Damn straight and I love it. I put some more spare change to work today and have a great plan for the rest of the year. God I love distressed hedge funds and the morons who run them. You skippy’s are made to order.
How do you put your picture in the little box? I just had a new one taken and I look SHARP!
It works very well (extremely well) with iPods and iPhones as well, and I’m sure the Google Android, too. The headline-only RSS-style feed is effectively perfect. You should be proud of the work your web-smiths have wrought.
I know you had some gripes about the iPhone, but didn’t think you had ditched it althogether. Don’t let the Obamazoid-like Fanboys find out or they’ll try to reconvert you. I wonder if it’s like Islam, where apostasy is worse than being an unbeliever from birth. But maybe they consider Blackberry users “people of the book” since it’s not MS based
The jobs picture was a loss of at least another 300K and GM, Ford, Chrysler or all three are about to implode. The DOW closed up 250 so what did I miss?
I am still perplexed by it myself. I am still looking for the technical or evidence to support it. I stand by my UYG puts and still believe the shitstorm in financials is not half over. I sure would like to see someone evaluate the details of the CDS the Fed is buying though. Looks like Bloomberg is looking into it…
The move up today was on low volume…don’t try to figure it out…it is meaningless. Dow drop ped 1000 in 2 days, today light volume bounce of 250. Sets up a big leg down actually.
Took out some Chinese food tonight..popular restaurant, affluent area, 6:30 PM…E-M-P-T-Y.
I tried to pick up a nice cheap snack at Chipotle – left because the line was too long, go figure.
Then again around here is within 1 mile of a college (UCF) and seems to have it’s own little sub-economy. I guess people used to living on next to nothing won’t be too affected when they have to get used to living on, well, next to nothing.
In any great organization it is far, far safer to be wrong with the majority than to be right alone. —John Kenneth Galbraith
Asian currencies continue to sell off vs the $ on the heels of the news yesterday that South Korea said they will look into hot money inflows stemming from the $ carry trade and the Bank of Indonesia said they are looking into the foreign buying of bills. This follows the news a few weeks ago that Taiwan was limiting foreign deposit holdings and Brazil was taxing foreign inflow transactions. As I mentioned yesterday, we may have reached a short term pain threshold in terms of $ weakness and foreign countries are fighting back as they certainly won't wait for...
