They are currently collasping margins at an increasing rate. Deflation will and has to happen. In the meantime, who knows where peoples breaking point will be when they have no job, no prospects, and yet the value of the things they actually need, food, oil goes up. They can print all they want, they can't make it go where they want. They are crushing middle class people and starving out the poor...We have 48 million people on food stamps and I have to read about cartwheels over the where the Dow is?

Some math at 3pm

Dollar Index down .83% (not cherry picking b/c that's against all currencies)

S&P up .5%

You lose for the day.

Better yet, since no one has any faith in the dollar you get it in the butt---how you ask? Well that .83% decline has resulted in oil being up 2.04% on the day....Do you drive? Do you like food? How does that food get to where you buy it? How do the tractors run to get the food? Do you travel? Do you heat your home?

Can you predict when a terrorist attack is going to happen? Watch what the market does if they hit us again.

bin Laden and his Doctor friend still alive. It's been over a decade and they still can't catch the guy. They've had 9 years of recruiting and now they're getting white guys to join the cause so profiling goes completely out the window.

Bailout after bailout. The housing market dead. Jobs slowly recovering but mostly double-minimum wage or less.

Yeah go all in on the market. They already f.ucked millions with their 401k. Credit dried up. People carrying ridiculous amounts of debt. Hardly any saving enough to retire.

Yeah it's peachy.

Bringing in the USDX kind of defeats your point though doesn't it? The dollar is stronger today than it was when the bull run started in march of 2009.

Any way you paint it, if you followed Smooth Operator over the last 18 months, you would be ahead. Is this not correct?

God Almighty, the idiocy around here never ends. Maybe some charts of the past month will do you well.

" (Never mind that priced in dollars when adjusted for the debasement, they're not actually going up at all.... and your salary sure as hell hasn't gone up 7% in the last month either. Incidentally a 7% monthly rate compounded over the year implies a 225% annualized inflation rate, which is the gain you'd have to have in your salary to keep pace with this crap.)"

1. …gold could go to $2,400 an ounce based on the fundamentals--and that momentum could carry it to $4,000 an ounce.

2. …get out of bonds while you can: You're much better off investing in blue chip stocks with good dividend yields…

3. …buy a home. Now…



According to the hedge fund manager who made a fortune betting against subprime mortgages…

Just so my simple mind understands- You are saying that if I had put $1000 USD in the S and P 500 on March 9, 2009 and cashed out yesterday, I would have lost money. Is that right?

On a day when gold hit 1350, you'd think you'd have enough sense to just keep your mouth shut.
