LMAO I looked at the chart, BRK.A is up 10% YTD.

How does the income side of the deals look for investors now? Say I own a 2 BR middle class house in an average neighbourhood. Let's say this house has a value of $400k. What rent income could I generate annually, assuming I'll have it rented out 90% of the next 520 weeks. What does one usually...

Until you blow up and stop trading forever.

Austin, I agree with most of your points regarding the psychology and setup for the Fed meeting. However, I strongly disagree with the portion quoted above. Here are some of my thoughts: a) I am not sure what market you speak of comparing "this market" to 1999/2000. If you speak of e.g...

Hefner? You gotta be kidding me. He owns 8 Million PLA shares - that's $88 million in value. Then he gets $1 million a year in salary for his Playboy "officer" position which is more like a marketing/representation paycheck. I couldn't find any better information but I'd be surprised if his...

The idiots ripping into Buffet, Cohen, Pabrai or Soros forget one thing: Buffet etc. never blew up. Maybe they have a bad year, maybe they underperform the SP500 over a couple years. But they never blew up while compounding more or less consistent returns over 10, 20, 30 or 40 years - talk about...

Next question: Are too many anticipating a quick bounce on a cut? The discount rate cut took many overnight shorts by surprise; many were badly hurt. Nobody feels good holding ES futures short overnight now with the Fed potentially acting any minute. Here's my best guess: Too many are...

I'd watch the oil stocks before shorting oil futures. They usually tank before the underlying does, not vice versa. E.g. in 2006 the OIH came crashing down with crude still trading at $70 and everybody was scratching their heads how stupid the equity traders were. Then over the next couple...

Chart looks like TOS - Think or Swim?

All bearish numbers = real All bullish numbers = cooked

How can it die? Did the FED cut to 0.5% so the yield differential disappeared?

Remember the ET rationale: If somebody has a net worth of > $10, $100, $1000 million then he must party with dozens of escorts and do lines on their butts every weekend otherwise he's a complete nutcase.

No doubt, let's all put on our tin foil hats to see the future. The SP500 will drop to zero by 2010.

Congrats on the trade bro. Don't let the critics detract you. Risk free $$$ is out there in heaps and heaps and its up to everyone if they are man enough to pick it up or not!

Hey I thought it was the bulls that were desperate for central bank action! :) BOJ will probably be on hold for some more time, a hike would be a huge (negative for the markets and positive for JPY) surprise.

180 ES points??? Oh wait.. 180 degrees.. from +4 points to -4 points. Terrible reversal!

JWH still struggling to stay afloat -> Trend Following is dead Enron bankrupt -> SP500 goes to zero Ellen Degeneres loves women -> All women are lesbian The world is so easy to explain!

Yes, just stay short.There is no money in ever going long. Not even for a trade. The markets will eventually implode some day and goto zero.

Just stay short, no need to use stops. It's just a sucker's rally with "no volume", no need to be worried about your bear market thesis.
