    Wednesday Outlook: Low Volume Storm? [view article]
    David, did you ever figure out how the 2:1 double shorts work in IYR/FXI etc?

    I would appreciate your thoughts.

    Thanks for your research and great graphs. John     Reply

    Sunny Days - Fast Money Recap (8/22/08) [view article]
    I believe you mean Energy Conversion Devices (ENER), not Evergreen Solar (ESLR).

    ENER announces results on Thursday, Aug 25th before the open. ESLR already announced second quarter results in July.     Reply

    Lehman Upgrade? - Fast Money Midday Recap (8/21/08) [view article]
    A month or so ago, in Barron's, one fund manager had a short position on X, when the stock, if I recall correctly, was about 145. The stock went up; now it is down somewhat. In my view, it should be down. Reply

    Consumer Discretionary ETFs: How They Differ [view article]
    The ultrashorts SZK and SCC should be ready to rock. Among the most oversold sectors in the S&P. The curious thing - There is absolutely no fundamental reason in this economy why consumer discretionary moved up in the first place. I didn't get it. Reply

    Dollar will be down again, no problem. Energy will be up, along with the precious and platinum group metals. Reply

    Frankfurt whoever you are - shut up already. Nobody cares that you have the ability to be rude in broken English while repeating more or less the same thing on every site this morning. If you think every contibutor is stupid, then contribute something yourself. Reply

    Changes in P/E Ratios During the Current Bear Market [view article]
    Close observation of behaviour of p/e ratios is important. Many interesting views has been expressed in the article and comments above. Markmedayski has been brutally frank about the bear eating "investors" alive; I am afraid that if you comb through all the articles in SeekingAlpha in the last month or two on the subject of investment outlook, Markmedayski may be on the mark! or at least it is a possibility we cannot simply dismiss. Dow 9000 by December? chilly enough but who knows? Prieus has just written an article which concluded that under present "treacherous investment waters" we should focus on return OF capital, not return on capital--some wisdom there?? Based on my personal experience I have to agree with
    Webisking that buying high p/e works only during bull markets.     Reply

    As a newcomer to investing, it's hard to to understand the promotion of stock purchases based on a single metric such as P/E, especially in today's irrational market. Sorry! Reply

    buying high pes ONLY work during bull markets.Of course most everything does. The investor who purchased JNJ last year at 61 dollars witha 15 PE orWMT at 43 with a pe of 16 has combined safety and growth and has outperformed the DOW in the past 12 months by more than 30 percent. Those who bought MO JNJ KO PG MSFT XOM etc in the past year with the PES under 16 will show similar results in 12 months Reply

    We have nothing to fear except the possibility of marxist Obama getting elected. If he wins expect a stampede of stock sales by people trying to pay the 15% capital gains tax as opposed to his proposed 28% capital gains tax. This doesn't take into account the effect other tax increases he wants and his socialist agenda, and the effect it will have on the US productivity and economy.

    When asked by a reporter why he would increase capital gains taxes, Obama replied that the government needed the additional revenue. When the reporter retorted that was he aware that Bush's tax cuts resulted in more tax dollars pouring into the government, he was totally caught off guard, and replied "well if that is so, it is still only fair"! Welcome to his idea of government, Comrade!     Reply

    Elaine - 1932 was the 4th year of the great depression, not the first. It was also literally the best time in world history to buy stocks.

    Baron Rothschild was asked how he made his fortune, over the course of the 19th century. He said "when the streets of Paris are running with blood, I buy".     Reply

    2. Oct is the stock market bottom
