Something has to give and if that means exports going to 0 and imports going to 0 for sustainability then it will have been these two countries fault for continually export without ever importing stuff back.]]> Thu, 11 Dec 2008 10:41:24 -0500

If investing was so easy then we would just need some math people, equations, and computers.

I like the 4 year ge bonds around 7% and will hold to maturity. I am hoping Warren is right in that they won't go bankrupt in which his preferred stock is then worthless. ]]> Wed, 15 Oct 2008 18:00:41 -0400

I would argue as follows. Here is a link to historical profits of the S&P500 pages.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/New_Home_Pa...
Future stock prices will follow historical trends only if profits rise at the same rate and interest free rate of return/inflation matches what we have seen in the past. If you believe that profits will grow as they have historically then go long term and keep buying stocks.

I would like the author to convince me that profits will keep rising and inflation will be controlled instead of showing some historical data. I don't think its a slam dunk that this will occur. ]]> Fri, 15 Aug 2008 14:47:40 -0400

I am explaining an example of something that can be characterized as a distribution. Then you can use all the charts and statistical analysis to say what will happen in the long run.

I suggest you take a class if you don't know if something can behave or described by a statistic.]]> Wed, 06 Aug 2008 17:37:29 -0400

I hate statisticians in stocks. This is how I would prefer statistics to be done. Prove first fundamentally that something should behave as a statistic. For example rolling a dice mathematically can be shown to have a uniform distribution.

This is how you treat statistics. See a few "rolls" from the past behavior and then declare it to be some statistic and apply it to the to the current period. No proof on why fundamentally it should behave as say a uniform distribution other then incomplete set of variables.
