Hi Bill, hope all is well. I'm for your thread continuing if at all possible- it is undoubtedly one of the longest running threads on the internet period, let alone SI. I remember posting to this thread on a 386 IBM clone back in 1997 or so. U do whatever is necessary to keep it going, IMO. If that means banning folks, then so be it. I would think anything outside the lines of the TOU should simply be reported to the administrator, and if they won't enforce it, then you may have to do something yourself. Do you have any recent web page updates? Not sure if I have them bookmarked still. My 2 cents- The dollar and the market continue to have an inverse relationship, and that is bearish for equities and commodities as I already pointed out a couple of weeks ago: Message 26247187 A test of the 200 day m.a. may indeed produce a good buy point for the next leg up of this cyclical bull market.

We'll see. Unfortunately, the monetary response just bought time as derivative markets expanded again. Now the sovereign risk in Europe becomes front news. This undermines so-called risk-free rate, the interest rates on govt. bonds, the low end of which is set by central bankers around the globe. This rate determines the price of every derivative on the planet. The pessimistic scenario is that select country defaults will lead to a country domino effect and there will be soon a synchronized global BK a la Argentina, with sovereign rates soaring around the globe and rather chaotic currency moves. First Greece, then Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain, then UK, then US. -ng-
