So yea, take all of your building money and buy sand to back fill swaps to build Condos in Florida.

You know when there are problems in the economy because people who get caught in serious white - collar crime kill themselves. A good example of this is the CFO of Bed Bath and Beyond. He allegedly cooked the books to his favor to the tune of (no way to put a real # here) north of $50,000,000. The remarkable thig here is he did it w/ another rain maker. How these people think they can get away with these kinds of things is>>>

They can afford to be stupid. Most of us here on AZ can not.

 

[ThatGuy]

I can’t afford to be stupid but it felt smart to put my life savings on Ford…meow

 

[BodeMiller1]

I don't understand the whole savings thing.

Speculate, then meow. You're putting the wife before the turnup cart.

This is why they put erasers at the end of pencils.

I don't understand the whole afford movement. All of a sudden people want to be able to afford: bread, cheese, eggs, shrimp (there are many kinds).

What's this about a weather report?

This is straight up speculation. They have good brand recognition and they are beat down like red headed steps. If you can wait 5 years to ski and complain about the government full time... Earnings in two days. buy the same $ amount every month.

Nice shower stuff, better than Target. High - End

Listening to Dan Ray last night on 68 WRKO Boston last night. He was talking about the drop of the Dow Jones. He's right it's the best indicator of our nations economy. So the callers are getting killed in there I.R.A.s and those kind of investment vehicles.

Here's the cool part, most of the time gold has an inverse relationship with the market. This time around gold is flat and adjusted for inflation it's off.

Why is this

At this point we don't know.

hint: it has nothing to do with the meow factor.

Further: The State of New Hampshire has an Investment best practices handbook in print. It's pretty good.

W. Buffet OUT

This is it. You don't want more than two or three stocks. That would be too mutual fundish. No one likes mutual funds... fees on fees. the exit fees.

you don't want more than 3 stocks?

Not much happening here today. Butt, Mrs. Neisbomb did total a Ford car last night. Then someone bought gas. And then there were two.

Ever look at CLM, great qualified dividends?

This is where it get's complicated. You have the ups and downs of: many markets, currency and the tricky part; politics, weather, war, etc...

No cash on hand
The only problem I see with this "FUND" is they are over the place (butt, they have good picks.
Light on Real Estate, (REITS)
Was up to just shy of $150 in 2004 thru 2007. So, the opportunity cost of owning this fund from inception>>> You lost your shirt. It all depend on when you bought and sold.....

If the market goes up ??? This would be a good diversified hold.

Further, this is the problem with closed end funds, when things are going well...
Here's the thing, The U.S. Greenback is getting stronger; Bank of England, Credit Swiss and the DAX (Germany) are getting killed. Europe always leads the markets for many reasons and the bats are coming home to roost.
The remarkable thing is Bank of America started buying into the market last week. These guys are supposed to be pros., now they are being ordered to rebalance their funds in three days (by tomorrow). It is important to let them fail.

You're going to see a lot of banks go down. Pro tip of the day, make sure you're covered by FDIC and SIPIC. FDIC is a stronger insurance policy as SIPIC will pay only those with money to cover other parts of the economy and the little people are most always screwed.
