What was it- two years ago when RD’s Alias started a thread about the coming economic collapse- and now look http://news.yahoo.com/story//ap/20080915/ap_on_bi_ge/financial_meltdown.
He might have been on to something… :eek:
Fu(k! I thought I was smart when I snatched Merrill Lynch’s stock for $50 in Jan… and again for $40… and $30… and $21.
Going to take a loss on my biggest position:mad:
I have had an eye on the news all day.
You know, the more I do this stuff, the shorter, and shorter term of a trader I become. I don’t position trade becasue often you just can’t see these things coming, nor distinguish them form a normal correction…untill it is too late.
When I trade, I am in and out in a matter of hours, or at most a few days now. I only trade with the momentum. That way if there is a huge crash, I generally would not be in when it happens.
What? Don’t buy **** that doesn’t exist? Notional money cracks me up… buying debt only works if there’s a big stick and kneecaps involved. By the time it’s gone through five different companies you may as well be buying clouds.

have a read at this… http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1141.htm apparently chatter is up on the suspension of american elections.
Sorcha Faal? Seriously? You are using internet hoaxter “Sorcha Faal”, otherwise known as David Booth, as a source?

Cut him some slack. He took the red pill and woke up outside the matrix. He is just warning all of us about the big bad conspiracy :rolleyes:
Uki just needs to strap on the tin foil helmet a little tighter. Or maybe looser.

Tin foil hat is right.
“Sorcha Faal” is the same person who says that cosmic rays emitted from a neutron star are the cause of the big hurricane season and the 12 year anniversary of the return of the Stone of Scone to Scotland is a sure portent of a coming apocalyptic battle for rulership of the entire world.
Well, they said Bank of America and folks will buy MER at $29 a share… so I sold off a bit of a couple positions to stack up more MER at $17. IF they do buy it at $29 then I will only be down $1,000 in that position… which is a lot better than were I stand right now.
FU(K!!!

“Sorcha Faal” is the same person who says that cosmic rays emitted from a neutron star are the cause of the big hurricane season[/quote]it’s the butterfly effect… to think that exploding stars do not affect our weather patterns and other aspects of earth’s geophysical fields is a bit short-sighted and narrowminded…
and the 12 year anniversary of the return of the Stone of Scone to Scotland is a sure portent of a coming apocalyptic battle for rulership of the entire world.
earth is a prime hunk of [b]real estate[/b]… they have been fighting over it for ages… at any rate, only time will tell. if you view life from all angles and perspectives, the less likely one will be caught by suprise. 
A saying I adhere to:
It’s good to be open minded, so long as one isn’t so open minded that his brain falls out.
Blaming the changing late-summer storm patterns on neutron star activity is nothing more than obscuring the real cause of the problem: human-caused climate change.
And astrology is nothing but superstitious mumbo-jumbo, there is no reasonable or logical connection between the apparent pattern of stars and planets in the night sky and human events…
Except for the position of the moon and the sun. They do have an impact… it’s called seasons, days, and the tide.

hahaha!!! good one. obviously your astronomy is not quite yet up to par.
And astrology is nothing but superstitious mumbo-jumbo, there is no reasonable or logical connection between the apparent pattern of stars and planets in the night sky and human events…
it’s mumbo-jumbo because you do not understand the connections… your next sentence say’s that you do see an effect from the sun… isn’t the sun a [b]star[/b]?
Except for the position of the moon and the sun.
now ponder the position of the solar system in relation to the center of the galaxy… [b]the 12 gates of heaven.[/b]

the galaxy and solar systems have seasons and tides too…
Uki I am afraid to admit that you have been much more successful at making yourself brainless than I. :eek:
[QUOTE=SimonM;882557]Uki I am afraid to admit that you have been much more successful at making yourself brainless than I. [/QUOTE]what a witty response… i understand that intellectual insight into things seems to short-circuit your brain. 
Tinfoil hat conspiracy theories and new age disinformation with regards to climate change do not represent intellectual insight.
[QUOTE=SimonM;882567]Tinfoil hat conspiracy theories and new age disinformation with regards to climate change do not represent intellectual insight.[/QUOTE]you only need to wear tinfoil hats if your energy is outta whack… the stronger your energy field is, the less likely you’ll be affected by negative influences on you being… too think that man in his infinite smallness can actually have long lasting effects on an entity far superior to itself is absurd. i realize it is easier to jump on the dis-[b]information[/b] on man-made climate change, but having a social status based on ones perceptions from social peers is riduculous… perhaps you should seek out and verify that what i claim is not the truth, until then, you sound just like all the rest of the sheeple.
You deny multitudinous academic sources that have SHOWN a causal relationship between human action and climate change…
But you accept Sorcha Faal, a computer technician in the USA who poses as a russian political academic to disseminate dumb-ass conspiracy theories, as a valid source.
ROTFL!!!
Dumb@ss!
[QUOTE=SimonM;882578]You deny multitudinous academic sources that have SHOWN a causal relationship between human action and climate change…[/quote]nothing that nature cannot handle… yet you seem to deny that the weather patterns on all the other planets are likewise experiencing a change in climate patterns aswell… if this is true, how can you explain their changing patterns? greenhouse gas? automobiles?
But you accept Sorcha Faal, a computer technician in the USA who poses as a russian political academic to disseminate dumb-ass conspiracy theories, as a valid source.
i accept it as an alternate view of the world as opposed to what is taught by the world. there are many facets on the crystal of truth.
ROTFL!!!
if you spend to much time rolling on the ground… you might get dirty.
Dumb@ss!
someone has to take the label… doesn’t mean that it will stick.
we are also showing evidence and signs that our magnetic poles are shifting. this happens every 10 thousand years or so. So scientific data has shown through a lot of data collection.
If you are interested there is a couple hour long documentary where the leading scientists in their fields go over the data, how it was collected and what it means. As well as how they came to their findings.
Quite interesting.
Anyhow, during a polar magnetic shift like this we will see increased solar radiation, as well as extreme climate changes and weather effects.
who knows…but quite a few scientists believe this, we may see the actual shift in our lifetime.
Where we to see this, its nothing catastrophic. Just a natural cycle that our planet goes through. Unfortunately, human kind is to young to remember any of this. Though evidence does in fact show us quite a bit.

[/quote]we are currently entering the age of aquarius… the first month of galactic spring. naturally things tend to heat up and begin budding in the spring… watch out for the fire rains…

now ask yourself what has enough mass to generate such a shift in the poles… what can possibly alter the magnetics of a planet…
who knows…but quite a few scientists believe this, we may see the actual shift in our lifetime.
the spring storms are coming… better run for cover.
Where we to see this, its nothing catastrophic. Just a natural cycle that our planet goes through.
yet to an ignorant populance of mankind, these natural events will seem catastrophic…
Unfortunately, human kind is to young to remember any of this.
actually it is stored in our genetic memories, DNA. this is an underlying concept of the term waking up… our DNA is changing along with the planet.
Though evidence does in fact show us quite a bit.
and alot of evidence is ridiculed…
