      3 Key Steps to Fix This Fiasco
      In looking at historic home price increases since 1940, we have averaged about about a 15% increase in asset value per decade through 2000, but a whopping 60% increase in yrs. 2000 - 2008. If we have some 48 trillion of valuation out there in US homes, and even if 10% of that is already gone, aren't we due for another 35% correction before this bubble comes historically in line? this is theoretically 16 Trillion. What kind of GDP do we need going forward to mitigate that? This seems to me to be a crisis of unimaginable proportions. 700B may not make a dent.
      Please, input from more knowlegable people?

      Money Magazine: Clueless on Commodities
      Watch your technicals in this market. ALL commodities are wildly overbought. Add legislation that threatens to close the enron loophole, and you're going to see a real downturn on oil and all commodities.

      Keeping Alternate Energy In Perspective
      there is only one long term alternative and it is perfect. Algae. This story is so compelling anyone who researches it will see it's the answer. Consider biofuel yeild now of one acre now: 18 barrels from corn; 650 from palm; min 2500 (now) to max of 10 to 30 k from algae. It grows in the desert. with saltwater. or sewage. It needs sunlight and CO2, and delivers oxygen. it solves the Co2 problem, the food for fuel problem, the yield problem, and the land problem.

      If you are skeptical look at the members of the new consortium:

      We have a way out if we start NOW.

      ...And I Could Do Better Than Lieberman
      You know what? All this high and mighty talk about letting free markets be free is lovely, but as soon as the heavy losses come down, it's "Oh help us!" from everyone. Everyone involved in the S&L meltdown surely decried regulation - "There's a boom, you see!" And Enron and Worldcom, and Bear Stearns? "There's money to be made, get out of our way!" But once it all goes south, who pays? Uh uh. Taxpayers. Shareholders. Employees.
      What the free-free-free for all marketers forget is that there is social compact involved. People suffer as a result of their greed. And other people pay for their mistakes. Innocent people. People who will never even know why they are suffering and dying. (And with food on the block, it WILL be dying, now).
      But anyone with a real concience should know. Uncontrolled greed has consequences, and it's rarely good for anyone.

      Friday Outlook: Commodities, Emerging Markets
      Sword or no sword, from an individual investor searching the net for some kind of guidance that's unbiased and very informed, I think Fry is truly the GLD standard!
      Thanks, Mr Fry!
