I have earned my place with over 15,000 posts... you have earned the right to say what you want... but when a newbie troll tries to paint FR as something it is not... I will stand up and say my piece. BTW, Jim has banned quite a few 98 clubbers... most with good reason... and if you equate a few days to 4 years and many thousands of posts... as well as monetary support at every request, you need to reevaluate pal.

My original response was to the attack on what FR is made up of... do you agree with that post? If so... why?

The spiel got old, especially since it is total B.S.
There is a LOT more going on that is affecting the market besides a presidential election.

Thats due to the increased probability of a McCain victory.Like capitalists can`t recognize a Marxist when they see one!

Post 17? Yes, I agree with that post for the most part. It was an “attack” if you want to call it that, on the objectivity of FR especially regarding the market predicting Obama or McCain. Did Obama make the Japanese yen soar against the soaring dollar and the dollar soar against the Euro? The best reasoning for that was unwinding carry trade which has nothing to do with any elections anywhere.

looks like the markets are just as optimistic as we are about palin’s chances of getting to the white houes!

One thing I didn't expect was for oil to drop so percipidicly. I really thought our economy was in trouble.
But since all over seas markets are falling and defaulting on loans, there is no hobgoblin sitting on the horizon ready to gobble up all the failed institutions and nations.
Basically, we all default together, we all end up owing one another at the same rate.
In the end it is a wash. The market should roar back in spring 2009.

Soros and Buffet (Im assuming) were in about 3:15 ET to push the market lower, but they couldnt keep it down. Still closed off its highs though.I've been wondering about the late day volatility. Can you explain more what you think Soros and Buffet are doing?

Basically shorting S&P futures. I understand that there are ways to do it, though I myself have never done that ( nor would I - manipulators should be waterboarded). Jim Cramer explains in an interview on Youtube how he did it.
