One only has to look at the price of oil dropping and gold and silver rising to see what the people think the future holds. Also, people are running toward bonds to conservatively protect assets. The DOW, and in particular the S&P, are historically very good barometers for the health of our economic future. ALL indicators point to a downward spiral continuing. And you can thank Obama and his Dumbocrat party for a great start in destroying America for decades to come.
I've been wondering if part of the government's strategy is trying to force private money out of stocks and into the banks....

I suppose most of the 2% aren't working at anything more serious than board director. And no, I don't think the owners are going to sell out for the reason of increased taxes (though they might sell out for other reasons), nor will CEOs quit because they're being taxed more, though they might resign for other reasons.

These are the same people who thought Y2K was the end of mankind, who beleived that global warming was caused by people and could be fixed by people, that thought communisim was being spread because there was a red star on the christmas tree in the Snoopy Christmas Special, and who beleive the purple Tele-Tubey (spelling) is gay.
Just because nuts get a platform is no reason to jump into the fire with them.

The world spent Billions to fix the Y2K computer programming issue. It was not fake. It was real. Ask anyone that worked on the problem.
No comment on the global warming thing...
Red star on Snoopy? Wow... that's strange.
Tele-tubbies know that purple one was gay... duh.
As to relating any of this to commodity purchase positioning... is really reaching for an argument in futility. The commodities are tracked and trended with a microscope. They are really accurate as to what the people are thinking.
So i don't get your comparisons as being effective.

Hi sterlinggirl,
They are already loaded to the gills with reserves. The best returns , entirely in their hands, is to not loan and hoard cash. One also has to assume the smart money is also manipulating this.
