    Here Comes The US VAT Tax....

    That was not at all what was tried. In the 1930s through the 50s and even 60s, the US was basically the big dog in manufacturing. We sold to the world. Many countries wanted to buy American brands, icons, etc. Now, the world sells to us. Don't know if you looked lately, but our trade...

    Newegg IPO

    Why is a very well-made car that is affordable, smart, well-run, high quality, and very popular -- less good than a company that makes gas-burning, hyper expensive cars that will also cost a lot of $$$ to maintain and are very impractical? Basically, they both do the same on 30MPH, 55MPH or...

    Gold USD10,000 !

    I think he means that if you don't quote your sources, you are basically plagarizing, which is a pretty low thing to do. It cannot be confirmed, it looks like you are trying to present the work of others as your own, as well as a host of other problems. Ivanovich is properly doing his mod...

    Online Trading Academy

    Without your broker statements, these are unsupported. It is not "worth it" if it does not work at least reasonably well. And almost all of them do not. Anonymous poster endorsements aside.

    Oh Oh, Might have to take a tax hit, got a HUGE profit thoughts?

    Also, I believe you can give tax free gifts of up to $10,000 per person (in USA). So if you have any dependents (each child, elderly parent, whatever), and you are in a position to do so...

    FXCM Sponsors the CNBC Australia Currency Challenge

    At least they are not doing a "1 day" contest like another sponsor here. But NONE of these contest holders have any clue about how to run a contest. They award prizes to the highly overleveraged newbie who accidentally guessed the right number of beans in the jar. All the others who crash...

    Peter Schiff: U.S. Rally Is Doomed, Gold Will Hit $5000

    It would be that gold has basically treaded water since then. Gold at $800 30 or so years ago, was a LOT more valuable than gold at its price today. Again over the long haul, gold is a terrible investment. It costs to store, pays no dividend, and basically USUALLY just spikes and goes down...

    You need to learn how to use the "Journal" section of this forum, as that is was this is. And if you are going to post funny numbers, at least have the decency to post the result of the LAST prediction. you sound like you are trying to give directions to an out of town driver... Seriously

    Peter Schiff: U.S. Rally Is Doomed, Gold Will Hit $5000

    Oh Oh, Might have to take a tax hit, got a HUGE profit thoughts?

    Also note, I believe you can re-file previous years' tax returns and spread a large dump of $$$ over previous years. But only worthwhile if your overall tax bracket is significantly lower. Dunno if it works for a "huge" profitable position or if more for salary issues. Also consider how it...

    Question about hedging futures using options

    OP (note the length): Firstly let me say I'm a futures trader so my knowledge of options is fairly basic. Hence, I have come to you wise people for your opinions. As a conscientious and risk adverse futures day trader (if that's not a complete contradiction in terms) I am always concerned...
