Made a ton today. Not much volume. so the elephants are waiting for a pullback. The shorts are scared. They may try a test tomorrow. I am waiting for the dip and the volume. When the elephants come in, I am riding the lead Bull. Going all in .... but with caution. Market will be up 50% or more next year. Tons of money on the sideline, lots of optimism with a great new President and leadership. I am feeling good and rich .. and looking forward to the New Years.
Heck. Building roads, schools, fuel efficient cars and buildings, and a technology infrastructure is at least as productive (much more so) than building bombs and dropping them on a country to destroy their infrastructure ... and then giving them hundreds of billions of dollars to rebuild it. My vote is for the Obama plan. then why did WWII take us out of the great depression? sorry, but just as the obvious simplistic answer is wrong in trading it is also wrong in economics. We spent in two months on bailouts more than we spent in 5 years of war, and for what?
We got out of the Depression because of massive government spending ... but in the wrong places. World War II was followed by a recession. Real growth occurred under Eisenhower, fueled by the great national highway system project. Money well spent, is money earned. It is a matter of smarts. Obama and crew have plenty of it.
Yep - we just ousted the world's most diabolical dictator and his brutal terrorist government so we could enjoy destroying his country's infrastructure...love lib comments like these. Now if one of his terrorists had blown up a building in your city you would blame our government for not protecting you...have fun building that bridge to France.
Please, you really have to stop listening to Limbaugh. There are far greater dictators all over the world who are killing far more people. As far as national threats, Korea is far more along in building nuclear capabilities, and if memory serves me correctly, they are part of the Evil Empire. What we did in Iraq was kill hundreds of thousands of innocent people. Why? Because they had the bad luck of being born on some land which had oil that Cheney and Halliburton wanted to control and make billions off it. Quite despicable, but it is past. We have a great President now, with smarts, and Happy Days are Here Again!

Collateral damage of 3 to 7 year old little girls .....is just a cost of doing business.... What if it were your little girl ....... Yeah...they were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.... .............................................................. The sad part of the equation.... These guys are walking.... Unbelievable.....
Please, that old "war for oil" and Cheney/Halliburton is just more boorish lib talk. We get less than 6% of our oil from Iraq. You watch too much network news.
It is the potential of Iraq Oil......not the current flow..... And the oil play may still be won..... Iraq and Iran have the highest quantities of ¨the cheapest¨oil left on the planet...... There are better ways to go after cheap oil...than what has ocurred in Iraq..... ........................................................................................... If you have the least expensive costs and the biggest holdings..... Guess who is in control..... The strategy of the US has to include Iraq and Iran in a very big way.....as long as oil retains its current level of importance.... ............................................................................ By the way......ever heard of the two words.... Individual Integrity....... This is something that the Bush/Cheney duo has none of.... And is the most important trait that a human being has..... A human being without integrity .....IS NOTHING..... ....................................................................... Even people like Alan Greenspan know this one.....
Hmmm ... I see. And all of that other oil all around Iraq ... just a side thingamajig. Did you ever think why we invaded Iraq and not other countries like Ethiopia. Give it some thought. Think, .. I'll give you a clue ... what is important in Iraq? Another clue .. I am being nice. Which commodity comes from a totally dictatorial kingdom, that suppresses all human rights, that is also ultra rich, and was the origins of almost all of the 911 attackers, and is also buddies with the Bush family and is also awfully close to Iran and Iraq. If you can answer this question, you will have figured out Middle East policy.
