Yes, the ramblings of some Americans on here are more emotionally based then researched or accurate. Its kind of a theory they have US was struggling so Canada must struggle to, and its not relevant. For example, the reality is Canadian big banks are an oligopoly with a guaranteed domestic...

You are delusional, presenting some of the worst technical analysis I've ever seen from any source. You can't base ANY overall market move of 4-20 years duration on past years. Its based on new fundamentals every time, with 2008 being the market reaction to one of the worst negative events in...

The scary thing is when such ignorance ( eg the belief that Iraq had WMDs ) is acted upon and great harm is done as a result. Why on earth have these people chosen to remain utterly uninformed 9 years after ? I can understand why so many Americans were fooled prior, because they were bombarded...

I found it interesting to read on here that a poll claimed 49% of Republicans believe the majority of Black Americans are racist. Could be pure bs but if it were true that's a horrible number ( the 49%, not the fantasy "majority" of Black Americans ). In other news, CBS "Big Brother" has a...

I wonder how you would feel if Zimmerman was black and patrolling your neighborhood armed. Would you just accept he's making your neighborhood supposably safer ? Would you appreciate being followed and how would you know he's not a criminal ? What if he had known friends you suspected were in...

Don't you have a KKK meeting to get to ?

Also, you seem to cut your winners short and let your losers run. So how many "winners" you have is irrelevant to making money. The lack of a trading plan is the reason. Go ahead, post your stop loss and exit strategy on your latest short. Surely you have them ? Its confusing when you post...

America seems to constantly be a polarized, divided country that often bases its opinions not on common sense but other criteria like political affiliation and state location. I'm not saying America is a nation of bigots, what I'm saying is perhaps the environment is somewhat poisoned and...

I'm sure somebody on here will then say that he's secretly buying these stocks for the Fed. :D

No signs of a recession for numerous years. In fact, World Bank has the US GDP growing by over 3% in 2015. So it seems obvious to me that if we get to say early 2016 without much of a bump in corporate profits or an economic slowdown, that the market levels will be healthy. And until we know...

The Political forum tends to send a clear message that labelling people by skin colour and supposed extremist politics is an everyday part of American life. To me its like revisiting 1960s America 50 years later. Is this simply because the Political forum has been hijacked by an eccentric...

Many Americans on here seem to embrace violence in their lives and struggle with healthy attitudes about race relations. Certainly, the gun lobby has been extremely successful in ensuring that the US will continue to post huge crime rates compared to the rest of the Western world. In fact, there...

Nice forecast, the whole thread became Jack Hershey giving this guy advice. Just an elaborate set up for Jack it seems.

Some of you guys take incomplete information and run with it to support the conclusion you want. This was no cut and dried case. When OJ Simpson was acquitted. part of the reason he got off was the victims had no way to testify on their own behalf. One of the only sure things in this case...

Look, in all seriousness, I would feel far less safe knowing that Zimmerman guy is patrolling the streets with a live gun in his pocket then the young man without a gun. Most Canadians have a different take on what we think is normal. Tell me something, what training and legitimacy does this guy...

Seriously now, check the data. Canada has far less crime then the US. Its not even close. Prorate it by population, doesn't matter. You can live in denial but the stats don't lie. Here's an example I just whipped up : Murders - Memphis 157 ( 2012 ) population 652K ( 2011 )...

Crime rates in Canada are absolutely dwarfed by American rates. Are you claiming that Americans are just way more prone to violence then Canadians, or could it be that guns encourage or facilitate crime ? I don't expect you to understand this. It's like telling an alcoholic to stop drinking...

I'm just a little frustrated with the political and ethnic polarized stuff that seems to dominate this section, including a definate undercurrent of racism at times. I suppose Americans killing each other is a topic far beyond what I could ever make a dent in. I guess I did read a brief...

This attitude is a good example of why the US is going to hell. No wonder your schools get shot up, theatres aren't safe, and kids get shot by neighborhood watch. The idea that every day citizens need to protect themselves with guns, shooting to kill, is absurd. But this absurdity is an...

Obviously, you are not a rational person. You make killing someone sound like a spat at an argument at a school, and somebody has to be suspended for a day or two. Earth to Lucrum, the kid is dead. Regardless of the details, a trial must occur.
