good in the longrun.
I'll be ready to pull the trigger and get out of the market
if things look to be falling apart in the next 1-2 weeks.

I'm letting my gold and energy mutual funds ride this
comfusing period -- I expect them to do OK for the
rest of this year -- but common stocks are on very
shaky territory.]]>

Percentage of Stocks Above 50-Day Moving Averages Shows Market Strength http://seekingalpha.com/article/73030-percentage-of-stocks-above-50-day-moving-averages-shows-market-strength?source=feed#comment-154304 154304 things to come public which could change motivation and
action of trends. negatively quickly.
Second, 50 day avg. is much too short of
duration -- I'm more interested in 100 day avg. -- like to
see their figures for that.

I wouldn't be buying on the basis of their charts.

the USA are very weak and looking weaker. I agree 2008-09 will
be on the negative side. Gold, silver, energy stocks should do well

"Reluctant Banks" Let Defaulted Borrowers Stay in Homes http://seekingalpha.com/article/71236-reluctant-banks-let-defaulted-borrowers-stay-in-homes?source=feed#comment-137049 137049 have another problem before they can sell the houses again.
Many families are totally destroying the interior of the house
before they leave -- punching holes in walls, pouring paint
on the carpets, etc. These houses will be worth much less for
a long time before the banks spend $1000's more cleaning,
fixing them up before they're on the market again. This
problem will go long into 2009 -10 before it becomes anywhere
decent. FED will lower the rate .75-1.00 in next meeting.]]>

years while most of the industrialized world was paying $4-$5.00
a gal. The USA got lazy because the supply was too easy to get .
Now, if we have to pay $4-$5 a gal, we'll come up with some wonderful alternatives and improvements -- not only for ourselves, but to benefit the world. If this is the kind of "kick-in-the-butt" we need -- so be it. Let's get moving.]]>

10 Additional Notes on This Market, Aside From Subprime http://seekingalpha.com/article/42988-10-additional-notes-on-this-market-aside-from-subprime?source=feed#comment-92535 92535 and are not responsible to anybody with authority. There's a huge greed factor in
hedge funds -- promises of great returns and little information about where the investments
are. Investors who buy hedge funds supposedly have big $$$ -- don't really understand
why they're so hungry for risky returns unless it's simply greed. Hedge funds could
hurt the overall markets seriously. I miss the "good old days" when there were relatively few crooked investment scams and many of their operators ended up in jail.]]>
