Sorry, Craig. I am a monotheist. You two will have to have you own Clash of the Titans to see who gets the title of "God in your own mind".

I plan on exceeding the S&P's 1998 gain by 1500%-3000% as well.

You guys will get either very rich or very broke I imagine.

OTOH, if the S&P gains aren't much more than zero those goals may be possible.

Be sure to post your trades, when it works out you may be interviewed by CNBC.

craig, a 1500% return on $10000 would be $150000. If you can do that, I'll send you my money, and we can split the profits 50/50.

Perhaps I'm not seeing the math. Assume a 15% advance in the S&P 500. By exceeding by 1500% do you mean returning 225% (15 x15%) or 1515%? The 225% return I have no problem seeing in a well managed trading account.
