    • Exxon Shareholders Suffer a Windfall Loss of 13.7% [view article]
      But scorpion has in fact nailed the most important answer in this country today - - why W started an unnecessary war. Thanks for that (can we prosecute him for murder now? please? Cheney too?)
      Ernie - - stop, please. Those other companies are not evil.
      CLH - - A fool? How many books have you written? And are you telling me McCain is not a fool? Have you seen the photo of McCain hugging Bush? There's no fool like an old fool and he's old.       Sep 01 07:06 PM
    • Criminal Past Haunts Bidz.com - Barron's [view article]
      Rachel - - hmmmm... whom to believe? the source which had the power to trash Fannie and Freddie's price 2 weeks ago? or shady management of some 2 bit online auctioneer? I'll go with your take, ignore the BIDZ supporters and take my position Monday, as my user name suggests. Sep 01 02:31 PM
    • Is the Commodities Bull Market Over? [view article]
      epeon - - thanks for the voice for coal. In spite of my user name I am long coal ... cold weather is coming and how much lower can it go? I may have to wait for Sept but that's OK ..... Aug 12 12:04 PM
    • As Financials Go, So Go Stock Markets [view article]
      3 comments with outright, unqualified praise but none mention the obvious - - could you write a little less ... this is a blog not a book.

      Fedex11 - - could not agree more. July was my best month all year.
      (I don't want to talk about today however ... ouch)       Aug 04 05:07 PM
    • Five Key Chinese Energy Sector ADRs [view article]
      I usually get annoyed at submissions of this length but by God, yours was worth every word. Like one of those expensive research reports but without the cost. Thank you. Jul 31 05:12 PM
    • Insiders Preparing for Major Drop in Oil Prices [view article]
      too many words. we are all very busy. try harder to boil it down and do us all a favor. Jul 28 10:53 AM
    • Short Oil as a Long Investment [view article]
      Chistletoe - - Thanks for writing your thoughts down. Now I know you are a fool and a rude one at that. This forum is not advanced by baseless insults of people who are generous enough to share their time and ideas.
      Disclosure - - long DUG and making $ at it (isn't that the idea?)       Jul 21 09:05 AM
    • Is the Nasdaq OMX a Good Buy? [view article]
      David: I liked your article. Sure, I prefer shorter offerings but this is exactly what I look for on SA - - opinions outside (and even about) the mainstream press. Not everyone knows about the Barrons effect
      (many do but this helps new traders) Please keep writing.       Jul 13 11:57 PM
    • The ABCs of the Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac Problems [view article]
      Ari 5000 - - Thank you for the simple, clear message I needed to hear: "trade to zero" ... sounds like a safe short.... It helps that Barrons agrees with you.
      "Did U Think" - - Thanks for the most interesting remarks. What does NAU stand for?
      Anyone know who is weaker, FNM or FRE ??? So tired of hearing them mentioned in the same breath when they have shown some differences in trading and they have differences in fundamentals.       Jul 12 10:13 PM
    • Could iShares MCSI Emerging Markets Fund Beat the Bear? [view article]
      I agree with the idea that ETF's are the best way to play emerging markets but recommend DEM vs EEM ... change one letter ... get more $$$. Jul 03 11:17 AM
    • Beware of Crumbling BRICs [view article]
      Thanks to both authors. I had a feeling India was in trouble and was glad to have my suspicion confirmed. I know China is dicey these days so I am only 10% long there. I am turning towards Brazil and appreciate the positive sentiment (relative to RIC). Thanks again. Jul 03 11:14 AM
    • Short Interest in Merrill Lynch At New High [view article]
      Thanks for confirming my good judgement in shorting this noble wall street firm last week. I am enjoying the ride because it seems their
      CEO got somewhere north of 80 mil last year for trashing the firm and the stockholders didn't seem all that upset to me. I'd be upset.       Jul 01 09:43 AM
    • The 'Peak Oil' Myth: New Oil Is Plentiful [view article]

    • XO Communications: Open Letter to Carl Icahn from a Minority Shareholder [view article]
      Come on, Carl, I am one of the few holders of IEP. I think many are scared away by the 90+% you hold. But I trust you. Karen Finerman likes you and I trust her judgement. I think you make investing more interesting ... who else would have stepped into the troubled courtship of YHOO by MSFT ? Please listen to my friend Ed and to our friends at Amalgamated Gadget ... you will not only benefit financially in the short term but the enhancement to your reputation
      as a good guy will pay dividends for you and your family for years to come. Whadda ya say? Do it for me, Ed and Karen.       Jun 22 09:41 PM
