Take a look at Japan's Nikkei index since 1989. They still have not come close to recovering those highs. We need to do everything we can to avoid this scenario!

We cannot let water go to exchanges, it is too vital a commodity. You can't let something (which has no subsitute) that we need to live lend itself to speculators. It could be catastrophic.

Stick with other opportunities like the funds unless you have the capital to buy a spring or two. ]]> Tue, 03 Feb 2009 23:59:53 -0500

If we take away the toxic assets from the banks, what would we have to fear anymore. Maybe slow growth in the economy for a little while, but we are letting these assets rot inside the banks and it is tearing at our country.

I'd much rather be able to have a job than get $800 bucks in the mail one time this year. A stimulus will do absolutely nothing for us.]]> Mon, 02 Feb 2009 22:33:02 -0500

An economic bottom may be different than a stock market bottom because the stock market prices in and discounts the future. Our Dow 7400 number could be the low for this recession.

TO: Good News Economist- However, you can't be completely passive with your investing even if you take more of a passive strategy. You should still do your homework...

Whether it's finding the best financial advisor, finding the best stocks for a long-term horizon, or doing due diligence on an alternative investment fund, you need to be somewhat active in your investments. If you're not you could get scammed like Madoff investors did.

At my site, I am trying to educate investors about being the smartest they can about investing and finding golden opportunities in the market.

With the recession hanging around for at least another 6 months, there is bound to be at least one more big low to be hit. It doesn't necessarily need to be lower than the past low in November '08, but we are going to get hit pretty badly at least one more time.

I am optimistic, however, for Q4 2009 and the beginning of 2010. We are going to see a whole new force driving the economy. ]]> Mon, 05 Jan 2009 09:25:03 -0500

Propping up dead companies did not bode well for Japan when they attempted, what makes people think this is going to be different. I don't want to have a 10-15 year recession, do you?

Also, unions are part of what is killing our labor force and sending jobs overseas. It's not so much shame on those companies moving jobs overseas; it's the fact that they have to find cheaper labor to stay competitive. Unions are outdated (think about why they were created in the first place), and they destroy the companies that boost our economy. THIS IS CAPITALISM! Go to another country if you don't like it.]]> Thu, 01 Jan 2009 23:44:49 -0500

This is absolutely a trader's market right now, and you can get burned if you jump in with both feet.

Caterpillar might enjoy some revenue from the potential infrastructure build-out, but realize that commercial and residential construction has gone to almost nothing. If anything, the company's revenues may get close to leveling out. I don't expect that much of a boost.

So 0% interest rates will save us? That did Japan a lot of good for the past decade. Japan has been in a recessionary economy since the 1980s, but they had low interest rates. Can the Fed not see that it doesn't work so easily?

This stock market is completely a trader's market. Moves are greatly exaggerated and almost random at times.

One thing is for sure, we are not out of this recession. We have more bad news and trouble ahead. If you can stomach one more year of this type of craziness while picking up some highly undervalued stocks, you're going to do well in the long-term. Otherwise, trade and trade lightly.]]> Wed, 17 Dec 2008 10:08:13 -0500
