  • Jeff Rubin: Expect Oil Prices to Rise Dramatically and Globalization to End [View article]
    is Jeff Rubin smart enough to be on TV? has he heard of the Internet? I don't have to fly my staff ANYWHERE, they use the Internet and GOTO MEETING.

  • Spain Crumbles [View article]
    Spain is not crumbling. they're better off than we are.
    You base your opinion on too small a problem.

  • The Housing Crash Isn't Over: Here's How to Profit [View article]
    the only reason real estate was big in the past is because of backward looking analysis back to gregarian societies like England where land owning meant wealth. but the only reason they were wealthy was because the land grew crops or fed cattle that were sold, thereby generating cash. raw land is the worst commodity -- it itself is useless without being able to generate cash. otherwise people would want to move to the Sahara and Death Valley (maybe with solar energy, people would, well, except the water issues ;-)).

    land is no different than any other asset. if it doesn't generate cash, it's not an asset, it's a liability.

  • Friday's Relief Rally [View article]
    First you TEAR IT DOWN, then you BUILD IT UP.

    Since he's starting off with the tear down, any up tick, any positive news well be AWESOME news.

    That is how you Turnaround a Company, a football team, or otherwise messed up organization.

    There were no message boards in the last several recessions, so this din of bashing from us 'common folk' wouldn't have made it to such a public forum.

    Now after the economy goes back up or at least STOPS going down, Obama will be able to lead the team back onto the field.

    Then it will be happy happy joy joy again and he'll get the credit for having told us the truth.

  • The End of the Credit Crisis  [View article]
    Ah, the whole point was to help the underwater homeowner, now you're saying good, it'll help the whole system for the underwater homeowner to have a 1 yr hit of $200k in income, for which he/she received NO CASH and therefore has to BORROW to pay the TAX on an invisible income. if said homeowner understood this HE'S GONNA GIVE THE KEYS BACK.

  • The Boons and Banes of Oil ETNs [View article]
    I would watch either short or long and buy strength in either one. i was commenting on philosphy of trading to STOP him from buying on the way down till he has no cash left.

    Cash is the only thing going up now outside of selective shorting. Cash is going up because alot else is going down.

  • Financial Stock Valuations: The Mirror Image of Tech Stocks in '99? [View article]
    As one commenter pointed out, it's down to a 12 year low. that's not exactly the worst ever, bottomless pit, world coming to an end price. so 2009 versus 1999 is that we have cnbc, btv, seekingalpha, zillions of financial websites, the babyboomers getting old and finally wising up to finance...that's what's changed.

    one financial conference on CSPAN this week had an economist point out that at the 1933 low, per person production was down 40 PERCENT. know what it is now after all this gloom and doom? 0.2 PERCENT. yes, not a misprint zero point 2 percent.

    NUMBAT1: Hope that your profit will get bigger. Fear that your loss will get larger.

    stop buying on the way down!!! wait for strength and buy when it goes up!

    do you buy houses when they're dropping or when their value is rising!

    please stop doing what you're doing -- DO THE OPPOSITE!

  • Causes of the Crisis: Econbrowser Speaks [View article]
    We argue, and the small group that can influence the laws before the mass finds out is who always benefits.

    maybe you should pay attention to the laws being passed now by the congress instead of listening to POST event analysis.

    everyone can be smart writing in hindsight.
