      Take your ball and go home. All you do is complain after you are exposed as a manipulator and liar. It’s beyond weird.
       
      We’re here to have discussions to learn and be honest. Not having either is a total waste of time. You have thousands of completely meaningless posts like the above. It’s time to grow up.

    Ran into a hedge-fund manager at the hotel bar last week. After a few drinks, he gave me this advice:
     
    “There will be a 7-8% run up in the next few months, followed by a much larger correction. Sell out at end of the run up.”
     
    YMMV

      That probably what people said when it was 12000 and got chopped in half.  It think if you look historically a 20-30% drop could be about right.

        Watch what will happen, too, Dan — I’m calling even this well ahead of time — when my predictions come perfectly true OR they are very close that any person with any sort of objective analysis would give credit, they’ll all scramble to distract and try their damndest to not give proper credit. I’m pre-empting that garbage because that’s an easier prediction than any I’ve made so far; their playbook is so obvious is childish.

          Thats fair enough
           
          But you can’t have it both ways
           
          You haven’t really got anything right yet
           
          Until that point you will be known as the guy who Flat out yelled from the rooftops that Gold 3500$ was some kinda  no brainer and anyone who dared to say otherwise was just plain out uniformed and stupid.  
           
          [b]AND[/b] you did do that…. several times actuually 
           
          You said Gold 3500$
           
          You said it very boldly
           
          and you acted like it was some Fng new law of phyiscs that was guaranteed and could not be challenged
           
          Maybe someday you will be a winner on the internet message board if you keep throwing stuff out there……..but ask yourself one Question?
           
          What is doing for you?  Are you making money off it?
           
          Basically you are just making Devils advocate worst case scenerio predictions based upon rhetoric.
           
          Thats what you doing and thats why you will never have a pot to pee in

              Again, you’re making things up. I haven’t been right, but I haven’t been wrong. You just like to paint pictures that are inaccurate, because I’m pretty much the only person that takes a stand. At least your post 2 back is somewhat reasonable, finally.
               
              I told you what I’m doing. Waiting on the sidelines, stockpiling cash and then I’ll get in — it’s exactly what I told you long ago. I’m not old (not sure how old you are) but I haven’t missed anything because I haven’t been making the big Rad money a long time, and this market for 2 years has just been leading up to a big movement downward. My patience will pay. You think I’m stupid, you are very wrong, oh so wrong.

    Looks like Russia and Saudis might call for an Oil production cut.  Should be interesting because at least in Russia they’ve been getting hammered by low oil, and cutting production probably means losing Russian jobs.  
     
    Facebook is interesting.  Stocks jumps huge off a 1.5billion dollar quarter, but the PE is like 109.  Something stinks with that stock.

    Barry Ritholz has a nice opinion piece today in WaPo.  It’s just coincidentally about the odds of a US recession, not a direct response to Trump’s call that a “massive recession” is coming, but…

    For at least five years, we have been hearing that the United States is on the verge of slipping into a recession.   Of course, it hasnt and probably wont anytime soon. Id like to talk about why that is and in the process look at how economic expansions end. 

    We can create a basic checklist to tell when an economic expansion cycle has begun to have run its full course:
    Full employment (check)
    Wage gains (hardly present)  
    Inflation (1.7 percent is far below recession levels)
    And last, an aggressive Federal Reserve tightening that takes interest rates too high. We are now at a mere 0.25 percent, perhaps going to 0.50 percent hardly soul-crushing rates. 

    One day in the future, wages will increase, prices will begin to rise and, eventually, a Fed rate hike cycle will go too far. That is when this economic expansion cycle will end. In the meantime, the economy is expanding, housing is recovering, we are near full employment, and we are just starting to see some modest signs of wages moving higher. That suggests more savings and investment and perhaps an increase in retail spending. …
     
     
    Enjoy the economic expansion; it will end just not as soon as the doomsayers believe

      I don’t make predictions on indices.  (well…. I do for sport here sometimes, but I don’t [i]invest[/i] based on those predictions)
       
       
      That caveat given. – No. I’m certainly not saying that.
       
      Anything from +10% to -10% for the year is a reasonable possibility.
       
      Dow 21,000 would be a 15-20% rise for the year.  Could happen if the elections go smoothly, corporate earnings pick up in the second half of the year, global oil settles a bit higher, China doesn’t crap out, global geopolitics don’t explode, and the US economy gets up and over 2.5%… but I wouldn’t bet on all that.

        I’d only guess it’s going to be another roller coaster year.  Up is down, down is up.  I think there’s some detachment from reality between what the fed will do with interest rates and what the market wants them to do (free money in perpetuity for investor class).  I was reading something earlier about how fed rate went up, yet mortgage rates went down.

      I would say the market drops around 10%, but probably bounces back a little quicker than most think

        I’m still waiting for that buying opportunity.  Looks like the markets are rallying on a Republican victory… Anyone else remember the predictions of immediate market doom and gloom peddled by the media immediately before the election? Wrong as always.. tech sector took a slight hit for obvious reasons though. Regardless, we are well overdue for correction so we’ll see what happens going forward…

                    Now I could be wrong, but again, you’re not gonna see me put a lot of money into this market. With Trump not being incompetent, though, unlike the past several presidents, we could easily see it sustain. The whole irrational longer than you can be solvent idea.

                      Market at all time highs with BO in office. Yes let’s hope Trump’s competencies can keep that going.

                      Fed just raised interest rate

                       
                      This post shows amazing contradiction and lack of understanding of what makes (made) the market go, while foolishly deriding someone, then only to come back and show again (fed just raised rates) why the first statement was so doltish!

      This morning I was thinking that the DOW 17,000 thread might turn out to be overly optimistic soon.
       
      As I just looked, I found myself saying out loud “Holy Crap!!!”
       
      18,551.75+219.01 (+1.19%) As of 2:06 PM EST. Market open.

        Inflation.
         

        Trump is about to make inflation great again.

        The legislative firepower to enact a slew of populist policies has investors betting that more upward price pressures are on the way, whether it be from tighter immigration, trade protectionism, or the enhanced public spending and tax cuts expected of the Republican President-Elect.
