I'd love to see Bernanke not cut rates today.

I could definitely see it happening, but my portfolio wouldn't like it. What time do they let us know? I want to watch the fireworks.

2pm. It is all they keep talking about today on the news. I can't see how they would fail to cut given how much everyone expects it. It would make an interesting day.

The guy who is selling his house but will give you back the full purchase price when he dies. Awful deal but everyone thinks it is great.

does BIDU still have any value? I bought it at 150 and sold it at 190 (steller move not), and I am actually reconsidering re entering in this position at 380 (!?). Anyone have any take on this? China is basically making it a monopoly.

anyone got any ideas for a good long term forex position other than JPY/USD (if i cant get CNY/USD)?

also anyone other commodity other than silver and gold? (i am kicking myself over not getting round to investing in oil when i was going to at $80). preferably a commodity with long term good prospects but not too correlated with gold and silver (which from what i know are very correlated).

many thanks if you can help.

also maybe a long term good stock?

sorry for having to ask, hopefully one day down the line ill be able to contribute better.

thanks if you can suggest a position.

john

Gold at $785. If it goes to $1000 before July 1st 2008, Barron owes me $500. Going to spend that money on a hooker on his dime.

I can't get two. The dollar is not what it used to be. Prices are going up, even for pussy.
