Let's take a poll here. When do we hit the next new high (let's say in the Dow). My guess is somewhere between 2 weeks and 2 months from today....
Like the weather, if you don't like the market movement, just wait a day or two and it will change. I'd give it 1-3 weeks before Dow is at a...
Okay, right, my mistake. US stocks did well and so did the euro in 2009. Both the euro and US stocks fell in January 2009. Thus positive...
I don't believe the PPT is responsible for the big runup in stocks over the past year, but I do believe they come in at strategic points when the...
I know that performance of the US stock market is inversely correlated with the euro. For example, priced in euros, the US stock indexes are...
Looks to me like the government did prop up the stock market yesterday. How else can you explain a 180 point rise in the Dow in the final two...
And how many percent of that 18.2% who reported running short on money for food in 2009 had a big screen TV in their house, an SUV in their...

Since the article mentioned 1999, I wonder how this new lower asking rent compares to 1999? My guess is, still inflated a heck of a lot more than...
With the Fed now having its hands into so many things that it did not before, I think it is time to re-examine accountability. Why exactly do...
