  • Beige Book Not the Greatest Recession Indicator
    Herb, weekly unemployment claims of only 311,000 are entirely inconsistent with recession.

    It's a shame you hate America so much.

    A lot of wealth has been created over the past 5 years while you've been whining and complaining about anything and everything.

    All that negative energy is very unhealthy. It's no wonder you're a journalist. You couldn't make it in a real job.

  • Office Depot: Super Cheap or Mistake?
    I'm glad you plan to ride this into the dirt. Historical financial statement analysis is meaningless.

    The stores face intense competition, are poorly run and have mostly young, low paid disgruntled employees.

    Unhappy employees are almost always a sign that a company is headed into bankruptcy.

    I predict bankruptcy in late 2009.

    Enjoy!

  • Is the GPS Golden Age Already Over?
    Garman is toast. TomTom is a better GPS and is a lot cheaper. Garman will face intense price competition and device competition from Apple, Motorola and Nokia.

    Enjoy!

  • Cool Hand Bernanke Protects a Bankrupt Fed
    The reason why you all are LOSERS is because you only see the negative. Winners see problems as opportunities. Losers see problems as reasons for why they are Losers.

    Losers choose to be victims. It's easier to sit around and do nothing while blaming others for your problems.

    LOSERS will always be LOSERS.

  • Cool Hand Bernanke Protects a Bankrupt Fed
    You people are true morons. America will adjust just fine and continue to be the beacon of freedom, liberty and innovation.

    Oil prices at $200+ barrel would be wonderful for the economy and our country. Diesel hybrids capable of 80 miles per gallon is available right now. We just need the economic incentive to bring these to market.

    As bad debt is destroyed, capital will flow out of misallocated sectores and into underinvested areas such as energy, infrastructure and manufacturing. This is the beauty of our capitalistic system. It is flexible and dynamic.

    Don't bet against America. It's a bad bet that has never, ever paid off in the long run and in unlikely to do so in the next 100 years.

    People who are pessimists like all of you are just LOSERS.

  • The Real Story on Countrywide, Cont.
    Herb, your conspiracy theories are annoying and show how whacked out crazy you are.

    Let's assume for a moment that you're right and that B of A has a put option to the government.

    Don't you think that would be a material item requiring disclosure by their outside accountants? So you're saying the outside accountants are in on the conspiracy too?

    The only put option is Bernanke's assurance that he will have fed funds down to about 2% one year from now. That will allow a nice healthy spread to be earned to recapitalize the banks.

    You really need to think through your conspiracy theories before spouting them off in public. They only serve to make you look stupid.

  • The Right Price for Rite Aid
    I believe Rite Aid will file for bankruptcy in 2009. They are poorly operated, especially on the west coast and they have no financial flexibility to weather a consumer led recession.

    This is a much worse situation than Kmart when they filed for bankruptcy.

    This is a zero in my opinion.

  • Bernanke's Becoming a Nightmare
    It's not Bernanke's job to bail out the idiots who bought houses they couldn't afford using loans they chose not to understand.

    Our economy needs to adjust to an equilibrium that allows sustainable and balanced growth.

    Borrow on the house and go on spending sprees while we gut our manufacturing base is a road to disaster.

  • Refi Volume Soars: Who Benefits?
    gold at $900, silver at $16.30, CRB at an all-time high.

    great call on deflation. What's deflating? Your bank account?

  • Bill Gross: Our 'Shadow' Banking System Needs a Fed Bailout
    Let me get this straight. You want the Fed to confiscate interest earnings from responsible savers to bail out the banks who lent money to liars and speculators that are now defaulting?

    And then you want to borrow more from the Asians to finance a tax cut that we can't afford.

    Sounds good Bill. You're a real snake oil salesman.

  • The Recession is Here: Some Won't Notice Until It's Almost Over
    You're a prolific writer but you're never right. How many years have you been on the Deflation bandwagon?

    Meanwhile, food prices are soaring, gold is soaring, prices for all essentials are soaring.

    Nice call, Mish.

  • National Debt & Interest Payments For Fiscal 2008
    Hey Mish, food prices are soaring, gold is nearing $900, gasoline is heading to $4/gallon. Great call on Deflation. You've been screaming it now for years.

    Do you ever admit when you're wrong?

  • Can a Fed Move Stop the Debt Supercycle?
    Prechter has been calling for the Grand Supercycle Top for over a decade now. A determined federal reserve can avoid a deflationary debt collapse and they will likely avoid it once again.

    Green pieces of paper with numbers and Presidents pictures have no intrinsic value.

    The continued erosion of the American standard of living will be achieved by perpetual devaluation of our currency.

    Prechter was probably right when he called the Grand Supercycle Top. He just chose the wrong measurement metric.

  • NutriSystem's 4Q Should Vindicate Past Quarters
    Nutrisystem is a fad that is quickly waning. Nobody wants to rely on their food for the long term. The only sustainable path to weight loss is a change in diet and exercise habits. A gimmick of pre packed food that must be purchased from Nutrisystem quickly dies out once people become disillusioned.

    I predice ntri goes bankrupt in 2009.

    Enjoy.

  • Lululemon Shares Roughed Up Despite Appointment of New VP
    What does coffee have to do with women's athletic apparel? Nothing. Sad to see they are hiring a person like this. The Starbucks stores have terrible operating standards. They are dirty and disgusting.

    They should have hired somebody from Nike.
