More bailout weekends ahead. ****ing idiots. Great job on that last euro one. It lasted about a day.

Uh oh.

You guys still worried about inflation?

You will be shining shoes in 20 years with your accumulation strategy.

:cool:

Bear market signs. Crushed during the week and up on Friday... Everyone goes home happy thinking the worst is over....

You got it wrong, randall

You'll be shining my shoes in 20 years … while Pants is out in the parking lot shining the Benz. :cool:

Zenyatta just took a dump. You are needed back there.

If I was any more relaxed I'd turn into Zenyatta.

Of course, having an ice-cold bottle of Trumer Pils next to the keyboard doesn't hurt


Anyway, more confident than ever that this is just another correction in the powerful OBAMA stock market rally which began in March of '09.

In fact, looks like a mighty fine time to BUY into some short-term market weakness … so that's exactly what we did a short time ago.

25 large worth of Vanguard's S&P 500 index fund shares, to be precise


Look for that broad market index to make new yearly highs in the coming months


Randall, jms62 and the other DOOMERS can keep their money under the mattress…

Okay Zenyatta...

you're 8 wide around the turn and Smitty is breaking out the stick.

This doesnt look too :cool: Zen.

You simply aren't very bright. It's not your fault. Keep hope alive...I will continue doing MATH.

Ah, more knuckleheads riding the big guy.


Your little metaphor is cute, dala … but a bit misguided.

You see, we haven't even reached that backstretch yet.

Finish line is nowhere in sight at this point…


And randy … have a feeling that I'll be looking for someone to trim the shrubs at my Oahu estate at some point down the road.

I'll certainly keep you in mind. :cool:

Pete Carroll or Reggie Bush?

:D

The good news is that we haven't reached the backstretch yet. The bad news is that your horse is being pulled up.

Not on some bogus Pletch router like Keyed Entry, Mr. Pumpkin…

We're so used to the market always coming back that some people assume that every correction is a buying oppurtunity. That's not always the case. Look at the Japanese market. It was over 40,000 back in around 1989. Here we are 21 years later and what's their market at now? I haven't checked it lately but I think it's around 10,000.

The same can be said about our real estate market. We hit a high a few years ago that we may never see again in our lifetime. If we do, it will probably be in 40 years from now.

Anyway, I've had money in the stock market practically my whole life and I am totally out of the market right now. I think there is very little upside (5-10%) but there is huge downside (50-60% or possibly more).

P.S. It's not "Pumpkin". It's "Pupkin". He was the main character in the movie "The King of Comedy".

It was an honest mistake.

I'm sure he just assumed that you're from the SEC.

Nice timing Senator!

At least property values are down as well, including that Ohahu dream home.

Time to double down?

zenyatt -enomics?

I'd like to short the market right now but it looks so oversold short-term that I'm not going to do it. I'm going to wait and hope we get a bounce. I'd like to see a bounce back above 10,000 and preferably in the 10,200-10,500 range. I hope I don't miss the big move down while I'm waiting for the short-term bounce.
