Contemplating the Demise of Bank of America, Citi and JPMorgan

The Worldwide DEBT is the problem.

The best solution for the present economic crisis would be a REBOOT or restart of the entire debt system for the ENTIRE WORLD.

Yeah, and that is going to happen. In Canada we can't even get our politicians to agree on anything.

No Relationship Between Shorting and Stock Prices

I think you have a great idea, but the timing it too early right now. There will no doubt be another market drop soon and everyone will once again run to treasuries.

What Is Going On With Gold?

I think your logic is baked. The current US debt to GDP ration is 100% and will grow by at least 10% a year. As one columnist put it; only the US currency could survive a situation like that, but not for long. You keep on holding your US$'s and I will keep on holding my gold. We'll see who's right in the end.

World reserve currency - hah

Gold Poised to Move Higher

Yeah, but speculation on the things we can eat and use is counter productive, which is why people invest in gold - BECAUSE YOU CAN"T EAT IT AND CAN"T BURN IT DUMMY.

Gold Poised to Move Higher

gold’s price today and in the future is a direct function of its supply and demand.

Uh, I think you better speak to the CIA and JP Morgan because they don't think the price of gold is based on supply and demand, nor do I.

Soaring Silver, Stalling Gold

Kind of a non article, isnt it

Stop Calling This a Depression

Nice minimization.

Lehman Brothers Take-over: Implications for Financials

The only thing I think the table shows is that the entire US financial system is mis-priced, not just Lehmans, but everything. Good luck.

The Benefits of Shifting to CNG for Fuel

I tend to agree with mixter. In Canada I believe the only way forward is with a mix of nuclear, wind and water. It's just unrealistic to believe that we can do without nuclear.

Let the GSEs Fail

Your economy and culture are just fucked. Period. End of story.

Citigroup Analyst: Bank of Nova Scotia Trading at "Significant Premium"

Sigh. What else is new. Citi is the poster child of high risk investment strategies and shareholder losses. First their analysts try to trash the Royal Bank of Canada and now that hasn't worked, they try to trash Scotia Bank. You 'mericans only wish you had banks that were in such good shape. Go for a trip down to Central America, the Caribbean or South America and you will see, guess what, Scotia Bank signs. That says a lot more about the price/performance of Scotia than the Cowgirls analysis does.

1,238 Billion Barrels of Oil Reserves: Is This an Oil Price Bubble?

In addition to the other posts I would like to add that there is no way that we will be able to actual produce the entire 1.2 Trillion barrels. Reserve depletion rates are logarithmic, and then you also have to consider the net export factors (i.e. how much of the production of oil exporters will actually make it into the world supply and not be used for their domestic consumption.

No, I don't buy this argument. We are tight on the supply/demand curve and I will remain very nervous about the crude supply unless and until someone discovers another super-giant field, if ever.

Forecast 2008: Outlook for the US Economy

Well, son, I think you are about as close to an idiot as a sane person would like to be.

Is It Different This Time? Comparison To 1997

I don't see how adding liquidity to an already over liquid economy could ever be considered a good thing.

Perhaps it's time for you American's to take your lumps and deal with the underlying crisis rather than printing more money to temporarily patch up the system.

Hedge Funds Feeling the Heat from Changing Market Sentiment

Why is it that the little guy always gets screwed by rampant out of control capitalism.

It's about time the US government got it's act together and stopped the kind of predatory practices that have been allowed to flourish in the name of 'free markets'
