All you have to do is hire a CPA to audit your performance. Then you can post an audited track record which would silence all your critics. I've worked for several partnerships that have done it in order to raise money..

Shouldn't cost too much given all the money you make...

If your indicator doesn't say what you want to hear... Just change indicators..

Is MasterCard Signaling Caution?

Is MasterCard Signaling Caution?

Yes.. do you really think people will let them get away with their biz model for long?

Now that the profits aren't hidden in the bank's black box there is going to be massive litigation. The lawyers smell money.

Remember in March they pumped financials and comsumer names first. Then held financials and consumer discretionary flat for several weeks while they pumped energy, materials, and tech to put the broad idices up higher.

Meredith Whitney was right and you were wrong.

only 1500 more points up on the Dow and we will be back to where you called the bottom!

Things are looking good!

"As I mentioned in last night’s wrap-up, it’s difficult to call an exact top to oil or an exact bottom to the markets"

that's for sure! you have been calling the top for 2 years! Will you please capitulate so that oil will go down.

End the Siege on Fortress Investment Group

Remember, there are high water marks on fees. So they earn 20% only on new highs, not a rebound to old highs. I worked for a hedge fund once that didn't earn incentive fees for years..

Also, this is not the most shareholder friendly comp[any.

Your qualitative analysis is good but I think you need to drill down on the numbers a bit more. There is a good reason why FIG trades at this price and sports a"distressed" type dividend yield.

Here is a tip Phil. Take everything to do with oil off your screen. It isn't really as important as you think! You need to move on because its getting really pitiful.
