i'm thinking a deep recession lasting into 09. although, the housing and banking crisis is the worst since the 1929 depression.

i believe we're currently in the beginning stages of a recession, which IMO will kick in to the market AFTER the holiday. (floor traders and brokers need their bonus'.)

not much will happen in the market on Monday. everyone's waiting until the Fed announces (tommorrow) it's decision on rate cuts.

bush has systematically destroyed this country financially and otherwise. our country is heading for a severe recession as a result of his failed policies. in the coming months, the stock market will come crashing down. mark my words.

cash is king !

the new recession comes due to subprime-based mortgage securities that were AAA-rated and sold to fund managers in EU and US without them giving due dilligence to the underlying asset they placed their client's funds into

easy borrowing environment will eventually lead to some sort of economic downtrun - it's been predicted by economists decades ago - nothing new...

be careful and don't get sucked into the "interest rate rallies".......with earnings decelerating looking forward, there's nothing to move the market past 14k and beyond. traders will push the market up to the 14k area again, where i believe it will FAIL. besides, if rates are lowered again (for WS) the dollar will continue to plunge.......which is NOT GOOD.


that's my opinion and i'm sticking to it.

keep in mind this is "bonus" season. ANYTHING short of the sun exploding will keep WS from selling this market off.

as stated before....all bets are off AFTER the holiday.

whenever the market is PURELY dependent on the Fed cutting rates to move HIGHER.......trouble lurks, so be careful.  ;) 


IMHO.

guys...please be careful. things are much worse than CNBC and Jim Cramer are willing to admit. if not for seasonality, this market would be totally screwed.

careful with what? it's not that you can do much to effect economic recession...reshuffle portfolio, buy few "safe heaven" assets - but in a recessionary environment, especially consumer driven as this one is going to be, everyone's screwed one way or the other - gotta just sit it out

after yesterday's 300 point loss in the Dow.....expect the Plunge Protection Team to try and juice the market today.

market trivia: although MOST stock brokers/planners say it's "impossible to time the market."  if the average stock investor put his money into the market every Oct and cashed out by May 1st every year, he would INCREASE his profits by nearly 40%.....by just avoiding exposure to the market in the summer months.

careful of what you ask ? if the market drops 20+ percent during this upcoming recession (recessions average 35-40% market corrections) why the fvck would you do NOTHING before the shit hits the fan ? your clearly dumb money.

if sitting in a mutual fund as it drops 20- 40 percent is fun to YOU.....enjoy yourself.

ok, i agree...so where u gonna shift money to? metals? bonds? if you have long position in the fund and it drops 4000 points today, then what exactly have you lost in a 3-5 year perspective? at the end of the day its the cash available to us on a daily basis that matters..
