[/quote] the birth/death model? yikes you prector and dent been smoking too much meth bad jobs number is good. keep Ben in his chopper. no inflation. so why not? my real fear is when GOOD jobs number comes [/quote]
bad jobs number is good.
That's the first time I've heard that bullish argument before.
High unemployment = reduced income for consumers = less consumer spending = less goods and services bought by consumers = lower sales and profit margins for corporations = lower share prices = bad news for bulls

That’s what happens when you do a 1:20 reverse split.
I’ve eaten Steak and Shake exactly once in Missouri and got food poisoning.
Did not go long Mastercard. Come on, Shania, how hard is this. It’s a company that reported today and got destroyed and reached a new 52 week low.
There’s a place in NYC called Shake Shack that makes a damn good cheeseburger.
Also a fan of In & Out in LA.
Moraen, I’m not always a bear. Just a bear right now. I’m actually bullish on a few individual names.

I was just joking. I hear you. It’s a good opportunity for buying, but I’m having to use cash sparingly at this point.
Hey shoe - What was that site where you got all of the historical data from. I was trying to pull it up, but for some reason could not find it in my email. I signed up. I assume as soon as I can get to the website I’ll be able to log in, but I can’t seem to find it.

Gotcha, Moraen. Sometimes it’s hard to tell when someone’s joking or not on this forum.
Mmmmmm, Shake Shack. My sister lives right down the street. That shat is good.There’s a place in NYC called Shake Shack that makes a damn good cheeseburger.
