      Can Central Bankers Prevent a Great Depression?
      Gary, you are a gifted and insightful author. Thank you once again for the excellent article.

      For those people who are having a problem seeing an answer, take a look at some of the comments. Our monetary system is debt based. As long as countries are willing to accept our debt as payment there is no problem. Now take a look at the very first picture Gary posted, The Baltic Dry Index. Saying that it fell has plunged 11-fold sounds like more like a statistic than a frightening fact. What this means is that commerce is not moving.

      As there is no commerce going on, there is a depression.

      UltraShort ETFs: At a Tipping Point?
      For any (time) bots out there, Grandpa Nido predicted this a very very long time ago when he used to deliver fuel oil to homes.

      Thank you grandfather Nido, thank you mom. I wish the two of you could be here now.

      Bullion Shortage and Spot Prices Tell Two Different Gold Stories
      How can gold gold be in high demand and falling in price? This is how, it was told to me in a joke many years ago.

      A woman walks into a butcher shop and sees that pork chops are $4/lb. She goes off on a tirade. "$4/lb?, $4/lb?, $4/lb? The butcher down the street has them for $3/lb!"

      The butcher, obviously miffed, responds: "Then go buy them down the street."

      The lady: "He is out of $3/lb pork chops!"

      The butcher: "When I am out of pork chops, they are only $2/lb."

      The lesson here is that if you can not buy something, it can be any price the seller wants. You still can not buy it, and the seller still can not sell it.

      So what does this really mean? It means "someone" is lying. Gold is either available, or its price is really much higher. Since some people can not apparently buy gold, it must mean that its value is much higher.

      It would not surprise me in the least to see gold prices plunge by 30% as governments try to manipulate the weaker hands to sell their gold positions.

      Is Gold A Sucker's Bet?
      Wow, so many comments. I still need to leave a note though.

      Inflation is caused by an increasing money supply. The major nations around the world have all pumped trillions of dollars into their economies in an effort to stop the depression from happening. If you go to the grocery store, things are more expensive now. Even salt costs more.

      I can only guess at why people think we are in a deflationary period. Perhaps it is because desperate people are selling their belongings for whatever they can get. Perhaps it is falling prices for houses.

      If you can not buy gold, then go to your local discount store and buy some canned goods (of food you like to eat). If there is something you have been planning to buy and have been putting it off, please go and buy it. Everything will soon be more expensive.

      While I am on my soapbox, this will be the last decent Christmas for a very very long time. I say this because China fills up container ships with inexpensive goods and we give them paper IOU's we have no intention of honoring. China will eventually want to paid in something of real value. With a new administration starting in January, I am thinking we have another 2 months before China cuts off the American consumer.

      Thank you for the wonderful article. I am fan of buying when everyone is scared. The oil sector's dividends are quite attractive right now.

      Why Are Investors Returning to the Dollar?
      Thank you for the wonderfully insightful article.

      The problem with Seeking Alpha is that it is like Myspace. Everyone thinks that their opinion matters and should speak out when they really need to shut up and stop looking retarded.

      I appreciate your advice and plan to put it to good use.

      Thank you once again,

      Really Diggin' DIG
      The S&P futures opened limit down on 10/24/08. That was the capitulation bottom everyone was looking for. The dividend was too great to pass up when DIG was selling below $24.

      I hope this helps everyone reading this.

      Cramer's Now a Market Timer?
      Remember when Richard Bove told everyone that Lehman was going to be bought out by a Korean bank? CNBC carried it as its big story. I wonder how much Bove got paid to be Lehman's lap dog.

      Combating Cascading Short Spirals
      The only reason to be in the stock market is to make money.

      Markets move as tidal forces, money moves in, and money moves out. It is as simple as that. The trick is to be on the right side at EVERY given point in time. That said, the US Government can buy up every single bad loan and buy up every single share of every F'd up company on the stock market. This will destroy the dollar. Everything everyone has in the bank and retirement account will literally just vaporize as the dollar is inflated beyond recognition

      AIG is on the hook to pay $225 Billion on Friday, 10/24/2008, in defaulted Lehman guarantees. My guess is that any company throwing lavish parties after getting an $85 Billion dollar loan, is not going to pay their obligation. This is what people who are about to "go under" do. The guy down the street from me has a drinking problem and went broke. Before he went belly up, he bought a new Chevy 2500 truck and ran up all his bills.

      I am on both sides of this long/short argument. I have no idea how things will play out. That said, my best guess is that "crap happens". Plan ahead.

      To anyone reading this. This is not about paper money, it is about toilet paper. In these uncertain times, please just go out and buy what you will need in the near future. Do you use toilet paper? Go out and buy a years worth tomorrow. If you "Threw your money away", it will just be for toilet paper.

      I am your best friend ever (for free).

      Not All Preferreds Created Equal
      Do you know of anyone going bankrupt? They go out and buy lots and lots of stuff. They know they will not have to pay it back and live it up.

      Who do we know that just did that? AIG. They had a half million dollar party in California after getting an $85 billion dollar bailout. It is my understanding that they are on the hook for $225 billion of Lehman loans, and it comes due on 10/24/08. I am thinking that if they need to get bailed out, they are not going to pony up $225 billion.

      But what do I know. I just draw bad cartoons.

      Paulson in a State of Panic
      Take a look at Paulson's face. See the fork mark scars on his forehead? When he was a little kid, he did not know how to eat. That is a sure sign of a retard.

      Okay, that was mean.

      There is no way that anyone this important can be doing something this stupid unless he is doing it on purpose. ** God that sounds like conspiracy theory **.

      Give this some thought: If you wanted to destroy all the money in the world, how would you do it? Seriously. This is a good way to do it.

      If you take a look at YouTube's "Money is Debt", you will understand why money blows up.

      Google Launches ValueClick Killer
      Google is susceptible to click fraud.

      Bots that crawl pages can be programmed to act like humans. After reading # ISBN-10: 0735605653, I came to the impression that one day I would wake up and Google stock would be worthless. I am surprised that neither Microsoft nor Yahoo launched an attack from some eastern block country or China.
