Coke vs. Pepsi - Cramer's Mad Money (8/19/08) [view article]
You may give Pepsi higher points, but I'll stick with Coke. ReplyCoke vs. Pepsi - Cramer's Mad Money (8/19/08) [view article]
Great article. The part on automobiles was especially interesting. Maybe GM shot themselves in the foot with their 10 year 100000 mile warranty. That's got to stimulate people to hold onto their cars longer (thus potentially sabotaging new car sales). ReplyTop 14 Stocks Going Ex Dividend in Early September [view article]

So let's see here. If I by all of these stocks, grab all the dividends and then sell the stocks, I will make around 0.9%. With the market jumping around 1% to 2% a day what a wast of time that would that be. ReplySafe Haven Investments Amid a Global Crisis [view article]
I was invested in PMs in 1988, at no time did Platinum ever "drop to $100" in one day or any other time. It came close to a $100 drop and approcahed price of gold at the time, around $400. No one who could print such a thing has any understanding of markets, research, or historical prices whatsover.But then, Marc Anthony is very poorly researched and has very shallow understanding of all the topics he touches on. Platinum's source for example.
Anthony recently this week posted on the SLV board that diamonds are made in Hell and Platinum in heaven. His rationale? Diamonds undergo high heat and pressure as they transform one type of carbon to another, and because Platinum is a heavy element that came from 'space'. above.
However, anyone with even rudimentary science, physics, chemistry, or astrophysics knowledge, is aware that platinum (like all heavy metallic elements in the universe), was created in Type1 Supernovae events where heat and pressures are enormously higher than those which create diamonds. The heat of a supernovae is 6000 TIMES the heat of the sun's core! Talk about hell!
Anthony's contentions equating previous oil emabrgo to today, are simply incorrect. Gas stayed cheap after the oil embargo, so people went back to big gas guzzlers. Today gas will NEVER be cheap again, and the future is;
a) Much smaller cars with much smaller catalytics that use much less PGM metals.
b) Hybrids, electrics, and Ethanol fueled vehicles that will use much lee to no PGM at all.
The Ford and GM sales falling off a cliff is merely a harbinger of what is to come. Smaller engines, with far less PGM metals in catalysts. Reply

So Cramer’s only willing to give that company four points, and Pepsi 4.5. Score: 4.5-4, Pepsi.Say did they reverse the points here? Or am i reading this wrong? Reply
8 Ways to Profit if OPEC Dumps the Dollar [view article]
It is difficult to overemphasize the role of trust in a debt relationship. All the oil earnings and Japanese savings are on loan to the US; but the US, thanks to losses in the unregulated financial sector,cost of war, and imprudent consumption, cannot afford to pay anything on these loans. Once the lender starts getting negative returns, he'll look elsewhere. The Euro is the first currency that comes to mind, even though the European economies simply cannot absorb the trillions now in US debt paper. Hopefully, a new chapter is being opened from 2009.

actually the US treasury debt is reasonably low and manageable (measured in terms of % of annual GDP) compared to other first world countries. What is alarming is the drunken sailor spending of congress and the way they want to pander to voters, buying votes with more spendoing funded by debt to be paid by America's young. The democrat candidate would like to blow the lid off public spending. There is no benefit he won;t promise to get more votes. And the bad news is there is no way he can tax the rich to pay for it. They don;t have enough to fund it. The middle class will continue to get hurt, and will have to pony up higher taxes and get hit with more AMT with fewer deductions and lower future SS & Medicare benefits.

Silver Analyst:Regarding the platinum price plunge in 1988, I cited the source in my article and even indicated page number (page 103). Go there read the USGS document regarding the event, in third paragraph to the end of page 103:
minerals.usgs.gov/mine...
On page 103: "In December 1988, the platinum market reacted strongly to an announcement by Ford Motor Company that it had
developed a platinum-free automobile catalyst. Spot platinum
prices fell to $100 per ounce on the day of the announcement..."
It says fell to $100, not fell by $100. You could be right, but that was the wording of the USGS document. I may contact them regarding this.

My long term chart of platinum does not show a plunge from $500 to $100 in 1988. Perhaps you mean a $100 drop?Reply

Interesting to review the two viewpoints regarding the direction of the US dollar although supporters of a stronger US dollar going forward were rather shallow with the facts and blind in not considering other components that will lead to a diminishing US dollar . . . . good for AU.Whether it is losing the status of world currency reserve, ever-increasing US government expenditures & obligations, US government increasing committment towards existing entitlement programs, US Congressional enticement of additional entitlement programs, US government inability to curb fraud/waste/abuse, US Congressional representatives not being held accountable in regards to financial and monetary activities - including the implementation of earmarks, and increasing local/state/federal taxes.
Sooner or later the majority will recognize that gold will have the value to buy freedom and benefit. You can have the digital US dollars backed by the integrity & confidence of the US Congress. Reply
8 Ways to Profit if OPEC Dumps the Dollar [view article]
This is a very practical and realistic article. US has already $ 9,000,000,000,000+ deficit and climbing upward every second and thus, weakening dollar strength. Hugo Chavez and Ahmadinejad (and Russia) are our adversaries and they want to destroy US economy/power at any cost. Other so called US friends in OPEC are also losing money by selling their only commodity (oil) in dollars. They are no stupid. Why should they help us when their cost of living going up due to weak dollar?Our clueless, visionless moron politicians in Washington just keep on bickering on energy policy since 1972. Right now, we are tranferring over $700 billion wealth per year to purchase oil from OPEC countries. We could have solved this energy problem by now if these morons in Washington acted intelligently. It's time to replace these inefficient politicians with good people who will look after our country's interest rather than their own pocket/power. Reply

This is a good article and for those who thinks its hogwash need to get their heads out of the sand or take some serious medication .My guess most of you skeptics are democrats who want to deny that its their fault that the US is in this situation by refusing all sorts of energy such as drilling and sending all our money to the OPEC nations and china who may also do the same thing or just by up america ,what ever is left .
