Screw the patience-

Buy some damn silver- a lot of it- and how about right now?

You know the bad thing about this rally- prop job, short-cover, what ever you want to call it, is that if it sticks for even a few months- Greenspan is going to escape with his legacy and reputation intact and it will now become Bernanke's problem.

Greenspan should be torn apart by the media and economists right now. He had the utter gall to say he felt he had- 'NO RESPONSIBILITY'- literally no- as in- NONE. No responsibility for the subprime mess and this financial quagmire.

It honestly sickens me to see such an egotistical, self-serving scum bag being given a media tour as his MESS gets handed off to Bernanke.

Ps- I'll give you the points and I got B.C. <the OTHER Catholic U>.

Good post Slider. When you open up it is so refreshing. I always consider you to be the REAL DEAL when you talk to us and not at us.

Go Irish!

But...but....but...

WHAT ABOUT S-U-G-A-R?! You've avoided that one like the plague since your blown call on it a few months ago! It was "all the chatter" amongst your hedge fund buddies....remember? Remember when you posted that ULTRA-BULLISH article on sugar that was written LAST YEAR, trying to play it off like it was written THIS YEAR? What happened to all that? Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehhe ;-)

IPSU still looking like its on life support, Slider. Own up to yo' mistakes and don't let EMOTIONS get the best of you when you phuck up. We're all human.

Loaded the boat with SWC yesterday. Palladium will ROCK AND ROLL.

PS.
IPSU breaking down to a new 6 month low this morning...yikes! I love those hedge fund boyz...they bein' so smart and all. How many have imploded this year? Lots and lots. :-)

Slido a question on Goldman?

Re- 'Now if you are asking me if GS today at $205 is cheap?
Then the answer would be no. Just minutes ago I sold
the last of my GS'

Nice exit. You only missed a couple of bucks and 12 hours to rollover.

With this chart today I must ask- are YOU now short GS?


And for the 87th time- give us some 'love' on Sil-vah will ya!

Ron

SOTB
Thanks for your GS call.
And thanks again for your Sugar call.

What do you think about the Euro?

Saudis are miffed with the rate cuts, and may decide to ditch some US Dollars. There seems to be intense pressure on them to try and moderate the Oil price, a double whammy for sure.
Could it be that they would try to maintain their oil revenues by asking for payment in a basket of currencies?
