      Fixing the Monetarily Unfixable
      Good article by Nicholas. The Fed seems to think it has found the holy grail to fix all problems by printing and printing. Nicholas says this only leads to more problems as credit lines eventually shut off, an outcome that is not in the Fed vocabulary at all.

      In general agree with Nicholas views although in the short term many analysts call for boom because they believe the Fed and government has found the golden key to solve all problems by printing, printing and bailing out in bigger and bigger amounts.

      The American Crisis and the Case for an Inflationary Depression
      Good article by Naufal. He sees Dow 3,300 eventually, this is also the view of some pessimistic analysts who believe major stock market crashes bottom at some 20% of peak [ 20% Dow peak of 14k= 3k approx].

      Naufal sees a inflationary Depression as opposed to a deflationary Depression 1930s style - this is due to Helicopter Ben's determination to damn the consequences of printing and printing. Not sure if a inflationary Depression is worse than a deflationary Depression but Naufal says Depression nevertheless.

      If Naufal is correct, the coming year is not a time to fool around but a time to be on heightened sense of alert.

      Global Stock Markets: Another Fake Rally?
      How a day's action changes people's mind. Prieur as far as I remembered was turning bull and optimistic in his last article in seekingalpha due to Dow rising 20% in 5 days without pause. Now due to one day's sharp drop goes back to his long held stance of " until a clear reversal of the secular bear trend emerges, treat all rallies with distrust ". This is normal as our long held opinions gets shaped by market action and vice versa.

      Why Bailouts Are Not the Answer
      I am afraid Peter Schiff and Jim Rogers has hit the nail on the head ie America should increase savings and reduce debt not do the opposite with multi trillion dollar bailouts.

      Everyone including Obama and nobel prize winner Krugman is saying damn the deficit, damn increases in debt to be issued to foreigners, damn everything just print and spend, increase debt by more lending. I am afraid the minority like Peter and Jim may be wiser- since we can't do anything about this state of affairs we have to go through the wringer.

      Analysis of the Past Week's Common Stock Rally
      Technicals are fine for now but fundamental numbers are still deteriorating. Unlikely to see sustained rally.

      Big Difference between Price and Value
      Agree with raising4daughters, better be cautious and run risk of missing some action than take the plunge "cash is trash" which it isn't.

      Icahn Swims Against the Tide, Increases Yahoo Holdings
      Do not agree with Icahn increasing stake in a weak company like Yahoo but no one can predict the future so let time be the arbiter of diverse opinions.

      Shipping Continues Its Downward Plunge
      Good observation and analysis of the dismal economic state of affairs. Looks like a true equity bull has to wait in the light of such economic analysis.

      Agree any stock rally will be modest in view of the credit crunch and deleveraging.

      Global Markets in Review: Winning Streak for Equity Bulls
      OK bulls have a chance in Dec 08 possibly early Jan 2009 as per Jim Rogers assessment. Even Jim the bear has covered his shorts, right thing to do, so short term maybe better to lean on bullish trades.

      U.S. Stocks Look Like They're Still Headed Lower
      Very good article puts things in perspective to those now calling for a Christmas bull. To be sure no harm for short term traders to go long but with stop loss so this trading stance is not inconsistent with Peter's article calling for selling into strength US and emerging markets.

      On balance I am very wary and on the bearish side longer term but for Dec 08 the bulls might have the upper hand. Dow 7k or lower [in time to come after this rally] is entirely possible if deflation continues despite all the monster bailouts.
