      China's Hefty Stimulus Package - Bad for the Dollar?
      Just to expand on my previous comment. You could make an equally bullish case for the greenback going forward:

      -Recent turmoil proves it is still the worlds reserve currency
      -It probably overshot to the downside in the recent multi year decline.
      -US was first in, probably will be first out of global recession.
      -China stimulus should have a positive impact on global economy.
      -Check the chart on UUP if you question whether the bulls are still in control.

      I don't question your arguments as well but you are consistently biased in your analysis. You sound like sour grapes because the trade went against you. Better to be a realist than a bull or bear, I will be the first to jump ship if the dollar actually does trend down.

      Aren't you the guy who was touting commodities as a long term holding just as they were beginning to collapse? Based on your track record I will stay in the dollar at least for a while yet...

      IAU: Gold Regains Momentum After Recent Slump
      I agree but as they say the market can remain irrational longer than you can stay solvent

      The Economy's Worst Is Still Ahead of Us
      Like most peope I had no idea of the scope of the sub prime /alt a mess until I heard about it last year. But Bernanke and Paulson had all the data they needed to draw the correct conclusion. I don't know if it was a question of incompetence or lack of integrity that caused them to deny the problem for so long but they should both ride off into the sunset.

      The Shallowest Generation
      "If it's so "pedestrian" and "conventional&... we wouldn't be in this mess, or are you proposing that we got into this mess intentionally?"

      I used those terms to describe this piece, not the economic crisis. He is just regurgitating all the conventional explanations. Not that they are wrong, but I look to this site ffor unique insight to help me with investing as opposed to poorly written populist rants.

      Human Consequences of the Housing Bust
      So the human toll is 4 year olds having to play with strange kids and barbequeing husbands having no one to offer a beer to? quelle horreur! I also don't feel bad for the unemployed construction workers, at least they had a job to become unemployed from - if there was no boom they would have just been facing a job search sooner.

      Dollar Destruction: My Wealth Inequality Manifesto
      Some good points but also some very weak arguments. For example how do you make the linkage that because Goldman Sachs borrows from the fed discount window that they are obligated to recommend stocks in dying companies like GM. I'm sure if they did you would blame them for that as well.

      Staunch Government Intervention Needed to Avoid Full-Blown Depression
      "The very first step must be to maintain consumer spending to perpetuate trade with Asia. " - Bad idea to encourage the broke, debt laden middle class to run up the plastic even more. "That’s because the ramifications of curtailing exports from China will be price hikes on exported goods leading to inflationary pressures which could spiral out of control." -doesn't curtailed demand cause prices to drop?

      The Case Against Leveraged ETFs
      I have been thinking of trying something like Angela's approach, I'm new to technical analysis and am working on developing models now. I have a couple of questions. Is there a way to compare the funds based approache to options/futures on an individual trade to see how much you would be giving up? With the mutual fund you can't trade in and out intra day, is that correct and what is the implication there. Thanks....
