Comment on Recession Fears Torpedo Markets by Miguel Salazar

Great post.

Personally, I’m betting big in the solar sector. I believe it will be huge in the future, with rising oil prices. I’m currently holding ESLR, JASO, SOLF and WFR, and considering entering in either ASTI or DSTI.

Stay safe, stops are in, emotions are out!

Comment on The Big “Give-back” by Don Barrett

I found this sight while trying to find something on the changes made this week in the % of capital needed to play the futures market. From what I understand the cash requirement to say short the dollar was increased and this is causing some of the sell off. I haven’t found the exact % of the change but I think it has something to do with the rising dollar and fall of commodity prices.
Oil demand has dropped for months now,but oil kept going up. I’ve looked at gasoline usage numbers and they have dropped for weeks,but on the business channels most guests keep saying oil usage is going up. If consumption is going down in the U.S,you can bet usage in the developing countrys is going down. A lot of people say gas at over $3 a gallon won’t change consumption,I don’t believe a word of it. With heating oil at a record high,you don’t think people are lowering their thermostats?
As for the housing market,I still believe it’s over blown. I heard the other day that 1 in 527 homes is in danger of foreclosure. About 16% of all the subprime borrowers never made a payment. I know for a fact,Florida has a big problem brought on by speculators and I think all the areas you mention have the same problem. Countrywide,all the home builders and some lending instituitions are feeling the pinch. and,the government is not going to bail them out. Does Bear Stearns at $2 a share sound like a bailout. Some will loose their homes as they shouldn’t have been loaned the cash in the first place.
I just thought I would add my opinion. Back to my first comment,the government or whoever changed the requirement for the amount of up front capital to leverage what ever has gone a long way in righting all the markets. This isn’ the first time the current White House crew have put in force something to correct what they view as an injustice. Remember the stock shorters getting hit pretty good?

Comment on DBA- Is this a short-term top? by Anonymous

Anonymous — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 15:40:38 +0000

Yes – this may be ahead if itself as you note. What I would say is that for the first time I see individual investors who have previously been focused on the stock, housing, or metals markets in recent years moving into agricultural commodities as an asset class. I’m not sure what happens in the short term, but I think we’ll see growing reallocation to commodities, and I don’t think there’s any doubt that the fundamentals all line up toward higher commodity prices (at least in dollar terms!), despite the run up.

Comment on The Dow Jones “Illusion” by Anonymous

Anonymous — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 15:24:17 +0000

Schiff is brilliant, as usual. Your choice of “illusion” is exactly the right word, since most folks think that if they had $10,000 in 2000 and $10,000 in 2008, that they’re largely even. Nothing could be further from the truth. Thank you for calling this out. It’s a reminder that this information is out there for the taking on a daily basis, and yet people refuse to accept it.

It makes me wonder when the masses are going to wake up to this. I think we’re going to through price controls, subsidies, and all kinds of other contortions before people admit the truth. For those of us that see reality as it is and act to preserve our wealth from a falling dollar, I guess we should consider ourselves fortunate.
