wow – 40% in Intl Funds – ok I bumped it up to 15% when you told me to a few weeks ago
and no fixed income – hmm I think I have 20% in fixed – ok I will have a look
denton (from yesterday)>”you know me (referring to gun owners)”
No denton, I don’t ‘know’ you, and am quite strict about my abhorrence of guns and gun owners (unless they’re hunting guns and you live rurally).
Here’s what those of you fearful of this mythical tyrannical govt should ponder: it’s already there, but not in the way you think. It’s the law and prosecutorial excess you should worry about…material witness rules that can keep a person naked and jailed for months; misuse of terrorism, subpoena and conspiracy statutes that can ruin you and your business; a 4-year old girl being sued; pickup of ‘alien looking’ people (viz Arabs, Indians) who’re detained for months and sometimes die in custody, trigger-happy police…none of your damn guns would help if the FBI came knocking.
But then, you probably never have to worry about this, do you? So live with the false security of the guns in your house.
So here’s a dumb question:
How are Retailers so bullish if 10% of Americans are out of work an d another 5-8% are underemployed, not to mention the other 5-10% who are saving money??
“he understands the wealth effect of a rising stock market”
What wealth? P/E’s are still double digit (historically single at market bottoms). Skyrocketing commodities are going to compress the hell out of profit margins. Did you try pricing equities in debased dollars? -20%?
Stagflation at best. All to save the big banks. It’s not Bernanke’s objective to heal the economy. All your illusionary, nominal paper wealth will go towards food, energy and transportation. Housing will sell off to help pay for it all.

Thanks!
BHO, give it up.
You didn’t even get the DOW8000SP800 call correct. Nor did you profit from it on the way down or the incredibly swift move back up.

Make sure you check I am a MAN looking for WOMEN. Unless of course you’re “gay curious” as they say.
