I hear you ... but I think you should look at it this way ... A doctor who specializes in skin diseases will dream that he has fallen asleep in front of the television. Later, he will wake up in front of the television, but not remember his dream. Would you agree?

"So which one is it?" I think we are saying the samething, Walter - the Obama tax plan will benefit the middle class more than the McCain plan - according to this study. Maybe you misunderstood my highlighting.

WTF ??? !!! This should make more sense to most readers .... "The Tax Policy Center, a think tank run jointly by the Brookings Institution and the Urban Institute, concluded that Obama's plan would ***increase ***after-tax income*** for middle-income taxpayers by about 5 percent by...

Excellent post, kid. Very good.

LMAO ! :D ... Very Funny !!!

The uptick rule was repealed roughly a year ago. EWJ (iShares MSCI Japan Index) 1 year return: -12.73% SPY (US S&P 500 Depository Rcpts) 1 year return: -13.65% Almost identical performance, during a decidely down period. And you want to change everything for approx. 1% difference -...

They have this pretty tough mixed martial arts guy - George St. Pierre. If anyone invades, they are counting on him to kick their ass. That seems to be the plan. At least for now ...

Lighten up, Rhino. I thought Indrionas' post was very informative. The alternative energy issue is a very vast subject. So any fact based education is appreciated. Facts detailing the current limitations of these alternatives is essential to being fully informed. Hopefully...

Add to that list the International Energy Agency. They released their assesment a few weeks ago or so - and they made the same point as nutmeg's link. Many commodities with no futures market have experienced sky rocketing price increases as well. I know this to be true empirically. Last...

First of all, a "shout out" from an ex-Nassau County resident. A friendly challenge to your argument, however. There are many who blame the decline of the dollar on the growing U.S. debt - which is certainly aggravated by the expense of the Iraq War - which was a distinctly Bush decision...

Good post rubibond007. In the mid 1990s I saw an internal report written by an analyst at a major oil firm voicing concern regarding the forecasted production decline in Brent crude oil and the potential problems with cargo pricing that could occur as a result. Late last year I was on a...

I already have selected my own dailies ... I already know it is free .... I am not interested in your opinions ... I am not interested in your deductive abilities (or, perhaps lack of) ... I was just curious about your roster, perhaps your top five ... Thanks for answering a very...

Which major english dailies?

Well said, Mr. Turkeyneck ... ----- Someone mentioned 1934. Do not forget that investors, not short-term traders ... INVESTORS, had 10 to 1 overnight leverage back then. Dialing the overnight leverage down to 2 to 1 for the generic investor was more infinitely more important...

Yeah, sure. Go ahead and reinstate the uptick rule. That will take care of the $200 to $400 billion in subprime write offs ... I mean, there is absolutely NO WAY that the $200 to $400 billion in subprime write offs had ANYTHING to do with selling off (sometimes the "aggressive" sell...

Thanks for posting this, $Cost - interesting info.

Re: the comments assuming scalpers make "the lowest trading income" and represent "the lowest wall st. profession" and etc. ... The scope of the issue should not be scalping alone, but the sophistication and/or the effectiveness of the scalping. Jim Simons' Medallion Fund, which is...

I assume that your argument is geared toward the general index ETFs like the SPYs, the QQQQs, etc. There are no futures that correspond with the sector specific ETFs like the XLV for health care, the XLU for utilities, the XLF for the financials, the SMH for semiconductors, etc.

Belinda, For what it is worth ... one of the previous posters said that a search on WTS reveals that WTS is not worth the time. Opinions are like a-holes on this site. So that alone means nothing. But .... One thing that I have noticed on ET from time to itime is that the senior...

I did read both of them. Your point wasn't that Canada is imperfectly balanced in terms of quantity of doctors - your point was that Canadian doctors are still in the process of leaving Canada for the US - because the system is "so bad" ... A point that is out dated, at best ... If...
