Hi Joel, I have some random thoughts on a slow Tuesday. We are certainly teaching each other control on this thread, and more than that ... like
(a) the limitation of our own aggregation of verbs, nouns and adjectives (i.e. our own bs)
(b) the limits of our trading abilities
(c) humbleness (i.e. Jay selling covered calls at the start of bull moves in NEM)
(d) each other's political colouration, and colouration period
(e) how to press other's hot buttons for the fun of it
... and scarily, we will probably grow old together, in a perpetual highschool summer holiday.
In a way, this Internet thing is very scary when one stops for one moment to think about it, i.e. I can leave messages of doom for my grand kids, as long as SI survives or its content become public domain forever floating in cyberspace, or better still, a new service introduced by, say, AOL, called Cyber Tomb, where a duper computer can learn our respective subscriber personality based on e-mail and posting traffic, and upon our own demise, keep our messages of whatever coming, and answer e-mail queries from our own great grand kids.
More scarily, I suspect we will have even more to learn up ahead, and there will be a time when we wish to learn no more, after just about all is revealed, or managed to be covered up.
Well, like I said, slow Tuesday:0) Chugs, Jay
P.S. Believed hot buttons ...
Jay = Japanese girls
Maurice = anything denigrating Q money (whatever the blip Q is)
CB = Noland and 1929
Elmat = USA centric thinking
DJ = OT
AC Flyer = CFZ
David = anecdotes of doom
Joel = folks shorting NEM
Carranza2 = folks long NEM
DAK = hobbyist investors telling him what to do
Pezz = none I can tell so far, but will soon figure out, as soon as small caps are doomed
Tradermike appears to be the only sane one on this thread, and he is probably a certified looney:0) |
