      Regarding the flaming - you'd think that most of your detractors would at least check your track record. It's pretty easy to see that you've been correct especially compared to some of the perma-bulls out there. Sep 29 09:36 AM

      @humblemaster

      The basic ideas of what you're saying looks correct, but your math seems to be off. Remember that percentages are multiplicative not additive. (i.e. 50% gain + 50% loss is not back to even)

      On a side note, I thought it was quite creative to compare the current state of the economy with the Coen brothers' movies. Sep 28 01:03 AM

      Lol, Bazookas, Rocket Launchers, etc... what, are we playing DOOM? (oh wait, I guess we are! How many extra lives & health packs do we get?) Sep 23 11:18 AM
    • Oil Price Speculation Truth Begins to Leak into Mainstream Media [view article]
      Um.... ok, Mr. Mystical Poet... how do you plan on getting the rest of the world to agree to 'regulating the price of oil to $40-80/barrel?

      And while you're at it, let's 'regulate' the price of gold to $10, the price of silver to $1, and my salary to $1M/year?

      Wow - I just read an AP article where Britain is completely banning (temporarily) shorting all together.

      @Marvin - psst, it's paradigm, not paradyne. But seriously I hear ya and am also feeling the pain.

      In regards to the article - I thought naked short selling has always been illegal, but only now are they finally going after the perpetrators. And I fail to see how this prevents *all* shorting, nor how it is making it illegal for stocks from going down?

      Lol, such harsh commentary! If you hate him so much, stop reading his articles.

      It's not an awful play. It comes down to how confident you are in whether these deals will go thru.

    • Gold May Not Be Just Another Commodity Anymore [view article]
      If anything, it seems that Silver might be the better play, since the Gold to Silver ratio has gone parabolic - as evidenced in the 'Panic Investors: Gold or Silver' article here on Seeking Alpha. Sep 17 02:58 PM

      @JBP

      Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing CLH 'root for the same team' as me, considering how often he was cheerleading the strong dollar & weak gold.

      While the reasoning 'sounds' good, I have to admit that seeing the Gold/Silver ratio go parabolic like in that chart makes me think that it's going to swing back to the previous ratio.

    • The Mess on Wall Street: $4 Trillion Down the Drain [view article]
      Well, let me add: Don't forget to mention that the CEOs and senior management of these companies made millions of dollars of profits/bonuses/salary over the past few years, and even if they don't get golden parachutes, they've already made their money. Sep 17 10:22 AM
