    • Inflation Could Cure Our Economic Ills [view article]
      Good luck trying to rein it in once you reach your objective. It won't be much longer before people will realize that buying Treasury Bonds makes as much sense as lending on Subprime Option Arm. As long as they can roll the debt over and pay only interest we are fine, but when the truth sinks in the rollovers are going to stop. Oct 07 09:48 PM

    • Inflation Fears Are Inflated [view article]
      Ah..now I can explain it to all my elderly widowed sister. It doesn't matter that her home equity is disappearing and her food, utility, and medical costs are going up. Her fixed income is holding steady so there's no problem.

      Other than:
      #1. The fact that lower income families have their own beliefs.
      #2. It is an election year, and
      #3. "Belief trumps reality"

      Well beachtango,
      I can't argue with that. I guess NAR was right eight months ago and if certain media hadn't played it up there wouldn't have been so many foreclosures. Why if we all just believe and follow in the big boy steps, we'll all be fine. Don't kid yourself. The huge investors, and fund managers are just as human as we are.
      When they aren't out playing golf and letting programs run the show.

      I admit it, I'm ignorant on this. What is stopping Muni's from moving their insurance to Warren Buffet's new Bond Insurer? Feb 16 11:32 AM
    • Has Gold Reached Bubble Territory? [view article]
      "Gold is not an investment, it’s money." I believe it should be, and perhaps it will be in the future, unfortunately, right now it is not. Belief trumps reality.
      Belief always finds evidence to reinforce Belief, until something real destroys it.
      That something real may well have arrived to create the new Belief.

    • What Does Moody's Downgrade Warning Mean? [view article]
      I know "I'm" not smart enough to tell you a way to fix things. I'm just tired of all the Geniuses trying to tell me that "they are" and that the train wreck ain't happening. Jan 18 09:37 AM

      Moody's: "A Day late, and dollar short as usual"
      But not quite as far behind reality as Congress.
