Agreeing with "povstanets" just means you haven't lost the admitted "lunatic fringe" aspect of your beliefs yet. You can't possibly be older then 35 because past decades are instructive on why some of the nuttier theories on here aren't realistic. Here's an example of how confirmation bias and...

Great example of what massive delusion and extreme confirmation bias can result in. So the new jobs failed to meet "consensus". So what ? The bigger picture is the US added 140K jobs and the unemployment rate has trended down since 2010. In fact, this news report suggests that the unemployment...

GDP in China is still growing around 7% per year. Not sure what you want to restart, 11% growth isn't sustainable, but that hardly matters unless you are forecasting profound wealth for the world; you are instead forecasting the opposite. If China was in a mild recession, would the US go into a...

You seem mentally unstable and unable to stay on topic.

Random news items today included 200K in jobs added in the US. That is a far cry from any Depression scenario. I think you've lost touch with reality here.

The thread refers to "Extremist" posters and I didn't cherry pick anything, these types of forecasts are littered all over this site right now; in fact, they outnumber any other tyoes of forecasts. By grouping these forecasts in one thread, it will be easy in the future to determine how good...

This isn't occurring. Not even close. Some Elite Traders think it is occurring, but proper research says otherwise, and that the US slowing down or ending QE ( as they have done ) may stop the "Debt to GDP" levels from becoming all time highs. And if that is the case, why on earth would the US...

Higher personal tax rates for Americans are coming. In a fair world, the assets of core baby boomers who built up little empires on cheap tax rates and an easy job market would be partially used to pay for the debt and lack of social services they left younger people. Nothing about the US is...

You're a clown who makes things up to push your agenda. This thread was a simple list of actual projections made word for word in one place. Yet you seek to distort it with your half truths and lies, which is precisely the reason I left the site in the past. Now, I don't really give a shit, and...

UWTI back under 10; S2007S still holding a massive position.

This is the kind of comedy gold that we can quote in the future. You are saying an SPX of 940-1100 on this leg down.

This poster thinks depression is inevitable because a 80-90 year cycle is due :

Here we get a guarantee that the US will be third world in 8 years :

SPX at 1882, and we get this post : So S2007S is forecasting SPX to hit somewhere between 941 and 1100 on this leg down.

That isn't their job at all; you remain clueless.

Most of the bitching is occurring from people like you who want crashes not corrections. The vast majority of investors couldn't care less about any of this, they don't sell they just shift the percentages by asset class. Many have been conservative and are under invested in equities since 2008...

The US economy was in brutal shape in 2008/2009 and we saw exactly what kind of impact it had on Canada. It ended up being larger psychologically then real. We took measures expecting worst and had to roll back some of them when the obvious was realized. Canadian real estate isn't a bubble...

You've been wrong about everything for 6 years. If the US collapses like you think it will, here's an eye opener for you. Your job is history, and you'll be putting those special hamburger making skills of yours to use soon.

It's time you realized that you can't relate to this world and should just shut up about bubbles. There is NO bubble in real estate in North America right now, high demand areas are at capacity, developers can't keep up, and immigration is adding even more demand to these areas. That wooden...

What is your point ? I clearly said that Canadian tax rates have dropped the last 15 years. However, if you would like to go back to the 1980s, when I first started working, the tax bite in Ontario on even a new graduate was massive. In fact, many new professionals in Ontario were considering...
