Dividend Aristocrats: 3 to Watch

After consistently hearing of the excess of US CEO's in pay and perks, I now only own pipeline MLPs and foreign stocks.
I do not trust US companies and that makes me sad.

Geithner to Blame for Outrageous Goldman Bonuses

You know I knew the Obama administration was far left leaning, but at least I figured that they would come down on a Socialist's arch enemy, Wall Street. (as well as the drug companies)
But I guess what they really are is crooked Chicago politicians who will lie down with anybody that they need.

U.S. Dollar Now Testing $1.50 Per Euro

I remember the Carter years. We were made to feel ashamed to be Americans, industries failing, and had inflation without jobs.
It was a bad time, and I think it is coming back.
I am an independent, did not like Pres Bush policies, (he betrayed conservatives and created Pres. Obama) but these far left people are starting to scare me.
Just thinking of Cap and Trade restrictions at this time is insane.

What other opportunites are you refering to? Bonds? Gold?

Too Big to Fail Banks: Greenspan Says 'Break 'Em Up'. What Are the Chances?

Where is Teddy Roosevelt, and his big stick? The US needs a leader, not another reality show.
How many times does Goldman Sachs have to cause financial crisis before they are shut down like Teddy did with JP Morgan?

Hooverville 2009: Where's the Anger, America?

It amazes me when I look at the US vs China. US is dissillusioned because of inept corrupt leaders (both parties) so leans to the left, China, having been to the far left, and experienced the distribution of wealth and the collective is rapidly moving to the right.
George Bush created Pres. Obama. Now look at the mess we are in.

When Will Deflation Turn Into Inflation? (And How Quickly?)

So, the Fed wants moderate inflation, but even with rates at 0 the banks are not lending to we mindless drones, only buying tresurey notes. But the dollar goes down because the rest of the world does not trust the USD.
So, buy Bonds, US or Foreign debt OR stocks and commodities?

Goldman Sachs: My Biggest Whiff of the Year

Goldman Sachs is the ultimate evil empire. They have precipitated most of the world financial crisis for generations. Their analysists routinely manipulate markets and they bilk shareholders by rewarding employees with lavish perks and compensation. And what makes them really nefarious is that both the Dem and Rep sleep with them.

Crude Oil and Gasoline Prices: Like Déjà Vu All Over Again

Goldman Sachs analysts are not stupid, they along with their superiors are criminals. They conspire to manipulate markets.

Soros' Latest Energy and Healthcare Plays

I follow with interest what Soros does. He has staked his claim by investment (contribution) money on the far left politicos future. And President Obama is a Chicago polititian and they always pay off. (I mean he told us all what he was going to do, he is honest in that respect)
So I think Soros reads tomorrows news today and gets a chance to past post the market.

Cutting Paulson Some Slack

If this Goldman Sachs connection to this and all of the other financial crisis is not great fodder for the conspiracy theorists I don't know what is.
These GS guys are really evil.

Market Outlook: Why I Am Scared

"But this time it is different, "
say the politicians and the Wall street desparados.

1920s Comparison Isn't So Far Off

I have deja vu that reminds me of the 70's - 80's stagflation, the worst of all worlds.

Using Closed-End Funds vs. Master-Limited Partnerships

They are suitable for IRA accounts as they do not pay out but rather give equivalent additional shares.
