Dow to close 2011 at 13,000 or above

There was no Fed Reserve to fix things back then. Not relevant.

And what happened to the US 1865-1899? DeeeeeeeeeFLATION!

Of course...The Fed is in charge now...I feel so much better.

I have not made any short-term predictions for 2011 due to very murky waters...until today...so for entertainment purposes only, here's the prediction:

The Dow will close 2011 at 13,000 or above. That's about a 16% climb from today's 11,200 area.

Enjoy.

3 months later...11500 and dropping like a stone...

Enjoy.

The joke will be on you come the "how'd you do this year" thread. I will make a much safer prediction and say that Old Willy will still come out up 15% on the year.

You can't be serious. People can come on here and claim anything they want regarding their investment performance. Kind of like everyone on here being a sub 13:40 guy.

Unless someone is going to publish their account numbers and passwords for all to see any number posted here is completely unverifiable. And you're going to put any weight at all on such claims?!? Unbelievable.

You have to understand the only thing that really matters in life to some people is how the return on their portfolio is perceived. You know, losers.

3 weeks to go, 12,165 and climbing. I don't think Flagpole is going to quite get there, but it looks like he's going to be close (maybe if you can get Peeps to put up another one about how the market's going to fall 1000 points in the same time span...).

Peeps has the Dow going down 1000 points 1 week from today.

Flag has the Dow going up nearly 1000 points 3 weeks from today

If they are both right it will be a wild ride.

Flag is closer with more time to get there.

We'll see. As of this morning, I was up 3.6% on the year, right in lock step with the Dow.

Who. Really. Cares.

Neither are going to be right.

Anyone still betting on this?

Christ, it must have been five f***ing years ago if it was a goddamn day. Saw in the results of some f***tacious rootytoot West coast track meet that some son of a bitch named after a bluecollar trade and a mancock respectively had run for a friggin' "team" called Letsrun.com. And fast as all f***spit was he! Like 28 minutes fast! "C***fire!" I yelled, bashing my prong against my wifeslut's cheek in my rigid-dicked excitement, "I'm gonna surf to that f***in' URL and see what this hotshit team is all about!" So I pointed my tittybitched ass at this site and what the hell happened? Little did I was opening up a huge f***ing goddamn can of what the F***!?! Dinkbrained f***holes talking shit straight outta their barking spiders about every decent f***ing American runner out there on this side! Halfwit twatjammwers chattering about f****** and hotness on the other! But luckily, a couple of real f***ing gems, the sort of shit worth saving to your f***ing hard drive, in the middle! But mostly just filthy f***in' bullshit from overgrown teenage f***tards and assorted bungpuppies purposely out to offend anyone with half a f***in' eye open. Luckily those retarded piss-sprayers have mostly blown the straight the f*** away into the shitbin of the internet.

I'm sure this was just another Flagpole goof. The joke's on us for thinking he was serious.
