Yoni ignores me without having to put me on his ignore list. He is also not fond of clarifying statements he made from outer space. Maybe it had something to do with the statements weightlessness.
Get it?
See?
Works great.

You don't ask for much, do you?
Responding to the le of this thread: No, there will be no market crash (in the US). And if there were to be one, it's stupid to buy international stocks because when the US market crashes, it takes with it Therest of the Wordl's makets.
With regards to other themes in this thread, I don't get why people put other people on ignore.
And whoever has Yoni as their favorite poster (and you know I like you, TRO), needs to rethink many things.

Sometimes it's simply because they clutter the thread with nonsense.
Even so.
But hey, it's a free country and a free site.
Buffett's purchase wasn't because of fear of a recession, it was because he's pretty tapped out here in the U.S. and looking to expand internationally.Investing guru Warren Buffett seems to agree with the Merrill team. His Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK-A - News; NYSE: BRK-B - News) just bought its first-ever foreign firm and dropped hints about looking for more. The insurance, fast-food, and underwear conglomerate (among other things) picked up an 80% stake in Israeli toolmaker Iscar Metalworking for $4 billion, and Buffett said that he's facing increased compe ion from global-minded private equity firms. "They may end up buying some businesses we would have liked to have bought instead," he said.
Agreed that RG is a very reasonable poster.
Yonivore obviously only wants to read things that confirm his opinions.
Notice the plethora of extra evidence for EGW that's come out in the last month or two since our last tangle, Yoni? Notice that big business, and even your own govt, is talking about changing its policy on that one? Nah, you only hear what you want to...
As for the recession, it's been coming for a while, and where the US goes the world will follow. I'm waiting for the usual October stockmarket correction so I can get into some attractive renewable energy shares I've been tracking...
Exactly. And, I choose to exercise my freedom to use the ignore feature of this forum at my discretion.
If that were the case I wouldn't be reading you or Nbadan or FromWayDowntown along with several other with whom I differ in opinion.
I actually posted on EGW (I almost wasn't able to translate the acronym) just today.
And, I've argued in the past that their may be global warming but that there is far from conclusive evidence that it is caused by man.
But, the real cruxt of my argument is that even if global warming is occurring, economy-busting measures like Kyoto would turn us into a third world economy before even beginning to address any meaningful reductions in green house gases.
If the administration is changing its policy on global warming they've obviously found a way to shut up the critics while saving the economy.
Yoni IS the class bully. He can dish it out all day long, but can't take it back.
Don't let him get to you.
It isn't the world markets that will make money. It will be the currency slide.Responding to the le of this thread: No, there will be no market crash (in the US). And if there were to be one, it's stupid to buy internationsl bonds because when the US market crashes, it takes with him trhe rest of the Wordl's makets.

Are you kidding? He's the victim of mod oppression!Can't even answer a simple yes or no question.He can dish it out all day long, but can't take it back.Feh. He's no whottt.Don't let him get to you.
You really want to put sand in his thong?
Keep responding to my posts. (think about it)
I hate when you sneak these ones in.(good natured poke at the combatants)
(makes a bowl of popcorn)
Man this is entertainment. Not as good as watching the spurs pwn Denver, but it will do in the off season.
*munch* *munch*
Dork!!
Nutcase!!
Dweeb!!
Jerk!!
(laughs)
Wondered when you would notice that one.
Back to the topic at hand tho:
I think the advice/thrust of the original article is that one should hedge a little against a market downturn, more so than the article being 100% doom and gloom.
I think its funny Yonivore spent pages discussing a person he's "ignoring".
I honestly think he has me on ignore because I am the most effective person at calling him on his B.S.
It is a safe bet that we can all acknowledge that he really isn't interested in learning or reading about ideas he doesn't agree with any more than boutons is.
Given this bit of information, which is more probable:
A) He ignores someone because he thinks they are silly (as he says).
or
B) He ignores someone because he knows that person will challenge his ideas effectively (as I think).
(shrugs)
It used to really bother me, but I have come to terms with it. If he is happy in his cocoon, peace be onto him. I wish him well in that cocoon. Not that I won't poke him on occasion...

Actually, FromWayDowntown, is much better at it and I don't have him on ignore. Go figure.I did this simply because I want Yoni to be able to read you posts
My opinion on posters who I don't agree with most of the time.
Dan- Very intelligent but a communist
Buttons- A communist but boy he knows his basketball.
FWDT- Very good poster
Manny- well informed don't agree with most of what he says but he's cool.
RG- No real world experience and talks funny, but has potential.
Chump- doesn't say anything but supports all liberal causes
Phew . . . I thought I was going to make your list.
?? "no real world experience?"
Dude, counting the 4 yrs in the army, I have worked more in my adult life than I have been in school. What counts as "real world experience"?
smartalic...sorry for you we agree a lot.
