      Paper.I believe Gross is invested in alot of contracts of a complicated nature not too many of us understand except that the value of has declined. Or has it just stayed the same? A little emotion and fear distorts reality.

      Are Inflation Concerns Inflated?
      price changes are increased steadily over a period of time. the obvious recent spike in oil has a slightly lower effect on other commodities. credit availability has shrunk even though rates have now been kept on hold. sounds like clear skies ahead to me. pop the cork ! i see opportunity.

      Soaring Costs + Slowing Global Economy = Stagflation
      I do agree with your statements of out of control inflation,rising costs, causing investments in other locations such as gold.Some of this may be knee-jerk reactions ,or simply just fear which is a strong emotion that can really screw-up a portfolio,or even an entire country. maybe even the planet. Are there any real solutions ? I think "the dahli lama" has run out of esteem, uniting the masses in positive thinking.Maybe we all need a few lessons in positive unity. If the G-8 ministers are alarmed, they seem to have few answers and plenty of fear. That to me is a sad lot and a poor association to be a part of. The fed has been predictable yet unable to "whip inflation now". Hey Jerry,where are you when we need you? Paul?

      Mad Money Guide - Cramer's Mad Money (6/3/08)
      it's all about sales and who can do the best job of it, laughing their way to the bank in the process. that is why it is called "mad money". it is difficult to understand the process and direction or predicability. a guess is more accurate in determining success or lack of in the markets.

      Still Too Early For Banks
      Well, when a bank goes bankrupt, nothing is really lost. they either merge or walk away or "disolve". the consumer still needs to continue. "Bailout "to the rescue. everyone deserves a break, but it's hard to let the controllers of the tap see the forest for the trees.

      Why the Fed Needs to Pause Today
      the market is flooded with unsold items. non-durables(gas/food) not included in gdp should give usd a boost but not until the market need is met. no mun, no fun at this time. fed rate cut will inflate greenback along with stimulus package sometime down the road. the charts are good indicators Kathy,just a little confusing. 25 bp cut for sure. glad i don't have to make the decision. i do think this is a gift,but who am i to decide. gotta go pay the rent..

      Can't Keep Home Prices from Falling
      I don't think it is a factor of lack of confidence,it's just that homeowners are not at the point today to purchase large ticket items.markets tend to follow trends and this happens to be one of them. there is only two things homebuilders can do, and it's either buy and hold til someone buys which is seemingly a low probability with present market conditions.much the same as in the stock market. everyone has their price and threshold. timing, price and need. market availability too.
