Turbulent Times Require a Disciplined Approach to Investing

As per usual I find that all I've been doing is picking up some of those financials through shear research...
Also consider our dear friend overreaction which produces its corrollary;
Oversell...

Brackish Investors and Their Impending Doom

more FEAR AND PARANOIA!!!!!
Slow down a tad. Take a deep breath and say this too shall pass.
And,oh yes, try to use the brain for more than an emotoinal charging machine please

The Death of Consumption?

more of that wonderful 'socialist' help for the people who never seem to get any help if they, or you, should mess up. Big business gets the help. The people get the 'moralizing' lectures....

Friday's Employment Report: A Sobering Dose of Reality

Let us try this one on for size, rather have a socialistic kind of keep people busy doing something constructive in a 'new deal' fashion or have a lot more social unrest. remember things like 'Banana Republic'?

America's Fiscal Crisis: Tough Decisions Needed Now

Mr Quinn does it again! My opinion tends to be relying on self, pretty much like some other posters did on your previous articles but I also suggest ask ANYONE running for any position the tough questions... and listen just as 'tough'... after all they are supposed to WORK FOR YOU...
And here I grump wondering when our loons will go for an election north of you.....

The Great Consumer Crash of 2009

buyitcheaper, you hit the nail on the head. I keep harping about the abysmal knowledge of a lot of people about even concepts like househod budgets. I know a lady who with a grade 2 level of understanding of math is mystified when she comes across so many people who either do not know how much they spend on their grocery bills or even know that all that running around in the big gas guzzler to save 2 bucks just cost them 10x that amount.....

The Great Consumer Crash of 2009

Which just goes to show how the mass media can be a little spotty at times with the information... ....not everyone can osmose data out of thin air,i guess....

The Great Consumer Crash of 2009

venividivici is right. It all comes down to "Human. All too Human".

The Great Consumer Crash of 2009

I just printed off this massive tome to some friends who never gave up their back to the land missives from the 70's(anyone remember them?).
The commentary in this was enough to make a few people up here with me remember their grandparents comments about the Great Depression and how they made it through that. they survived quite well considering the stuff they had to do and , well, let's face it, the party is well and truly over, as it should be...
When one listens to the quiet one can hear the bleats of in the distance...

Today’s Bull Market Is Tomorrow’s Bear Trap

300 point rises nothing more than buying into dips.
I expect the same thing that happens here is going to effect asia as well. That too is a 'bear trap'.

Will the Bear Market Rear Its Head This Week?

If it goes anywhere near the 5,000 mark It may just be because we overreacted the other way. But then again, emotion trumps reason in times like these so maybe Mark might be right on some of this. Can't see 4,000 though.

Corporate Fraud + Government Intervention = Bailout Nation

When an entire generation,or two, have no end in feel good courses and NOTHING in terms of even homebudgeting material to learn from,don't jump on the blame wagon. What is needed are real teachers to stand up and teach NUMERACY as well as common sense so that this kind of Slimebuggery does't have quite the same effect.
