The only thing we can be certain of is that no one knows what is going to happen. None of these people on TV and elsewhere know the future. We could do better by throwing darts at a dartboard.

Your post #18 gives everyone a great big hint.

The market's been grand to me this year, of course I'm in junior precious metals stocks.

The outlook is sunny as all get out for us mining folks.

Say."Good-bye Lucent, hello Consolidated Moose-Pasture!"

Trust me. ;^)

Now, they blame Clinton and 9/11 for the Bush Recession and resulting fall of the DJIA.

It always amazes me that people just don't get it that the markets began their downward spiral in 1st Q of 2000. Such a short memory. The markets were tanking for one full year before GWB was inaugurated.

Not that I expect rat trolls to understand such things.

Don't waste your time responding to MoronMom. He(she)only drops a smelly turd and then runs.

A new cyclical bear market started in March 2000. It could last from 5 to 15 years. Money can still be made, it's just not easy anymore.

With Dumbya in charge investment in cash at 1.25% has been a successful strategy. Pity the value of your portfolio if your wishes are granted and your MIA war hero and his Repukie syncophants continue their failed borrow-and-spend policies in 2003.

Why don't you stop taking so many hits off the bong you disgusting socialist sycophant. Your strategy is to tax people to death. Oh yeah, that works real well.

Happy New Year, Ivan!

May the screams of the babies that you and your kind are happy have been aborted torment you in your sleep forever.

Ivan

Wouldn't you have the borders closed if terroism were the problem? What should one make of this following article & what have we done in Afganistan but sign ageements to push thru an oil pipeline? The people of Afgaistan are hardly getting any aid & the rebels are back in the territory. Why not smell the coffee & see that this gov will not protect us

Go back to Democrat Underground. Do you realise how big the borders are, how many miles of coastline have to be sealed and so on to achieve this "border closed" fantasy you wish to continue? Do you have any idea of the disruption of trade? Speaking as someone who just visited the United States, it IS much harder to get in.

This childish nonsense you indulge in that says by a stroke of a pen that the borders can somehow be magically hermetically sealed is ridiculous. Grow up.

2003 should be a year of cautious improvement

I disagree...Markets closed with monthly bearish englufing patterns...I think we are in for more downside...Dow around 6000, S&P 700, Compx under 1000...Gold 450...dollar down....

Thats my view from this crows nest...

Oh, I know, it's a waste of time. She's a hit and runner. A real coward who doesn't want to actually answer anyone who wants to respond to her.

And I can never figure out why the dims don't get it that we have a 2-party system.

They're as bad as the taliban, hating everyone who isn't like them. Real sore-losermans (sore-losermen?). Shows how totalitarian they really are, that they can't be gracious losers now and then.

Maybe GWB and the Republicans should build another nuclear power plant for the North Koreans like you're cult hero Klintler did. That would sure solve everyones problems now wouldn't it?

...making the current share price slump one of the longest on record.

Bull. The January 1973 crash took 12 (twelve) years to break even, for one fully invested at the beginning.
