‘That sucks, after you squander the show time on listening to yourself on YouTube and then get to the interesting market related commentary, pooof your out of time …… proper planning prevents piss poor performance.
Your interview with Alex Jones was great, it’s nice to hear you share your insight in the markets, economy etc, especially the behind the scenes info.
What do you think about Peak Oil and it’s impact on the financial system when it finally arrives in full strength?
I agree with Tony. I have been listening to the show for quite some time and its format appears to be changing.
Im sure most people that listen to you weekly do so because they share many of your opinions, so please less self-admiration and more economics!
Furthermore, I don’t agree with your demonisation of Hedge Funds. I work for one in London and honestly can’t see how we are any worse than the Investment Bankers, Politicians etc. In fact Hedge Funds have become the scapegoat for a situation these institutions have created (albeit, often to their benefit). Lets not let Gordon Brown pull the wool over the publics eyes by blaming short-selling for the market collapse that is occuring.
Sesame,
someone working for a Hedge fund complaining about being picked on?
I though you were made of tougher stuff…
What do you expect? The press never gave you a tough time in the past, you hardly got a mention, the public kept ignorant means they’ll stay ignorant when the chips are down.
As much as I’ve tried my efforts to put hedge funds in a positive light have back fired.
Thank God you two alleviated my concerns about The Truth About Markets. Thank you for that.
Now to make sure The Oracle is available on YouTube or Blip.
Stacy had an interesting idea about jamming Rotten and Cramer. It’s not my expertise but I gave it a quick whirl. http://media.putfile.com/Rotten-Cramer
I’m open to suggestions to make another Rotten/Cramer file.
One snippet of info which I felt compelled to share regarding the original developer of the area:
Sir George Downing was an enterprising rogue - a spy, traitor and shady property developer - who saw building houses on prime London land as a means to get rich quick.
stacy,
i don’t wanna break balls; and
i’m short on time, and haven’t really put much thought in to it, but, do you prepare an outline for your shows?
we need the news stacy [not the olds]
please keep max on the track of giving his interpretation of current events…. we depend on your steadiness stacy.
this is my request….. [or critique, call it what you want]
If a major power / utility companies is at risk of going bust… with ‘the lights being switched out’ - is there any difference from a national threat perspective of ‘terrorist attack’ on major infrastructure?
Presumably that will come as a relief to Geir Haarde who was only just recently described as a terrorist by Gordon Brown due to the debt situation that Mr Haarde found himself in.
I didn’t know about the solar flare thing, but found some cool sun photos while researching: http://tinyurl.com/4hay23
A chilly winter in the Northern hemisphere would have quite an economic impact with high fuel costs when people are feeling poor already, not to mention the psychological aspect during the coming financially miserable months. Maybe the lack of flares won’t result in a cold winter, but it’s worth noting, IMO.

when did we demonize hedge funds?
for the most part, hedge funds are inert.
we try to get them to attack companies we don’t like via KarmaBanque.
Are you sure you’re posting on the right blog?

Just been doing some research into Downing St.
One snippet of info which I felt compelled to share regarding the original developer of the area:
Sir George Downing was an enterprising rogue - a spy, traitor and shady property developer - who saw building houses on prime London land as a means to get rich quick.
Some things never change.

So, the 42 day detention bill has failed.
Presumably that will come as a relief to Geir Haarde who was only just recently described as a terrorist by Gordon Brown due to the debt situation that Mr Haarde found himself in.
