      Goodbye, Bill; Goodbye, Microsoft?
      Remember - MSFT had virtually no competition in the 90's except Apple ?

      Winslow - You are absolutely correct - make sure you vote for Obama and he will make all your dreams come true except some of us may consider them nightmares.

      madmilker - Excellent - I can assume the nuts and the Hershey bar did not refer to almonds !
      I know I'm getting old and senile but do I not remember all the flag waving and bragging about "Made in America" advertising by Sam Walton a few years back ? Then all of a sudden (it seems) damn near everything in WMT is from China ?
      WTF.

      Oil's Supply and Demand
      Very good except your conclusion that:
      "I think the best piece of evidence to support my fundamental supply and demand theory is that the price of oil is not the only commodity price that is skyrocketing. Food prices, metal prices and all energy prices in general are skyrocketing because the developing world is rapidly increasing its consumption of all commodities. "

      The cost "price" of oil is the driving force that is directly or indirectly responsible for the other increases. Cause & effect.
      Does the price of the other commodities determine the price of oil ?
      e.g. If the price of rice goes up does that result in the oil price to increase ?

      NYSE Short Interest Rises to Another Record High
      Your comment confuses me almost as much as Shiller does.
      I think Shiller confuses prices with value. Speculation and very shoddy loans caused prices to go up - REAL values technically did not change. Prices will go back to where they belong
      Owner occupied is never done as an investment per se. Everyone has to have a place to live (occupy). Like most everything, prices go up - so the intrinsic value increases even though as a house gets older it certainly doesn't get "better". Your house payment "rent" allows you at some point, normally, to recoup all or part of that "investment"... I have never lost money on a house and had to sell 3 as a result of the military moving me around. It was cheaper to buy a house than to find one to rent and if I left without a "profit" I considered the payments as rent plus being able to deduct interest on the loan. If I made a "profit" then I considered it living rent free plus a return on my "investment"...
      If you consider him having a better grasp of the housing situation then there must be a misunderstanding or a typo in the statement:
      "Robert Shiller predicts that home prices will drop more than 10% in the coming years."
      Wow - when can we expect that ? You could make that statement any time now and in the past and in the future and you would always be correct eventually as housing, like the market and the economy is cyclical but in the long run they increase in Price and I guess in Value. The fact that housing has declined more than 40 % quite recently (and not done yet) I suppose that validates his prediction ???
      (Have to remove my firmly planted tongue from my cheek now).
      I predict oil will go up (and down) next week.
      Housing will take a little longer.
      Robert Shiller predicts that home prices will drop more than 10% in the coming years.

      "Rubinomics" Is Back
      Answer me this grasshoppers- IMINSKY writes:
      "The Democrats will straighten things out again, and bring back more of the "level playing field" which working people love....only to have
      the nation shafted and sucked dry again when Republicans gain power down the road."
      If things are always so great under the Dems - then why the hell do the Reps regain power ?
      Think about it and then look at the Dem congress today and you will be able to predict what will happen 4 years from now.

      Options Trader: Thursday Outlook
      OK - you win - when you start using MSNBC's chief asshole and Kucinich to bolster your political agenda you don't need me to read it.
      May you and Obama & Nancy & Harry save us all. I suppose I will have to endure 4 more years of pissing & moaning about how Bush screwed things up so bad we won't be able to fix it after all when they all fall on their respective dumb asses.
      Sorry - Pity - bye.
