Meet Mr. Market: Jim Cramer [view article]
You defenders of Cramer are fools. He represents everything that is wrong with stocks. Go check his top picks from 2001 and see how many still exist or better yet read Ben Graham if you can read and think for yourself. I wont even bother to elaborate further because you obviously wouldn't understand. When his show goes off the air we will be near a market bottom. Great post Mr. Kenyon.

ReplyWhy I Bought Financials (Despite the Mess) [view article]
This is an oversold bounce - and in this case a rising tide is going to lift even the financials. We're still in a bear trend but we've gone so low, that a push up like yesterday will cause shorts to cover and that will drive it further up. I am also long UYG (@$14.89) but for something as rocket fueled as this, you need to have an exit strategy in your trading plan. I'm taking the profit off of the position for every 20% move up until the capital is recovered, with a stop at $14.02. I wouldn't be surprised if on this temporary rally UYG sees 24-28 over the next 30 days (black swans notwithstanding.) ReplyVolatility and Sentiment: Today Doesn't Matter [view article]
ICouldBeWrong, thanks for the ticker for the old VIX! And it went [I]well[I] over 30. ReplyWill the Fed 'Disappear' in the Next Decade? [view article]
xmplary: The FED's largest single stockholder is JP Morgan. The FED's stated mission is to look out for the banks' interests. Surely you do not expect FED policies to change as long as they exist?Eric Fox: You really think our current lame-ass excuse for a congress can understand any of this, let alone do something about it? Guesswhotoo6 was a lot closer; we the people will have to do it. And the only way we will is to stop electing liberals, liars and fools (as if there is much difference). Things may get bad enough next year for that to actually happen.

dividends are rear view mirror. does anybody out there see the economic expansion yet? ReplyNo Foole Like a Dubious Causality Foole II: Oil and the Market [view article]
what surprises me is the plunge protection team was not able to control the oil price run up. to me this group is unable to get the job done - bring stability to the markets.Reply

SID 40.12, +0.48, +1.2%) , the country's third-largest steel producer.
"You need steel" no matter the improvement project, the fund manager said. Steel producers comprise the largest portion of the portfolio, at about 9% of assets. "What's most important," Dzierwa noted, "is that this is a fully-integrated steel company. CSN has its own internally generated iron ore -- and we've seen how iron ore [prices] have been behaving -- in addition to steel."
Iron ore is the key material used to make steel, and its largest producers -- Brazil's Companhia Vale do Rio Doce and Anglo-Australian mining firms Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton Ltd -- have boosted their prices by at least 71% over the last year.
"[CSN] is producing steel at the same time as raw material, so it is not exposed to price fluctuations," Dzierwa said. "It helps manage margins much better than if you were at the mercy of an outside supplier." Reply

Yeh, lowered estimates. It's easy to beat that way. And you guys are the SMART money managers. Scary real scary. Good thing I manage my own. ReplyDiane Swonk on the Global Showdown [view article]
Your comments are all correct as RESULTS, but the CAUSES are still there to make things worse. Hedge Funds, Federal War Deficit, Oil Power, "the New World Order die-hards", and our lack of tangible assats like manufacturing plants. As an Economics professor, I always maintained that a dollar taken out of the economy must be replaced by value exceeding that dollar or utility that will grow capital. We are in SERIOUS TROUBLE worldwide and nobody in the developed and strong emerging countries will admit it and tackle the problem (nixon froze prices, etc.) Prof. Dan Remy ReplyDiane Swonk on the Global Showdown [view article]

Price Troubles, Again, But Still Hoping for a Break [view article]
Our economy is driven by low energy prices. Our intrastructure for public transportation is in trouble or public transportation does not even exist. OUR AIRLINES ARE FAILING TO PROVIDE FOR US BECAUSE OF ENERGY COSTS..... Our total productivity is driven by energy and unless WE BECOME INDEPENDENT OF ENERGY SOURCES OUTSIDE OUR SHORE WE ARE DOONED!!!! ReplyA U.S./China Comparison [view article]
I've been visiting China for more than 15 years. The progress there is staggering. What I can't figure out is what comes next, continued expansion or revolution of the downtrodden masses. How they will complete the transition from agrarian to industrial is beyond my imagination or comprehension. It will be hard to keep 900,000,000 people down on the farm.

So, everything that negates your portfolio gains is a conspiracy theory now? Reply
