Your comments prompted me to look up Shilling's recent writings. I've only seen him on the segments on TV and he was adamant.....and RIGHT on each appearance. Also as I alluded in the previous post that it would make sense to short financials --it appears he did suggest that very thing.

Indeed when you read the detail, the thought and the clear concise recommendations; any dummy can see it is light years ahead of Brinker's equivocation. The guy takes a stand. It remains to be seen whether the economy and the market suffer the consequences he suggests--but it is obvious a long time ago he was right on the money about housing being a huge problem. He was right on the money about sub prime being only the tip of the iceberg and more importantly he was right on the money suggesting shorting of financials. Can you imagine the money one would have made shorting housing stocks and financials? Like I said the guy may be wrong for the rest of his life. But just reading his writings below; I am clear in my mind that he is one whole lot sharper knife than Brinker.
