Abe, thanks for you kind words.
You make good points regarding Congress. Term limits would help greatly as most members of the senate for example seem to stay until they're carried out in a stretcher. Look at the money most make post their so-called service. Daschle was a good recent example although certainly not alone. With the election cycle for incumbents they want to deliver "quick fixes" consistently rather than long-term solutions. Perhaps term limits aren't the only answer, but it's sure a start.
The toothpaste is out of the tube regarding Glass-Steagall. We really have Sandy Weill to thank for its demise. I'm not against its repeal just that regulators weren't prepared and ready to monitor the consequences in the aftermath of the new order.

Macro Man: If you can short the ETF then okay. If you're going to use FXP either as a day trader or strategically over a short period (one-three weeks) then use it.

C'mon Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! I love you guys down under. How many people do you know there who drove all the way around your lovely island? We did and saw every square foot......er, almost....of it from Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Albany, Perth, Broome, Fitzroy Crossing, Darwin, Alice Springs, Ft Douglas.................. Our Aussie friends said, "...You're doing what? You did what??!!" Yep.
When MAC can be used for all my programs I'll get one. I've been told you can get VMWARE or some such thing but then others say "don't do it"! Not gonna do it......wouldn't be prudent.
UNG? I don't give a rip about the MACD! It's just on the chart and I haven't removed it in the interest of time. So, I guess you didn't like the idea of using the baked beans then. (snicker)

Larry Kudlow is someone I've known since the 1970s when he was an economist at Paine-Webber. I found his writings informative and helpful then.
Now with CNBC the job is not to tell it like it is but pump, pump, pump.........or, pimp, pimp, pimp. I don't watch the network ever so don't know what he's pimping and pumping nowadays.
You're seeing a lot of "happy talk" this week. (Why the folks at Standard & Poo aren't in the slammer with Madoff is beyond me.)
I enjoyed Jon Stewart's ripping of Crammer last night and thought he had things right.
By the way, the greatest smokescreen being sold as an elixir is this "uptick rule" BS. Reinstating it will have absolutely no effect on market direction. There have been days when financials have fallen hard and watching the intraday tape you can see plenty of upticks on the most bearish 1 minute chart. So, don't let boy wonder fool you.
As to "brilliance".........w... Boisterous Bob, how much do I owe you again?

Good luck with UNG!
