    If you haven't had the foresight to see what could be then I am afraid to say you are in deep poo poo.

  • Why Are Investors Returning to the Dollar?
    My answer to your heading, totally deranged.America is a totally insolvent nation that now relies on the money of Japan, China and Russia (?) to keep it afloat.
    As for the rest of your article, I only want to say one thing, your first recommendation, Alcoa. When Stan O'Neal departed from Merrill Lynch with a $160 million golden parachute, he was snapped up to join the board of Alcoa. That's what I love about the great American plutocracy. They look after their own, no matter what.

  • Global Stock Markets: A Crazy Week
    long long artice filled with facts and graphs aplenty. The simple fact is this, in America people who are supposed to be the creme de la creme do outrageous things, they get obscenely rewarded and when it all blows up in their faces, they get bailed out by the government ,for the common good of course. That's what is happening right now in the great American plutocracy. Sooner or later this Sodom and Gomorrah financial system is going to be flushed downs the toilet where it belongs.
    The cartoon is about the only thing worth looking at. Imagine thinking that George W. Bush has the answer. If you believe that, you truly are doomed.

  • 1929 All Over Again?
    Sad to say, but I think you may turn out to be dead right Avery. The greater the excess the greater the punishment. There's been outrageous excess and there's severe punishment acoming. But whether many of those principally responsible for this situation get to experience much punishment is another question entirely.

  • This Bear Market is Worse Than I Thought
    "This Bear Market is Worse That I thought". Gee Kunal that certainly doesn't surprise me because I actually did read one of your other offerings. And it was just as dopey as this one.
    My advice to you is to go and find something else to do with your life because without wanting to be rude, you haven't got a clue.

  • CDS Market: It's Crunch Time
    Interesting to note that the Royal Bank of Scotland is down 45% this morning, Barclays 24% on a rumour that the three biggest banks have asked the Treasury for massive cash infusions.

  • So Much for the Bailout
    America is hoplessly in debt and the government's answer to the credit crisis is to throw another $800 billion it has to borrow or print at the problem.
    Virtually the whole of the financial sector, the car industry and the airline industry are insolvent but they are being kept on life support by the government because most of the major players are considered to be too big to fail.
    It is virtually impossible to be elected to office in America unless you offer tax cuts and increased services. And that is because
    Americans simply refuse to take any of the nasty medicine needed for the country to even start to dig itself out of this unholy mess.
    As a result America and Americans get poorer by the day and that process will only accelerate into the future.
    When I look at the stock market, it is clear that it's being driven by a lot of demented gamblers, some of whom do not give a toss what damage their actions cause as long as they can make a buck today.
    America's future could hardly look darker.

  • Non-Farm Payrolls: Enough for a Fed Rate Cut?

  • The Financial 'F-Word' That Needs To Be Said
    Mate this is a Sodom and Gomorrah financial market at every level and whilst I don't have any great confidence in the Biblical story I think the end result is going to be much the same. This is going to be ugly, very ugly.
    As for who is to blame, yeh I have seen the video, it is all the fault of the do gooder Democrats trying to get all of those poor blacks and Hispanics into their own homes. George fought against it and the banks had their arms twisted to make the loans. As with any transaction, just find out who made all the money and you know who is principally responsible. All that those poor blacks and Hispanics got out of it was being turfed out of their homes.

  • The Dysfunctional Credit Market
    You are dead right about the equity markets, Felix. They live in a world of their own, Fantasyland.That could well end in a horror movie in the long run.
