  • Why the Stock Market Should Crash [View article]
    There's no way anyone can invest in these markets unless they are naive, delusional or have more money than brains. if this market goes up another ten percent, the DJ is at 12000! With these fundamentals, that's insane

  • The Road to Economic Hell [View article]
    "If we don't have a conservative uprising in 2010, we are doomed."

    LOL - that's what we were supposed to have from 2000 - 2008. No one watched that fool so now we have a natural reaction to that excess. Obama is no more a socialist than Bush was a fascist. Bitch and moan all you want, Your lack of concern over that moron in the White House caused the current administration

  • Last Thursday Was the Bottom - It's Time to Get Back in [View article]
    According to the author, "we've hit bottom" - again. This is the third time in less than two months we've done that. Why do I think that we'll be seeing another "we've hit bottom" article sometime in January???????????

    Just out of curiosity - How much per hour do the guys at AIG make? Oh, I forgot, AIG is a friend of Paulson's, so that's OK.

    It doesn't look like we get jobs by shovelling money at big corporations either.

  • The Economy Can't Be That Bad if Thousands Can Pay $100 for a Ballgame [View article]
    Perhaps the stands were filled with Wall Street employees. After all, we know that government pays well. Where else can you get to keep all the profits but have the taxpayers pick up your losses?

    If the author is a loon what would you call the morons who own stock in BAC who actually drove up the stock price after their holdings were diluted another $40 billion last night? Freaking hilarious.

  • Rising Number of Renters Could Spell Trouble for Consumer Price Index [View article]
    Rents are falling and foreclosures are rising. The number of households is falling with children moving back to their parents and elderly moving back in with their children. We soon will see more three generation families living together than at anytime since the 1930s.

  • "Leaked" stress test results show 16 of the nation's top 19 banks are already technically insolvent - any two of which could take down the FDIC. Update: Treasury says it doesn't even have the results yet, which Karl Denninger calls a lie. Zero Hedge, and others, question the veracity of the leak and its source's agenda.  [View news story]
    I had no idea that there were three solvent banks! That's amazing.
