    Cramer: One of the greatest bull markets of all time

    Whats your point. I was unbelievably bearish from the first week of March 2000 and I made a good bit of money from it, so did my subscribers at the time who I told to get off margin, not be long and at the very least go to cash if not short. I was right on that call, but its one trade, one idea...

    10% Market Correction Coming?

    The market will go up a little, then down a little, then up a little, then down a little. At some point it will go up a lot, at some point it will go down a lot too. All along the way folks will be trying to predict stuff and getting their asses handed to them for it.

    Cramer: One of the greatest bull markets of all time

    All the Cramer bashing really gets old. I will give you that he is annoying, I can't stand his show, however, until you have managed around a quarter of a billion dollars and managed to pull down 25 and 30% returns with consistancy you don't have much to say. I know, I know, I know, it was...

    Find Them--4000 Troops Wander Around Looking For Needle In Haystack

    If by some miracle of science we could bring back all of the leading generals and admirals of WW2 and let them run this war, it would be over in 3 months tops. Unfortunatly when it was over the EU would charge them all to a man with war crimes and our pussy politicians would probably turn them...

    i am dying to get in the pits

    I hear the internships are hard to get, but you can get em. I know a kid who is a Soph @ Columbia and he got an internship as a transportation analyst at Merril last term, it paid $15 an hour I think. They must have liked him a lot though, coz they offered him $132,000 to drop out of Columbia...

    Leading Republican Candidates Face Uphill Battle Against Democrats

    Well the thing with Florida is that the further north you go, the further south you get. You are correct about the Miami/Ft Lauderdale and Palm Beach area's though, and they tend to vote for the dems. However, the west coast has a lot of people too, about 3million in Tampa...

    Military says "Fuck parents!"

    They very much need to bring the draft back if we are going to win the wars we are involved in, but we do not have leaders with the courage of an FDR anymore. (for the record he instituted the first peace time draft right before an election despite everyone warning him not to, imagine a pol...

    90% Profitable Setup

    I think you are wrong about this. Properly used ET is a great source of clients, it was by far my most productive marketing tool, and to any vendor who can stand in and take and give the punches I would strongly urge them to advertise here, they will get the best return on their dollar here. I...

    Where in Iowa? I lived near Spencer until middle school, then near Ames. Went to UI for a bit, and nearly traded at the MGEX back in 96 but for a variety of reasons ended up not doing it and instead trading from the screen.

    Using real names on message boards

    I think this may have happened to me a few years ago. I had just gotten a new bank card, and the only place I had used it was for a sponsorship on ET and @ a resturaunt in Sarasota. When Baron went to bill me the account was empty, seems my card up and went to Spain without me. Brandon
