The Dow is almost at an all time high but this interesting post shows us that if we had the Dow since 2000 we are not where we seem to be....

Lets see if we get a Dow record tomorrow.... or if we see the beginning of a secular bear market....


Go figure....
Invest in what you know using your own set of rules and discipline (or use a Dark Sith Lord feelings and intuition)

or Go to Law School to learn how to defend or attack your investment point of view.

Good Luck, May the force be with you and may you make a lot of money without running out of cash....

Well, we keep hearing that the housing and stock market are going to crash, but we have an almost record setting dow..... Go figure, the Dow has been spectacular since May, and I have become a bear by reading a lot of chatter that has turned my brain into tapioca pudding...

Where is the Dow going??? its up 3% this month alone and it is one of the greatest Septembers of the last few years....

Just turn on the tube and watch the Goldilocks anthem or read about the great market comeback or about the great coming depression....

I am going insane....

Feeling like a moron because of being short in this market???? or Feeling like a moron because of not being long in this quasi-bull market?

With the Dow near an all time high and bonds doing their thing, it seems like I know nothing about this market.... No setups for traders, Strange bouncebacks, a feeling of despair and senselessness.... Focus yourself on making money and dont listen to the talking heads.

If you had bought intc at 19, 4 days ago, you should have a nice bounce by now....

We are on the verge of a shift in the Stock Market.

Why do I write this??? Because I am tired of receiving "free" advice by the talking heads and the business media in General.

Do we need another financial advice blog???

NO, definetely NO, but I think it would be good for my mental sanity and to clarify the cloud that has been hanging around the sites.

There are some really good bloggers on financial themes. You can peruse metasites as http://www.stockblogs and so many others like that.
But I have found a really good blog (imho) that clears the foggy environment a little bit.

Check out http://www.thekirkreport.com

By the way this guy is a millionaire, gives good advice for free, and yet you have to pay $50.00 to see the really good stuff.
Between you and me, I am thinking of paying the fifty bucks, and that is one of the reasons I am writing this.

I have been watching the market for about 22 years. I have not acted on any of my ideas or fears, and when I have , I have lost quite a bit of money.

So whatever you do in the market, make money, take the money and run and dont feel guilty or pressured by anything or anyone. It is just like in a casino.... Nobody has to make you do anything you do not want to do.... Place a big bet, win and take off!!

And if you lose, try not to lose it all.....

From reading all the nonsense floating around we would seem to be near a market crash.
But then again the probability is that the big boys will end up making 10% on the year and we the small investors will end up holding the s**#$ end of the stick....
