  • Winter's Coming for the Boomers: Part 1 [View article]
    I loved it. I look forward to part 2.

    Reject blaming wall street and Republicans. Blame belongs to the entire country. Our country has become a self-absorbed bubble of entitlement. I don't want things to get ugly, but we'll be lucky to have things only as bad as the Depression - in that era we at least were the creditor nation of the world.

  • Why the Dow Is Headed to 6000 [View article]
    I like the 6,000 number - or a number lower - but the author gave a nuanced trading suggestion for Dow 8,200 that allows for either a rally higher or further decline (for example to his target of 6,000) if 8,200 were tripped. The key is the paragraph about whipsaws.

  • Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [View article]
    The concern about "reasonable profits" probably comes from an errant story that has been floating around for more than a year. The story is about Nancy Pelosi and quotes her saying that she supports a 100% windfall profits tax on stock market trading profits - including that of retired persons. It has been labeled as fallacious by factcheck.org (try this link: www.factcheck.org/askf... ).

    I like your analyses, but leave out your Iraq politics. It makes me doubt your logic.

  • Do Rising Prices Indicate Inflation? [View article]
    I appreciate the reminder that the decline in housing prices is slowing inflation, even if not in CPI it will be in PCE.

  • Can the November Market Predict the Election? [View article]
    This guy is just flying his colors. Not only is there no apparent pattern in his table of data, but the reader has to guess his politics. 2000 was a "split decision"? The reader has to read to the end to find out that he differentiates between winning the election and winning the popular vote.

  • David Fry's Daily Market Outlook [View article]
    Hi David -
    Your lines on the FXI imply that it will go lower. Everybody write about the contagion in China.

    Let's be clear - the bottom of the Shanghai market was the first day it fell. Since that first day it has rallied more than 5%.

    I suppose you know that FXI are all state-owned companies.
