Food for thought: regarding proforma numbers and stock option expenses insidedenver.com regarding the real situation that exists in the economy today and the so called soft landing that we won't get: prudentbear.com The stock market benefits mostly the top freep.com "The stock market boom of the 1990s left the impression that most Americans were experiencing an unprecedented growth in wealth," the authors write in "Working America." "The truth, however, is that most Americans have no economically meaningful stake in the stock market," they add. The report cites government data that show fewer than half of all households hold stock in any form, including mutual funds and 401(k)-style pension plans. One percent of all investors hold almost half (47.7 percent) of all stocks based on their market value. The bottom 80 percent of shareholders own just 4.1 percent of stock holdings. Eski, The sad thing is that the fed has totally screwed the little guy. The rich have had easy money and huge stock market gains. The wealth effect has lead to the inflation that is killing the little guy. The fed tries to pretend that we should exclude food and energy. The little guy spends a greater percentage of their income on food and energy then anyone. It's killing the non-wealth to buy gas for a car and put food on the table. Heating the family home this winter will really put many in a pinch. When this bubble market falls apart you can bet that the rich 1% that has made the most and owns 48% of the market will be the ones smashing it down. The general public will be told not to worry and to keep buying the dip as this market unwinds for the next five years. The big money wants to bounce this market down a long flight of stairs for the next 5 years. They want to unload as much of their stock to the public as they can. The rich don't care about the average Joe's 401k money....they want to cash out of stock options to get the new house, car or boat. CEO's like Michael Dell dump millions of shares a year and expect the public to believe that it's nothing to consider. It's just routine selling and portfolio management. Blaaaa! Bums like the techtonicbull on this board call me a roach! The public will know who the roaches are when they look back on what happened to their retirement money in 5 to 10 years. Dump pump and dumpers that know little about historical norms, market averages or cyclical transitions have a lot of nerve. Bambs
