Watched that entire hearing and was completely disguised. Dinosaurs like Levin and McCain, who have been in congress so long that they probably wrote most of the 10k pages of our convoluted tax code themselves, are grandstanding and shifting blame, just like Apple is shifting profits. Move us to the Fair Tax and all this goes away. But that will never happen because grandstanding and power is more important to these dinosaurs than fairness and opportunity.

I look for a sell off when everyone in the media talks about the bull market and makes recommendations to buy stock. Especially when Bears start turning into Bulls. I'm buying ETF's in SPXS, gold and silver. Arthur Salcido on 5/22/2013 11:33:31 AM |
Charles, the biggest Bear sign are the Goldman Sachs comments unveiling the great uninvested to come right in to Grandma's - - - the big bad wolf's - - - nice safe house. The Sports "analysts" using money analogies is nothing new. . . I can tell you from direct experience having a NFL team as a client that sports is REALLY about fast money and nothing else.

Holding my favorite positions and adding small ones when I get great tips (like Charles P's recommendation of RAD). Also, reducing positions so none exceed a few % so when the sell off hits I can leave Dodge quickly. Have 50% in cash. Jane B. on 5/22/2013 12:56:01 PM |
When non financial people start using stock market jargon run for the hills. Or when financial periodicals feature 21 year old college drop outs who can become stock trading geniuses by attending a one day seminar. What's that saying, the more things change....the more they stay the same. Michelle on 5/22/2013 2:17:37 PM |
I suppose, I have learned not to panic when the market goes up and down. I am not very sophisticated when it comes to investments, the market, I do know if you leave your 401k alone, or stocks, alone for some time - it tends to do well. I am most fearful of our government. It's effect on us. It is too Gigantic. Look at this IRS fiasco. Where are the protesters.....Why aren't the Tax Payers in the streets? Get the .... out of the hearings and get out on the streets. This is unforgivable. The IRS would prosecute me if I did not pay my taxes properly. Get these overpaid blow hards out of a job. I'll work there for half!!! Anyway, I still believe this is the greatest country in the world and can be even better. This President is aloof and beholdin to no one. His agenda is clear. I think he is going to blow it.. big time! Thanks for reading, M. Simms California Mindy Simm on 5/22/2013 3:23:45 PM |
Hi Charles, "Scandals"?? Something I would like to share with you, is that I object to the use of the word "Scandal", being used by many news sources, to describe the allegations against the IRS, State Dept, Justice Dept, & Obama administration re: the Targeting of Conservatives, the Benghazi attack & surveillance of the AP & Fox reporter. It sounded wrong to me, & when I looked it up, I confirmed that "Scandal" is a word more properly used to describe wrongdoing of a "Moral" nature. Whereas, each of these issues are investigations of possible actual crimes by our government against it's own people. The use of the word tends to diminish their seriousness... treating them like sleazy tabloid stuff. I think this is evidence that many have succumbed to the idea that we don't expect our elected officials & govt. workers to abide by the law... and this is a dangerous path to be on! We are supposed to be able to rely on our govt. to ENFORCE the law, not act like they are above it. Thx! Laurel Laurel Di Tomaso on 5/22/2013 3:25:14 PM |
