Should investors listen to the "experts" again?
These are paid salesmen -- nothing more. When you go to buy a used car, do you check the prices before, or simply give the salesman all your money and tell him to buy you a car for what he thinks you should pay?
I get a real kick out of these jokers (like Holland) who make their predictions an odd number -- like they are some kind of fortune teller. What a joke! A blind monkey could do better. Now these (and new ones recently hired or promoted) are calling for 20-30% gains in the markets this year. If Greenspasm floods enough money to do that, the country is doomed. Begin watching PBS documentaries on 3rd world countries, because life as you know it is going to take a turn for the worse.
I remain,
