Barton Biggs

I agree about no need to be "cocky or ecstatic"
The key at this time is to be nimble.

Greenspan talking at 11a tomorrow, that could be big.

I think everyone sees Iraq is a mess. A complete waste of money and life. Bush chance of re-election is really dim. If there was a better democrat Bush really would be toast. Iraq was a big mistake and now everybody has stomach ache from it and they want to keep their money to boot !! Bernie Shaeffer also smells negativety from here.

Looks like Barton can still move markets!

Hehe. That was a nice pop, but let's see that last half hour, if it can be sustained.

Anyone can call a market. Is Biggs trading. Did he get long here? That's the acid test, otherwise he's just another talking head (and, apparently, from the observations of one commentator here, in need of a diaper change

)

i do not think that 'just anybody' can call the market on a consistent basis. if it were that easy 90+% of all traders would not be losers.

Ok I'm calling the market here, shorting 109600

Ok I'm out, this thing won't go down!
