I'll ask PG1985 what he thinks. His opinion carries more weight with me than a USC lover (University of Socialist Commies)

That is actually pretty funny.

Im with the gloomy repubs on this rally Smooth. If this thing breaks 10k, I will proclaim you the Warren buffett of horse racing sites. The only reason behind this is the fickle money that was just printed. As soon as something goes bad, it will be taken right back out of the market.

No jobs= No growth.

I'm sure he'll get out before all of that happens. He's an annoying douche like that.

Cayman could use a fresh coat of wax.

You available this week, Coach Pantyhose?

Let me know by Tuesday ... that Indian Stalker dude probably could use a few bucks too. lol

Dow up a buck and some change today.

Toll Booth Operator in 3..2...1...

Cayman? Well it's typical that your prized possession would rhyme with...well, you know.

Always great fun yanking Cannon's chain, KGB ... but the truth is, I'm not all that concerned about the daily (or weekly) fluctuations in the market.

Nothing gay about the Cayman, Pants


In fact, it's quite the chick magnet. :cool:

Con doomers better tell "Indian Charlie" to start shooting some of these bulls. :$: :cool:

All hail Smooth Operator...THE WARREN BUFFETT OF HORSE RACING SITES!

Cheers. i hope you made a killing. My chicken butt is sitting on the sidelines.

Ah, that sweeeeeeet smell of money is in the air. :$:





No fear, dala :cool:

Yet another fine week on The Street

Turning out to be quite a year for equities … as predicted

Happy to report that the portfolio is now up nearly 28% year-to-date


Almost as sweet as watching Big Z make chumps out of all the handicapping geniuses last weekend...

Unemployment down a couple ticks … much to the chagrin of the con talking heads, no doubt. lol


Lookin' for yet another big day on The Street :cool:

People actually getting jobs or people just umemployed for a year so their benefits run out? I would guess the latter.

Bill Cheney, chief economist, MFC Global Investment Management
Linda Nazareth reports

U.S. employers cut far fewer jobs than expected last month in the best showing for the labour market since the recession began, boosting the U.S. dollar and global stock prices on hopes for a strong economic recovery.

The economy shed only 11,000 jobs in November, well below the 130,000 loss financial markets had braced for, while the unemployment rate unexpectedly dropped to 10 percent from October's 10.2 percent, a government report on Friday showed.

The labour market improvement was broad based and 159,000 fewer jobs were lost in September and October than previously thought, according to the Labour Department data.

"These numbers are almost too good to be true," said Tom Sowanick, chief investment officer at the OmniVest Group in Princeton, New Jersey.

Proceed with caution?

Well, after that nightmarish first couple of months, looks like it gunna end up being quite a year for equities.

That broad S&P 500 index was up over 27% ytd as of yesterday’s close … and it looks like those beautiful bulls are back in action again today.

Gunna remain fully invested … betting that 2010 will be another good year for stocks as the economy moves further and further away from the dark ages of Bush-Cheney-GOP 'leadership'…

Yup I guess as long as the government keeps making up the numbers the market will continue to go up.

Nothing 'made up' about that big ole number with the $ in front at the bottom of my Vanguard statement, Mathman. :$: :cool:

Wild day on The Street … as year two of the great bull market is about to commence… :$: :cool:

After BO gets re-elected in '12 … lookin' for that broad S&P 500 index to return to its pre-bush-cheney-gop-(grand obstructionist party)-wall-street-meltdown level (1565) sometime in the third or fourth quarter of 2013.

That said, gunna continue to dollar-cost-average money into a basically (95%) all-stock portfolio (50% large-cap, 25% mid-cap, 20% international).


Returns over the past 12.5 months have been quite impressive, to say the least. :cool:


FOUR MORE YEARS! :D

Yet another solid quarter in the books



And the Great OBAMA Stock Market Rally continues… :$: :cool:

Minus the new Obama Tax Break you got this year ;)

So you are saying that there is a tax decrease on capital gains?

BTW I didnt get any tax break from anyone. I cant wait to see how you spin the tax cuts expiring.

Yes, you got a tax break.

No i didnt. Perhaps if I cared enough I would explain why. But i do appreciate your response. Quite telling...

Sure. Yeah. Right.

So now you know more than I do about my own personal tax situation?
Or am I lying? Or are you a savant? LOL

Try as you may I doubt you can google yourself out of this. Perhaps Sarah Palin made me do it. Or Fox news brainwashed me....

Buy low, Pants … er, I should say buy Lowe's.

That badboy up nearly 5 % since Monday :$:

The Benefits Of Contract Abrogation According To Mark Zandi: 6 Million People Not Making Mortgage Payments Frees Up $8 Billion Each Month

We have disclosed on numerous occasions how excess refunds by the Federal Government despite subpar withholdings is goosing up consumer spending. Now we hear from none other than Mark Zandi of Moody’s Economy that the government’s tacit encouragement for “homeowners” to not pay their mortgage dues is freeing up $8 billion each month that is artificially increasing consumer spending and iPad preorders. And with banks not marking anything to market, all these houses that generate no cash flow are still marked at 100 cents on the books. If you ever needed a justification to not pay your credit card, your mortgage, or anyone else you owe money, now you know - contract law in America no longer exists. Just stop paying everything. And please dont save. Saving is for non-banana republics. Remember - the market is never wrong. And nobody can remember when was the last time we had a downday. So all must be well.

I don't have to know anything about your personal tax situation to know married couples get an $800 tax credit from Obama on their 2009 taxes.
