      Is Paul Krugman Serious? Sadly, Yes.
      Todd, you are obviously locked into an ideology which says taxes are bad. So let's eliminate all taxes and what will result, chaos and anarchy - that's bad too, as there would be no government, just individuals trying to get what is needed/all they can for themselves by whatever means possible. I suggest that you learn what taxes provide, such as national defense, local police, disaster relief, public schools, national parks, roads and bridges, space exploration, health research, etc. You take Krugman's words out of context; he is no dummy. Unfortunately, you are no smarty and will not get a Nobel Prizefor your ideas.

      Profiting from Hovnanian - Even in Case of Bankruptcy
      And what happens if HOV manages to survive this housing crisis? It did once before and the Hovnanian family is positive on its survival chances. HOV can rise well above 25 while the preferred, HOVNP, will be capped around 25. On a rising price of HOV, one would suffer a loss on this short - long positioning.

      Commodity ETFs Overbought; Gold Least So
      Furthermore, the author must realize that ETF's are simply tracking vehicles. SLV & DBS do not control all the silver in the world, only a small percentage. Other factors are driving the silver price and hence the silver ETF's reflects that. UNG makes no attempt to own natural gas, it only reflects the Port Henry hub price. The price of natural gas is set by supply and demand factors and UNG has nothing to do with setting the price for natural gas. The author has applied methodology used by market technicians for individual company stocks in an entirely wrongful manner.

      Commodity ETFs Overbought; Gold Least So
      Apparently the author of this article does not understand the basic concept of an ETF. DBA has as its investment object, "The Fund is designed to track the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index Optimum Yield Optimum Yield Agriculture Excess Return which is intended to reflect the agricultural sector. The Index Commodities consist of Corn, Wheat, Soybeans and Sugar." How can DBA be overbought if its underlying commodities are being played up in the commodities markets as a reflection of both supply and speculative factors? This article is bunk! Go tell the traders in commodities to stop doing what they are doing because they are driving DBA to be overbought. Ha!
