      AOD with 17% interest is full of fine quality European stocks. It is a relatively new ETF and untested, but they have managed to pay excellent rates without resorting to Auction Rate Securities. Aug 20 04:18 PM
    • The T. Boone Pickens Approach [view article]
      T. Boone Pickens backed Ronald Reagan for the Presidency.

      Ronald Reagan tossed out Jimmy Carter's prophetic and brilliant Energy Independence Plan.

      We will spend three trillion dollars on the Iraq Oil War, lose
      4000-5000 young Americans, 400,000 Iraqis, create 3,000,000
      Iraq refugees. (For the three trillion dollars, our government could
      have bought 139,000,000 hybrid automobiles to give to those relinquishing their SUVs and gas guzzling autos. This would have cut automobile gasoline use by 50%.)

      The Republican Political Machine is the most destructive force in America.

    • Auto Industry Business Model Needs a Major Overhaul [view article]
      The three trillion spent on the Iraq War could have purchased
      139,000,000 hybrid automobiles and cut automobile gasoline use in half. Not to mention air pollution.

      One of the FDR braintrust people suggested that in order to bring about a major good change in America, one had to bribe 51% of the people. This could easily be done in the name of economic sanity. It might even appeal to Americans. Subsidies and tax breaks for people buying hybrids, etc. Plus - money saved on gasoline would flow into all local economies and lift all boats: local businesses and local employment, municipalities and states.

    • "Rubinomics" Is Back [view article]
      The Democrats will straighten things out again, and bring back more of the "level playing field" which working people love....only to have
      the nation shafted and sucked dry again when Republicans gain power down the road.

      Our nation was founded as a republic - and is marketed as a democracy when the need for soldiers arises.

    • The Power of the Market: 600 Million People in China Lifted Out of Poverty Since 1981 [view article]
      Correction: Capitalism works when combined intelligently with socialism. Worldwide.

      In the U.S., which eschews "socialism," unbridled capitalism
      has destroyed our financial institutions, government,
      health care system, affordable housing for citizens of modest means, peaceful nation, dollar, government surpluses, traditional mainstream religions, society and Western Civilization in general.
      So many of our great cities are now third world areas.

      To paraphrase..."Whi... most continue to struggle, the ruling GOP line their pockets with the nation's wealth, denying the majority of basic rights (affordable housing, education and health care, livable wages), and causing incalculable damage to (America's) environment." So very interesting how your paragraph so applies to life in America after thirty years of Republican rule and the end of "the level playing field."       Jun 07 12:48 PM
    • Thursday Outlook: Crude Awakening [view article]
      A relative who works for Conoco Philips said he thinks he understands why oil prices have gone so high. The Chinese have been closing many coal mines . They now have to import so much more coal from the U.S., Canada and elsewhere. Shipping more coal requires huge amounts of oil.

      The Republican Political Machine threw out President Carter's Energy Sufficiency Program, which program would have been the start
      in the right direction, at the very least, of a sane and intelligent
      energy policy.

      This country cannot afford intellectual lightweights in the White House ever again. It will take fifty years to recover from the fools that people voting Republican have given us for almost all of THE PAST THIRTY YEARS. The Clinton Presidency was mired with a Republican Congress hellbent on putting private interests before national interest. Here we are, funding Middle Eastern regimes which are killing our sons and daughters. The transfer of wealth
      due to the policies of the Republicans is sickening.       May 28 07:15 PM

      I'd like to know your thoughts on nuclear energy. I've been hearing
      more about it recently. I see that Invesco has a new ETF out -
      PKN.

      I know Cheney's Energy Task Force was looking at this in 2001 - but haven't heard much since.       May 15 10:14 AM
    • ETF Update: Oil Service ETFs, Natural Gas Plays [view article]
      I'm starting to hear more about nuclear energy. I see that Invesco
      has a new ETF, PKN - a global nuclear energy fund. Any chance you could give us a sense of where we are with nuclear and potential
      future profit directions?       May 15 10:06 AM
