Consumers and the Economy Are Down and Out
I think we are going to see huge de-valuation in luxury real estate and luxury items across the board. Because those are the areas that a vast majority of buyers were overextended into - essentially buying beyound their means. But I think subsistence on buying within our means will essentially be unaffected.
The family that lives pay check to pay check in the fringe town, eats meagerly, and gets by on hope and happiness will be fine. Those who live pay check to pay check in the mega-mansion, eating out every night, traveling, and generally living beyond their means will have to make serious life style changes. That will be hard part for some. But in the realm of things how bad is that?

Don't Be Fooled - Short Selling Restrictions Do Work
I personally seek out short squeeze opportunities so I appreciate when shorts go bad...which of course means that I support short sellers in principal. I believe that they are entitled to take a short position so long as shares are available to borrow. But when one sees volume turnover like we have recently in some stocks it indicates that there is naked shorting...sometimes in excess of the entire float of the stock....that should be illegal.
Analysts' Oil Forecasts Wildly Off Base
To me and to a growing number of people, you peg your hat on the sure things in life - the sun rising everyday.
So you guys go ahead and argue about your oil theories...but it's not the only energy source under the sun

Government Intervention? Here's a Scorecard
I think the evidence clearly shows that without oversight markets are not free or competitive or healthy but corrupt...and we see the evidence everywhere not simply in FAS 157.

Solar Breaks Oil Price Dependence
1. Solar is not the only energy sector being subsidized. Don't people realize how much the oil industry is being subsidized, vis-a-vis fighting wars all over the world to secure extraction and safe passage? Solar is immune to these geo-political subsidies as the sun shines everywhere. In short, Oil subsidies dwarf solar subsidies and all other energy subsidies comibined. Anyone who doesn't think oil is subsidized does not understand the big picture at all.
2. We don't need a Henry Ford of solar. That is not an apt metaphor really. The big cost savings will be with utilities adding to their grid as PG&E announced recently. Yes, maybe there will be an increase in individual use but the prime growth will come from industry seeing the cost savings. It will be huge.
