On the contrary, NASD.  I pay very close attention.  And that’s not what was said…it’s what YOU took out of context and perverted.

THat's fantastic. I don't manage any money. I let the pros do it.

I wish I could help build SOMEONE ELSE'S business, so I could have a 401K.

You're not paying attention Starka, I've never said it but our resident banker has--it's why he thinks the Dow is going to hit 12,000 by the end of the year.

Anybody hear the Fox talking heads today--the guy saying Nasdaq down 20% from here by Halloween. Yet another bloody October because earnings are just not there.

Great.   Financial entertainment TV.  Who was this genius? 

That Roach nob from MS? 

No matter if they are a  bull or bear they are almost always wrong.  It is shocking that are paid big bucks for their fantasy like opinions let alone given a forum on TV.

I HOPE the market gets spanked. It's good for business.

Newbie if you had any retirement savings it would make sense to get out of the market completely according to your doom and gloom theories, but I stand that the Dow will hit 12K by the end of the year.



Earnings rise in good companies over the long term this is because of inflation and the natural course of being a business (of course there are some companies that will burn to the ground). I stand by that statement also.

I think the Dow will hit 12,000 too--sometime around 2020, after bouncing off 5,500 in 2008.

The world is a sitting on a powder keg, it's insanity to think it can climb such a daunting wall of worry.

If you're long you're wrong.
