I would like oil to go down that is kind of hidden tax cut. OPEC is on the verge of price war. Mexico and Russia should be given a subsidy of some money but allowed and encouraged to produce more, so should Denmark.

With lower interest rates and lower oil the chances of a good non-inflationary recovery will on hand.

I expect that looking at sharp increase in mortgage applications and inventory drop despite of higher sales to inventory ratio. The sales will all right if O&O are out as I expect consumer confidence to jump big from 92ish levels. They are right now running for their lives like mad. Ironically, death becomes a very difficult phenomenon for people who take lives of others without impunity.

<HELLO IKE: First, thank you so much for keeping the thread up to date, in fact, ahead of the news media, on the developments. >

Interesting comment, it is a very thin line to cross to be ahead of media and exaggeration or misinformation. I think sometime good analysis does become news worthy; we do a lot of analysis on end scenarios and end up looking as breaking news. Fair-minded open systems approach helps open minds to new level of understanding, just the opposite of closed minds approach where truth cannot be seen or appreciated. This time James this thingie 'Enterprise' come I will continue..

<You had predicted a 200-300 point jump on Nasdaq, should Ben Ladin be captured/disposed of. Given the run up we have had recently, do you still see a psychological boost to the market of this magnitude, should Ben Ladin's demise come to pass?>

I was thinking of responding to you and I got this other post, I thought that Gerard and you may enjoy my answer together, please refer for answer on this to my previous post, embedded somewhere you may find my logic of a rally or lack of it. Totally conscious of the new area where I am coming back to kind of step on bear paws, that may begin a new phase on this thread but I thought that it would be very unfair if I lose my flair and originality to my desire to try to make this thread without bear/bull confrontation. But markets are tough nuts, we need to make our case and need to make it very cogently. My outlooks on my views on market are in today, let’s roll.

End of Osama does not mean that lightening posts will end on Ideas. Have a good day James, give my best regards to your better half and lady love, show this to her, that will make her happy.
