Your previous posts were to do the exact opposite. Is there a danger of reacting too much and ending up following the news? Once you get into the wrong rhythm, it is sure difficult to snap out of it. Everything you do will end up being wrong. Best thing to do is nothing for a while maybe?

BoE tomorrow, Ben speaking later...........

Am looking to start getting long here. Bull market dip.




If this call is for a 50 year Bull now, and it works, would you mind if I became your first adherent. I'd readily volunteer to be your foot stool if the job is still vacant. :D

:D My first?! pah........

I think it's worth noting Mr Goldman Sachs referred to 'long term' not 'short term' quite a few times.

I'm not calling a 50 yr bull just yet :lol: Perhaps a 2-3 mth interim bounce. But then it could still turn out to be a first wk August '11 bull trap. That one was nasty.

p.s. I think the word you're looking for is acolyte :D and don't forget that I'm following you so there could be some circularity going on here. What I think Grantham might call 'career risk'.

Adherent is good.

In many Christian denominations, an acolyte is anyone who performs ceremonial duties such as lighting altar candles. In other Christian Churches, the term is more specifically used for one who wishes to attain clergyhood.

Well, my puts on ung and calls on gdxj are like a perfect storm gone wrong! So I daren't really advise anyone of anything.

Just spent an hour watching CNBC on the small telly, while cooking.

Incredible shoutiness - "YOU don't want to hear about Spain - THIS is how to make money ..."

Then break for gold ads.

Back to the shouters. Nat Gas has to be called by its first name - "Nathaniel" - hohoho. Charts showing small producers up ... like alot (no long term reveal).

I don't understand how UNG works, but what a fugly sales pitch.

The excellent John Authers iviews GS chief global equity strategist Peter Oppenheimer

50 year buying opportunity

http://video.ft.com/...ing-opportunity

(interesting timing!)

Includes the chart of 30years of globalisation depressing returns to labour whilst increasing returns to capital. Marx would have a field day.





Does the graph at 4:20 (I was going to paste it but I won't as it's FT), show the stunning redistribution of wealth from labour to corporates since the 2009 crash? That's ubelievable.

Where are the mainstream commentators to bring these developments to a wider audience?

The columnists in the Guardian don't have the technical knowledge or sufficient perspective, the Times, Wail, Express and the Telegraph clearly have their corporate, anti-people agenda, and while the Independent sometimes comes out with refreshingly honest articles, I can't work out Lebedev's motivations.

Peston gets it, but he's got to maintain the trust of his stellar insider contacts, so he can't go for the kill.

I realise that the FT has a bigger print circulation than many of the papers mentioned above, but no matter how political the FT gets, it's not going to change public opinion, or
educate those who don't already follow finance.

Who's left?

As per my post y'day. The problem I guess is the timing of this. Immediately after Napoleon is binned and during the Greek negotiations. Do they mean it or are they just trying to keep the thing from imploding.

For equities enthusiasts.

(P.S. can you do something to stop me responding to ToW - he does my head in. I literally hate everything he stands for - from his work as a paid employee in the 'charity' sector, globe trotting all over the place spending donated money, to his single minded campaign to have a free green field to buold on for himself in the se (charity mentality), to his support for untrammelled travel for the whole world's population and all the forces of globalisation, to his neo-con libertarian views on life and his nasty argumentative style of posting. aarrrgggghhh I'm going to have to stab myself in the eyes!!)


okay - I feel better now. Must walk dog. :D

He's still bottom picking metals.

He's picked up on the GDXJ reversal I posted y'day. He might finally be getting lucky for a bit of a bounce. :D

Btw, I posted (and tweeted) $40 as a downside target on the GDX a couple of months ago. It's fallen from $57.91 on 29th Feb to $41.10 y'day for a capital obliterating 30% loss in just 10 weeks. :ph34r:
