    Manipulation is the name of the game, any which way you can do it. Whatever happened to buying something because it was worth it?

  • Buy and Hold Isn't Dead Yet [View article]
    I admire the philosophy that goes with John's investment technique: in fact I admire it more than the technique. It suggests to me a stable person, happy with themselves and content to live their life as it is without worrying that they should be doing more or concerned about others who perhaps amass more (of whatever).

    If I could be as content as that myself, maybe I would hold some of my stocks and securities longer, and have less to worry about in the process. Unfortunately, I'm not so relaxed; and I wish that I were.

    I don't buy and hold, much; and wish you the best of fortune as much as for your philosophy as for the technique.

    Even greatly adjusted down earnings are only just being beat and lots missing as well, and smaller banks keep failing, so maybe it will get home to people soon that it is not getting better: the government, Fed and their pals are just getting better at misrepresenting the truth to us. I've given up caling when the markets will drop again because of this, but drop they will and the higher they get before they do, the more pain when it happens.

    Well, the markets are saying that they do not much like the bailout terms. It all looks very nice that the bankers are saying sorry and accepting new constrains, easing back on foreclosures and similar; but they're still going to do alright thank you, and now will have the policitians to blame when it gets worse, which it will. I just hope that some of the money being spent will really help educate our kids, repair our roads, bridges and other infrastructure, and get people thinking more about how good things can be rather than how much can we get. Investing-wise? I'm still more into shorts than longs. Sadly, it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better.
