Accumulate at the bottom, ride the bull market up, distrubute at the top? Have we seen enough "bear market" to make it worth accumulating yet?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05085439539465347207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34323687.post-6163200361634896452010-06-10T00:34:08.405+01:002010-06-10T00:34:08.405+01:00Women Prefer Men Holding State Bonds.

They are desperate for sure.<br /><br />Personally I boycott all Apple products (and Microsoft too for good measure). They are the worst kind of control freaks / wannabe monopolists.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05085439539465347207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34323687.post-41292185934478331162010-06-09T22:20:02.076+01:002010-06-09T22:20:02.076+01:00Yeah I'm with you on the Bilderberg thing.

Seems like the money managers hate it but people still need to make stuff (for now). <br /><br />Needless to say, they both can't be right. So long as people are very freaked out on China this nutso vol can be expected to continue particularly towards settlement dates.Nemo Incognitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07345185457108156269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34323687.post-77144223693346794152010-06-09T14:47:41.635+01:002010-06-09T14:47:41.635+01:00I've got a theory -- investors cannot stomach ...I've got a theory -- investors cannot stomach hearing about how badly the economy is doing (look at the news on the BP spill). Its not that things have been fixed, in fact virtually nothing has, its just that people are sick of hearing about it. <br /><br />Last week Bob Janjuah was on CNBC and said, after getting a listners' question about American banks as sound investments: "I cannot recommend investing in banks, because by law, I cannot know what's on their balance sheet"; which breaks rule 101 of investing -- understand the company you buy.<br /><br />As for your Apple rant, good luck with that. My entire family owns Ibooks and Iphones (I'm a BB addict), between the lot of them we counted 12 Apple products...It really pisses then off when I type an email without typos on my BB.<br /><br />As the NY market opening indicates, all is well in the world, the crisis is over, Greece, Spain, the Euro, China and the US have all solved their problems, there are no bubbles.Frozen in the Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04901959687094626879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34323687.post-69671322179043321142010-06-09T14:03:44.670+01:002010-06-09T14:03:44.670+01:00iTunes is the WORST, i will probably never buy any...iTunes is the WORST, i will probably never buy anything Mac again just because of it.

If you don't have an office, well, then the utility approaches infinity.<br /><br />As for the iPhone 4, it won't matter to you....unless you're already addicted to a previous model. In which case, it represents the last vial of crack on earth for a raging crack addict.Jon from Bklnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12563900822764359540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34323687.post-22925070865206196752010-06-09T13:07:00.183+01:002010-06-09T13:07:00.183+01:00'Course, this (except for the bit on Apple) al...'Course, this (except for the bit on Apple) all might be related to the fact that a great deal of uproar over Club Med finances centres on the presumed political inability of the area's governments to deal with the deficit issue.
