RLLD 4,275 Posted April 19, 2008 I thought your point was all hell was gonna break loose in about a month. C'mon, you can't be right all the time. Original opening post "We should setup some kind of wager to see who can guess which day it falls below 11k, and then after that when it falls below 10k as well " Uhm, reading comprehension is not your strong suit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Recliner Pilot 61 Posted April 19, 2008 Original opening post"We should setup some kind of wager to see who can guess which day it falls below 11k, and then after that when it falls below 10k as well " Uhm, reading comprehension is not your strong suit Subsequent to your original post, you posted the following on March 11 (post 33 if you want to refresh your memory): That's right,just looky at what a $200 billion infusion from the Fed can do.....hmmmmmm, I wonder what happens next week, and the week after and the next month as those resets start to ravage the market and then the economy. We are now past next week, the week after that, and the next month. Seems your prediction is exactly opposite of reality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RLLD 4,275 Posted May 2, 2008 I still say it will hit 11K before 15K. You would be correct. At least there is some good news, April looks to have a rebound in job growth, this should produce a further misperception that threal estate market will rebound, keep an eye on it. Did you read about the middle eastern nations considering dropping the dollar peg? How much longer after that does it spill elsewhere? Asia? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TUM301 10 Posted May 21, 2008 down 400 tues/wed and oil up 134.00 per barrel. 12.5 and falling. gut reaction we fall to sub 11K before father`s day nearer to 10K if this so-called oil bubble pop doesn`t happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LOD01 199 Posted May 21, 2008 down 400 tues/wed and oil up 134.00 per barrel. 12.5 and falling. gut reaction we fall to sub 11K before father`s day nearer to 10K if this so-called oil bubble pop doesn`t happen. Some ugly broad was on one of the news programs talking about the speculation. The numbers were astronomical. Everyone is pouring everything into them. She said something like $14 billion a few years ago has ballooned to $200+ billion. This one is gonna end badly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thekris 0 Posted May 21, 2008 "Everyone is pouring everything into them." I know I am. I've been buying more shares of my handful of stocks when they've dipped in price. I've been waiting for my oil stock to dip and it keeps climbing. Think I may have to just buy more before I kick myself for not getting more shares while the price was cheap enough.

thekris 0 Posted May 22, 2008 I bought into Petrobras (PBR) which is an oil company based out of Brazil. So even when the US oil prices dip a bit, this keeps going up. It recently split a week or 2 ago and it's only been rising since. I don't see oil dropping anytime soon. May as well ride the wave as long as I stay diversified enough in case the bubble does pop.

Never have I said anything about how people should invest, nor have I ever said anything remotely close to "invest as though there is no risk at all".

TheBlade 3 Posted May 23, 2008 Visit My Website That was interesting. You could argue both a double peak at the end of 07, or a head-and-shoulders (I think that's what it's called, but I'm not sure) running through 07 and hitting the last peak just a bit ago. Either way, that shows some really ugly technical signs for the market. I don't know a whole heckuva lot about technical analysis, but even I know both of those are way bad.

Recliner Pilot 61 Posted May 23, 2008 Wrong about what, specifically? I thought I was pretty clear when I referred to your OP: We should setup some kind of wager to see who can guess which day it falls below 11k, and then after that when it falls below 10k as well Not enough for ya? How about your prediction on March 11: I wonder what happens next week, and the week after and the next month as those resets start to ravage the market and then the economy. We are now more than two months past that prediction............so unless your prediction that the impact of "those resets start to ravage the market" was meant to say the market would be hovering around 1000 points higher you were wrong.

Recliner Pilot 61 Posted May 23, 2008 Just make sure you don't say anything negative, regardless of its accuracy, RP hates facts.... Between the two of us I'm the only one who has dealt in facts in this thread......as in what the market has actually done since your OP. You, on the other hand, have done nothing but speculate and predict doom and gloom so you can blame Bush. So far you have been wrong. Yep, those nasty facts really chap me.

You were not cleatr at all. What prediction was made on March the 11th, I make many of them so i am unlikely to remember just one based on a single day.

Hillary might hire you, she seems rather adept at surrounding herself with idiots.... The only thing I have done in this thread is point out exactly how you have been wrong by showing the market has gone up, not down, since your OP. How is that an 'inane position'?
