Robert your post such as that from Bear Stern are welcome I just expressed my desire to hear a buy side economist, that is all.

As to Steve Roach I personally stopped reading him and therefore I have no comments

Of course continue to post them. Different analyses are always interesting to see.

What Haim doesn't get is that there ain't no such thing as a "sell-side analysis". Even if he is correct in assuming analysts in brokerage houses always prostitute their opinions to generate revenues for the brokerage side (which I assure you is not true), the said commissions are earned when a client sells AND buys. So analyst has nothing to gain by being a perpetual bull or perpetual bear.
