I just can't understand why some individuals think value is going up when sales and earnings are going down or flat.

I think Larry Ellison might take issue with your proclamation. Sales and earnings are up at Oracle.

Market at 10,000 in 6 months.

Go ahead, mock and scoff at what I have to say. The fact is, NASDAQ & DOW will continue to to go down for the next 3-6 months or so. Sideways movement will follow.

And.... Exactly What IS that you have to say ???

In one of your earlier messages all you said was LU will be $50, followed by a statement that indicated it would take one hour for you to type your reasoning.

Including by your arrogant confession that you had a PHD, ( I assume it was a PhD), in Economics.

Are we to assume that because you said so, we are supposed to say:

Oh! well master.... should we sell now, or when it is lower?, and then, what master?... what should we do next?, do you think it would be o.k. for us to go to the bathroom under the sunlight or shall we go back to our caves and carp there in the dark?

Next we have your statement above.

In addition, in subsequent posts you have said:

And another thing: INTREST RATES WILL BE RAISED SLIGHTLY. When it is announced (in the next few weeks), you will understand what I've been trying to explain.

I'm trying to share knowledge with all of you. But you don't want to listen. You mock and scoff because most of the people on these threads (SI, Yahoo, RagingBull, etc...) are Young, Arrogant, Foolish and Stubborn.


First you have not explained a thing you have made statements with no substantiating argument. Now you are coming with a ridiculous statement that interest rates will be raised !!! WHY ?? Please EXPLAIN !!

Share knowledge ??? BS, you are preaching arrogance here, as to your whining.... booooooo hoooooo whaaaaaaaaaa.

The only foolish and arrogant here is you.

You don't respect older people and you're rude. Typical generation "x". Everything you young people have ever known are good times. All of you more than likely began investing in the late 80's or early-mid 90's AFTER you started making good money from your high tech computer job. How many of you were serious investors in the 70's? How many of you even know how to read charts? How many of you actually use tools? How many of you understand the relevance of domestic/global news and use this to help form decisions?

More BOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO WHAAAAAAAAAAAA

I'm baffled at your extreme arrogance. You are going to LOSE $$$ if you don't wise up....

YOU are baffled at extreme arrogance.......so I take it you do not see yourself as arrogant ?

Mama mia...... please come and save us from our foolishness oh mighty [PHD] Messiah...

I even gave you the benefit of the doubt and offered, after one year, if the price of LU would be at the levels you said, I would come back to tell you that you were right and I was wrong.

Frankly, I do not see the objective of your posts, if you want us to make us feel bad, or may be save us from evil, I suggest you go to the god threads, there is plenty of mea culpa rubbish over there, so go on my boy, go and join the derelict preachers of such threads, I am certain that the prophets of gloom will gladly welcome you.

Besides, see what happens to Ghosts of christmas past:

#reply-5468042

AS for the current new ghost (impeachment), I suggest you go here and expose your thesis there:

#reply-5711845

Make sure that before you start whining again, just expose your thesis, even if it is an "extract", so you do not have to type for one hour.

For starters, (just curious), How would you see interest rates going up, the market seems to be going against you big time, everyone in the world seems to be sending their cash, to the US equity and bond markets, banks are flush with cash. Even the fed seems to be thinking to lower rates.

Please I would be interested in hearing your argument for higher interest rates, particularly when inflation is near non-existent, and a further strengthening of the US Dollar (which would be caused by higher interest rates), would put additional pressure on most all other currencies ??

Are you implying that Clinton will be impeached, so will Gore, and the US will be so weakened in the eyes of the world, that we would need the action of Alan Greenspan to "counter" these events.... ??

Again, in stead of simply making sacerdotal statements in an arrogant fashion, with no argument to back them up, please present your arguments, may be you know something we ordinary peasants are clueless to your enlightenment.

Otherwise, quit whining and get lost...... YOU are THE bad news!! (but I doubt markets will listened to those news...)

So put up or shut up.

Z.

Ooops, I think you spoke too soon. Great announcements this evening from INTC, and ORCL. ASND will beat as well. Look'n like another good quarter for the techs. May be enough to fuel a come-back, and let's face it, today was an aberrition of sorts. The market is moving on any bad news now and this move was due to zipper-gate...nothing else.
