Re: Water draining from a bathtub / Doing Time

Nebish said, "I'm basing this purerly on valuations, which are RIDICULOUS."

Compared to what? We keep hearing on TV and blogs that multiples are cheap and valuations are well cheap. Well again, I say compared to what? Can't multiples just continue to compress creating even greater values going forward?

This current environment is much different than the leveraged go go years of decades past, thanks to the permissiveness of Greenspan and lax regulation. I'm not suggesting your are wrong, just asking you to consider that we are still in a de-leveraging stage, the go go years of 50:1 leverage are not coming back anytime soon and that the era of leverage is what led to such high multiples in the first place. Perhaps that was what was the true aberration.

Re: Monetary History

Off Topic:

MtnGntx, I was at a Tennant Bio modulator seminar and training for the last three days using scenar. While there I had an opportunity to have a session with "Tesla Lights."

While I already knew the value of scenar for improving one's health, the Tesla session was remarkable. I went with absolutely no expectation of anything. After a ten minute session having this energy pass through me, I had the most calm and peaceful feeling I have ever encountered. Remarkable!

Have you heard of this before?

Re: Fading Desolation Row

I like the last three CSCO, INTC, XOM and if someone is really interested in the long term consider TEVA and MHS too. I began buying the last three and will continue to add going forward and look for points for the first two. Interesting times.

Long XOM, TEVA, MHS and hedged 50% for tommorrow.

Debt's Deadly Grip

Excellent article.

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/22/business/22gret....

A key point:

"Todd E. Petzel, chief investment officer at Offit Capital Advisors, a private wealth management concern, characterizes the Fed’s interest rate policy as an invisible tax that costs savers and investors roughly $350 billion a year. This tax is stifling consumption, Mr. Petzel argues, and is pushing investors to reach for yields in riskier securities that they wouldn’t otherwise go near."

Re: Monetary History

Still working on the book by Croft.

These videos are interesting and have the potential to alter your thinking.

Reminds me of:
(a) You become what you think about
(b) I am affected only by my thoughts

Do you have clarity of purpose?

P.S. I emailed you through the CC system, but never receive a reply, that's okay since you may have changed your mind about passing on the information. However, I have used the CC e-mail contact five times and never had a reply from anyone, sometimes I wonder if it really works. Peace.

Re: Off topic read [For the weekend]

MtnGntx, I'm always fascinated by your posts. If you have the time care to share your insights on high Blood Pressure medicines? This is an issue many of us face and most doctors say the risks of not taking blood pressure pills out weigh the risks of taking them.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Here is a chart for APPL

I know this is picky, but why not just call it institutional money instead of non retail money?

I'd be interested in how he/she interpret's volume to determine non-retail versus something else. Other then that interesting indicator.

Re: buying with both hands

Congratulation's on that allocation Grym and any others here who bet that scenario.

As hard as it seems to be, I think this will continue to play out the same way as individuals and perhaps institutions continue to shift from equities. I think the boomer's have just started this trend for the last few years and it could go longer than one expects.

Interesting times, strange times.

Also, it seems to me that QE has failed to accomplish its goal of turning the economy around as we seem to be rolling over again. This should be enough evidence that Keynesian methods are a failure unless you were one of the fat cats that were able to buy time through the $700 billion gift we gave to these #$%#@&'s.

How can any central banker think that QE2 can possibly solve our problems?

It should seem obvious by now that WW2 was what pulled us out of our last depression with its pick-up in economic activity.

Windows Problem

I use windows XP with google chrome or firefox browser, I absolutely cannot open PDF's on this computer anymore. I have looked at both sites for things I can try for this type of crash/es and nothing works.

Anybody else have this type of problem and find a fix?

Thanks in advance.
