      Paulson's Fannie / Freddie Dance
      Hey, he is only worth $600 million-what a loser. Really, now paulson is a government man. He has to say things like "We believe in a strong dollar policy". You can't believe anyone in the government.

      Getting Out of Today's Bear Market
      I think you can compare Oil to the Nasdaq in 1998. Consumer spending is going down. The economy is going to take a hit. better to invest in China.

      Stagflation and the Limits of Growth
      The US is going to have problems for at least a couple of years, it has bad fundementals. That is why I'm short. China on the other hand has had a big decline but has great long-term fundementals. High saving. Over $1 trillion in reserves. Short the US-go long China.

      Saving Fannie and Freddie
      Greenspan said it took him long time to understand Fannie derivative book. Fortune say these companies could cause a trillion dollar bail out from tax payers. They were over-leveraged, nobody understood their derivatives, and they didn't file financial statements for 2 years. You could see it coming.

      Why $140/Barrel Crude is Unsustainable
      The article is so wrong. Oil could be at a short-term peak but oil is going to get so expensive that it is a national emergency. I think oil is still cheap. So do the best experts.
