Too kind, dala

You're truly one of the finest posters ever to grace this message board.


Been an unbelievable September so far

Could see some profit-taking on Monday, tho … and a correction sometime next month … but we're still hoping to see that broad market index sitting around 1,200 or so by year's end…

Insider selling last week was 1400 companies to 1 buying. Nothing to see here.

An investor who bought 759 bullish AirTran Holdings Inc. options last week captured a 14-fold gain today after Southwest Airlines Co. agreed to buy the company. ... Excluding commissions, buying the contracts at 15 cents each on Sept. 21 would have cost about $11,385, compared with about $163,000 to sell them at the open of U.S. exchanges today, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

Keep runnin' with "the herd", randy … and stay out of the market.

You'll be working that night shift at Wendy's till you're 80...

…the TrimTabs numbers show, instead, that over the past decade it was actually quite easy to time the market. All you had to do was buy when the public was selling, and sell when the public was buying. … Human beings are hard-wired to run with the herd. … And that's how they act on the stock market as well. But when it comes to investing, it's a bad idea. Your feelings are a bad guide. And there is no safety in numbers.
...

All you had to do was look at the latest numbers from the Investment Company Institute, showing whether the public was putting money into their stock-market funds or taking it out. And then do the opposite.




Take a few minutes and read this WSJ article posted on yahoo.com today, randy

You'll learn something...

Oh give him a nice kissy-poo!

[hi_im_god]

although past performance is no guarantee of future returns, i have to give it up for the one consistent market bull on this board the last 15 months.

dala had the class to be first. i'll sheepishly join in.

i think it's time for those who called the last year a sucker's rally to throw in the towel.

That's downright hysterical. The economy is in shambles, if you think it can be papered over, so be it. Gold hit 1317 this morning smart guy, try and explain that. There is zero confidence in this recovery and the fact is, all you are doing is losing purchasing power right now....You've been wrong for years on anything economic, for you to chime into this thread is priceless.

Randall is right. The big boys are just setting the table trying to drag mom and pop back in before the rug gets pulled out. Without coal to stoke the furnace (jobs) this is simply putting lipstick on a pig.

And how in the f.uck do we know if he's making money?

Stop being such a democrat.

Because it's the internet and he says so....duh.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to go bang a model in my Bugatti Veyron.

is it problems with reading comprehension or math?

me: stocks are up the last year. one poster has consistently made that call.

the chorus: durr...the economy.

i never said a word about the economy and i don't give a f if he made real investments or not. he made the call in the face of all you geniuses who have been wrong for more than a year.

and randall: when it comes to equities, you've been rht since the beginning of this thread. i was wrong about gold and admitted it publicly a long time ago. time for you to do the same here.

Buzzz, incorrect. My thread is the one on the demise of the dollar. And as I said in that thread what happens with equitiies is meaningless if the worth of a dollar is so much less. Which is exactly what has happened. The Weimar gang in here has no clue on history or economics. They will be thrilled when they get a 10,000 dollar bill to buy a loaf of bread b/c they will feel rich? Where am I? Who cares

And prices will rise because?? There is no pricing power whatsoever in the country at this point. De-Flation is the biggest risk.

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?
