    • Options Trader: Anticipating Monday Carnage [view article]
      "We are hoping for signs of hope... the sentiment is very bad".

      Uncharted territory, total international financial collapse is possible.       Oct 06 09:58 AM
    • Gauging Market Fear: Put/Call Ratio and Volatility Index [view article]
      If you think Social Security will be paying out benefits beyond 2020, I have some LEH stock to sell you. Social Security is a government fraud greater than FNM or FRE and you are a fool if you plan on it being around for more than 10 years or so. Sep 18 07:38 AM
    • Two Types of Speculation: One Harmful, One Not [view article]
      Your choices are:
      1. Drill, drill, drill (offshore, ANWR, NG shale etc), more nuclear plants....
      or
      2. hope..       Aug 05 08:30 PM
    • Tuesday Outlook: Commodities, Emerging Markets [view article]
      I'm no fan of the Bush administration but we've had a sitting US Senator (Schumer) directly involved with causing a run on a bank. Where is the public outcry? Calls for censure? Calls for his resignation? Jul 15 08:14 AM
    • Apple's Balancing Act: 3G iPhone vs. Jobs' Health - Barron's [view article]
      This article's shortcoming is that, for whatever reasons, the author chose not to disclose the previous health rumor spin articles that said almost the exact same thing written by Barrons and Fortune in 2006. This is just another example of market manipulation - and should have at least been discussed in an objective article. Shoddy work Mr. Liss,

    • Oil Is Up Due to Fundamentals, Not Speculation [view article]
      So China's consumption has increased 7.2% per year, and the reason NYMEX crude as increased over 100% is? That's right, speculation by the IB's and others. The market is not working. May 21 06:26 PM
    • Who's Really to Blame for Rising Oil? [view article]
      Increase supply!
      We need an intensive oil exploration and drilling effort off both coasts of the US, in the Gulf of Mexico, and Alaska. This effort needs to be as intensive as our program to put a man on the moon was.       May 11 01:26 PM
    • There's a Solar Shakeout Coming - Citigroup [view article]
      FSLR and SPWR are similar to 'pets.com' etc during the tech boom. In ten years they will be faded memories of investors guilty of wishing innovation at pace not supported by science. These companies are good for short term rides, both up and down - but don't invest any of your own long-term money in them. May 10 07:51 AM
    • Uranium: Safely and Efficiently Powering the Future [view article]
      You overestimate the wisdom of politicians. They will continue to spin their lies and spend billions of dollars on fraud solar and wind power scams. Nuclear power is the cheapest and cleanest power source available, but don't expect politicians or an uneducated public to understand the engineering and physics involved. May 09 08:46 AM
    • Vultures Already Inspecting Sprint's Carcass [view article]
      As a former customer, someone needs to buy this company and break it up for its parts. The customer service is horrid and coverage is terrible.
      As an investor, anytime it bounces up, I buy puts.       May 07 07:48 PM
    • Can Cablevision Turn a Triple Play into a Newsday Homer? [view article]
      Sorry CVC not CVS.. May 07 09:21 AM
    • Can Cablevision Turn a Triple Play into a Newsday Homer? [view article]
      CVS is just looking to spend money since the shareholders rejected the buyout offer by the Dolans to take the company private. So they buy Newsday, the stock tanks for a year or so and then they make another offer (at a reduced price) to go private again.

      If Charles was going to run this venture I'd give it a decent chance of working, since he's a pretty savvy businessman. Truth is, his sons don't share his acumen (see MSG, Knicks, Radio City, The Wiz stores, etc for proof).       May 07 09:20 AM
    • High Incarceration Rate Weighing On U.S. Economy, with Upside for Corrections Corp. [view article]
      What a great source of labor to offset some of the incarceration costs. Remember, around 35% of our state and federal prison population are illegal immigrants - tighten up the boarders and the prison population will decline. May 06 10:11 PM
    • Dollar Gets Smacked By Fannie Mae [view article]
      Wasn't FNM chartered to bring 'stability to the mortgage markets'?
      Another government great idea on paper that failed in practice.

    • Ethanol Will Become a Fad Without Government Intervention [view article]
      The production of ethanol results in far more pollution than is gained by using it as an additive to meet EPA guidelines. The EPA should suspend its use and begin looking for a replacement. May 06 09:13 AM
