The $50B+ in product that AAPL sold in one year in China must confuse you. That's very real, AAPL doesn't lie about their sales. All those consumers have real disposable income in a country where not many years ago most were poor. Their huge population can be a game changer if they even have...

Arming citizens is basically giving everyone a part time job as a cop on the street in their every day life. It's an unrealistic ideal that reminds me of video games. And it's real life, where one mistake means death(s), and whatever rules of conduct that pro gun people think will occur go out...

Several of the Middle Eastern wars in recent history were armed by American and Russian projects. Guys like Bin Laden directly benefited from some projects. More wars and more weapons is never a good thing. Weapons manufacturers have encouraged this situation, which can occur when pure...

Trump panders to ignorant, fearful people who think guns make themselves safer when quite the opposite is true. Anyone reading this P&R forum can see how stupid some Americans are, and how proud they are of their ignorance. These people love to jump on every incident to declare that more guns is...

Why bother, Nitro is an idiot savant with no common sense at all. His theories are nuts on many topics. Ask him about what his models predicted about the SPX when it was 1100, or when he declared that only companies that paid healthy dividends had any value at all. He's added some nutty theories...

Mortgages must confuse you. Do you think the US lacks the assets to back their debt as needed ? Do you think they will miss some payments ? Is there some benefit to the lenders to demand full principal back, or does that not just mean any number of other private lenders can loan the money ? You...

Some of these guys predicted the correction that occurred was the start of a 40-50% crash. That was never going to happen, why on earth would people sell stocks like AAPL when they still generate a lot of profits ( with some growth still ) ? P/E levels are nowhere near bubble levels, and both...

And he's admitted to blowing up a hedge fund including all his close friend's money. While these things can occur, most people learn from these events and lose the arrogance. All trading and investing involves taking the best position possible, always with a fair degree of uncertainty mixed in...

Obama has been at worst a neutral strength president, and an argument could be made that Republicans haven't allowed many of his policy decisions to go into practice. Blaming him for the mess he inherited is not fair. And he gets a lot of flak because he's black and has a different ethnic...

Tough calls ? No. Pretty much the whole world said don't invade Iraq, there are no WMDs, that the premises being put out there were total bs. But Americans bought it hook, line, and sinker. I remember conversing with some Americans before the invasion, they believed so strongly in the war and...

Yet another totally useless forecast from Nitro. So the Cubs were swept by the Mets and then the Royals beat the Mets in 5. Jays were actually the pre-playoff betting favorite at 3-1. So I'm not sure in what world you live in but your post is ridiculous. Just like your ideas on equity markets...

This is just wrong on so many levels. AAPL share price may have declined on the drummed up fears that their China sales would slow, but once earnings were out, it was confirmed that they still sell a shit load of product in the world. Earnings are up year over year by around 33%. Every...

You mean "lies" like this one you posted about in August : Numbers are out now, look at the sales figures. Something smells about your claims, it's almost as if you pulled all of them out of the sandwiches you make back at your rental apartment.

Every time I see another one of these US stories, the possibility that the instigator actually posts on this site comes to mind. The cop acted in exactly the way one might expect from any number of posters on this P&R section.

Man, how does a country like the US produce so many creepy guys like you ? Your racist ideas are so in your face; obviously you had no positive influences in your life to explain to you why this line of thinking is immoral.

Hedge prior to AAPL earnings ???

Valient has been in the news in Canada for numerous years. I mentioned it on this site when it was called Bioval and traded somewhere around $20 ( up from around $10 ). Turns out, it continued to trend all the way up to $340.

Again, and I've said this many times before, a rising stock market does not necessarily mean the US economy is doing well. This is the inference some of you make, and it's a fallacy. What a rising stock market says is that corporations are doing well. And at no point in history has the US system...

This just proves that America is gradually getting stupid about these things. Shocking really how gullible the public is in terms of listening to media and special interest groups. The Iraq War was a recent example of this. Pretty much the whole world knew it was a bad idea predicated on false...

I think you let the extreme bearish sentiment on this site get to you and ignored the rather obvious signs that the market wanted to go up. My guess is, big players knew the large IT companies were likely going to do well, so that is why the first few mediocre earnings reports were mostly...
