    4 Factors Fueling Oil Prices Higher [view article]
    Whatever! The article is saying that we Americans are screwed because of these four global factors and there is nothing we can do. You have forgotten one small component in your logical equation and that is Americans are not qoing to be squeezed by this government or anyone else. There will be a revolt or 21st century American revolution and the first victims will be the American politicians who will be voted out and replaced with individuals that will actively seek alternate energy solutions and look for better ways to support American people. Who knows in the future we may be able to find writers who will offer solutions rather than tell us to suck it up. Reply

    4 Factors Fueling Oil Prices Higher [view article]
    What a silly article! You cite the reasons why the price of oil HAS been increasing - these reasons are already well reflected in the price of oil. High oil prices are self-defeating. Oil prices are going to fall, folks. You read it here first. Reply

    What is your feeling on PORTS? The company is very well run and has consistently exceeded shareholder expectations. Do you see major upside from where they are today? Reply

    Global Equity Market Caps: U.S. Loses Ground to China [view article]
    China is hellbent on photocopying the successes -- and shortcomings -- of the United States. They're rationing gasoline and fixing food prices in a futile 1970's-style inflation war.

    Also, the two-letter abbreviation for China is "CN"; "CH" is Switzerland. I was a bit confused.

    Jim Cramer's Mad Money Lightning Round: 1/30/08: FLEX Your Muscles [view article]
    One other comment. Remember the show when Cramer was wearing Under Armour clothes and he was raving about it? Now it is a sell. Typical Cramer. Buy high, sell low. This guy is unbelievable as is CNBC for keeping DR. UNH (remember that one) on the air!! Reply

    You may or may not be correct regarding the future of our markets, Victhom, but you are right about Cramer. He is awful at picking stocks. Anyone who listens to him is an idiot. I watch CNBC all day, but when Cramer's show comes on, I change the channel immediately. I do not know why CNBC treats him like he is some sort of expert. His history over the past two years is so bad that they should take him off the air. Reply

    Jim Cramer's Mad Money Lightning Round: 1/30/08: FLEX Your Muscles [view article]
    Hey Jim just want to show you what an Economist with a PHD from Harvard says about US economy in 2008-2009....May be you will stop Pumping Banks and Financials...LOL

    Risk of a Global Recession Following the U.S. Hard Landing?
    Nouriel Roubini | Jan 30, 2008
    It is now clear that the US economy is already into a recession that started in December 2007: the data on December employment, retail sales, manufacturing ISM, housing and other macro variables confirm it. And the 0.6% growth for Q4 GDP confirmed that sharp slowdown of the economy in Q4 and its tipping over into a recession by December. It may take –as usual – almost a year for the NBER to formally declare that a recession started; but when that decision is made it will be clear that the great US recession of 2008 started in December 2007 or – at best – Q1 of 2008.

    At this point it is clear that the debate has shifted to how deep this recession will be, a mild one lasting two quarters as the new consensus claims or a deeper, longer recession – lasting at least four quarters – as I have been arguing for a while.

    It is also clear now that this US recession will lead to a global economic slowdown – short of a global recession that would occur if global growth were to be below 2.5% - and to actual recession in a number of individual economies.

    Nouriel Roubini predicted a deep and prolonged recession in the U.S. economy, perhaps lasting as long as a year. He added that it would inevitably affect the world economy.

    www.bloomberg.com/avp/...


    The main points:

    - the US has already entered a recession and this recession will be protracted and severe, more so than the mild recessions in 1990-91 and 2001;

    - whatever the Fed does will be too little too late as you cannot resolve problems of insolvency with monetary policy and as it takes years to clear a glut of housing, consumer durables and automobiles;

    - the rest of the world cannot decouple from a US hard landing; when the US sneezes the rest of the world catches the cold; and this time the US will have a severe case of pneumonia; thus expect significant contagion to the rest of the world; thus, there will be a significant global economic growth slowdown.

    NOW YOU YOU CAN SAY WHATEVER YOU WANT THIS MARKET WILL SANK HARD AND FAST...IT WILL BE A "HARD LANDING"....COPY THAT HOUSTON???

    I’m sure the “devil is in the details” holds true to this comment.

    If you buy into the hype around fundamental indices (which i do), I would want to see how much the china market has in pure cash flow (top line and free cash flow) versus profits (net and operating) on both a top and company level. My bet….china’s share makes up less than 1% of the world.

    I realize stock sell on future expectations…but please…besides..china is headed for a civil war. The cowboy capitalism of the last few years cannot be extrapolated out indefinitely.

    am i right eric?

    Walmart has about 1 million employees, largest private employer in the world. At least that's what Marketwatch.com says on WMT's profile at:
