Down goes the Dow

Again with the unsubstantiated assumptions! You sure sound like a Trumpie.

Elle,

Unsubstantiated assumptions, I trust you are not referring to our former President.

Igy

Obviously I was referring to you. Even you should have been able to figure that out.

Instead of supporting your "case" against Sally, you change the subject repeatedly. The reason for that is obvious. I am done with you.

Ellen,

OK, pretty funny since you called me a Trump supporter.

Back to the financial world. Earlier this year I did a British Pound to Dollar transaction at $1.41. The year before I did a similar transaction at $1.52 to the Dollar. Earlier this morning the British pound traded as low as $1.18 to the Dollar. Some large percentage moves moves in currency, interest rates and precious metals.

Ever hear of Brexit?

Try,

I thought Brexit wasn't a problem and that is why the market was hitting new highs? I guess that view has changed. Here's more from a CNBC report:

"German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble on Friday warned that a new financial crisis could not be ruled out and said he agreed with the International Monetary Fund's assessment of banking system risks from "ultra-loose" monetary policy."

You darn well know they are one in the same.

Perfect example of how stupid you guys are. I am k5 and Iggy is not. Anyone with a modicum of intelligence could discern from our writing styles we are not the same person. Which, of course, leaves you clowns out.

I am always impressed by how the most ignorant people are so certain they are right.

Hi, K5/Igy! You should wait more than 5 minutes between posting using different names if you're really think you can fool some people.

POTO>0,

A glorius victory will be declared at DOW 13,000.

Igy

that from a year ago.

we're up 11% over 52 weeks.

Unpleasant recordkeeping aside, Igy I plan to race on Sunday. I had a good running week, two good workouts, am 100% healthy, and paid my entry fee. So I really think I'll be on the line. 5k. Weather looks good.

Hope you can get out there too.

agip,

Mr. POTO and I have doubled down on our bet, I believe the new target for 13,000 is sometime in March. Do you realize the Dow is actually 110 points lower, as I write, from when I first posted here 3/2/2015? I hope you had a chance to read the piece I posted from Henry Blodgett written in May of 2007. I think it is a good reminder to those that want to discount the importance of traditional valuation metrics.

Good luck on your race. Hope your weather is good. We have a bit of a heat wave this weekend with temperatures approaching 80. I am working back into training, I had a bit of a hot spot on the top of my foot. So I scaled back a little bit. At the same time I was catching up on outside household chores before winter sets in. That is now pretty much complete. The weekend plan is an easy eight miles in the foothills with my buddies.

Have a good weekend. Give me an update on how it went.

Well! I'll be darn. I guess I was wrong. This can't be the same guy, he spelled "IGGY" wrong.

This Igy guy sure has a way with the ladies. R U sure he's not jamin?

Don,I'll let you decide if a female that tells one to "grow a set" should be referred to as a Lady.Igy

That's actually pretty good advice. You should thank her. Flowers might be appropriate.

Don,

I'll let you do that, send the flowers that is. You might also take her "advice" since you don't have enough courage to register your name.

The term "post Brexit" is the dumbest thing ever made up by the media. Brexit hasn't even started yet. Even the beginning of getting everything figured out as to how it will work hasn't begun. Its just an event that is going to happen sometime in the future and Theresa May gave more clarity last week as to when it will happen.

The high volatility around Brexit a couple months back was just on the vote. Specifically how "expert" bettors had bet the wrong way.

See what I mean. In a wasteland filled with lowbrows, this guy's stupidity still manages to stand out. As usual he is wrong and as usual he cannot even entertain the possibility he may not be right.

His ignorance topped only by his ineffective obnoxiousness.

What does courage have to do with registering a name?
