in Outcomes for Deflationists and Inflationists on Gregor.us
Gregor, you are seeing the game several moves ahead, what you do best. btw, FWIW, not to mention FYI, Helene Meisler on Realmoney cites a Market Vane bullish conensus of 82% going into this week, so the timing between now and at least a bond correction might be measured in days.

Was that a marketvane measure of bullishness towards bonds?

in The First Loss is The CHEAPEST! on Howard Lindzon
Incredible! So when Ali Velshi runs around every media outlet saying "don't sell now, you are locking in your losses", he is actually telling people waht they want to hear. No wonder he's so popular right now, and his viewers so poor. Thanks for these tremendous insights, I should have a psychologist review all of my trading decisions.

I think the point is you must man up and there are only two choice. If you have no plan on the way in, you are doomed in the current scanrio.

in Chatting with the Argentines on Gregor.us
Those who think Canada will be a safe haven are going to be very disappointed.

Depends on what version of safe haven one is using. In a global recession, the one sturdy aspect about Canada may be the currency. So, if one were to have a teaching or a nursing job in Canada, at least one would be likely to have purchasing power. We might not be so lucky here in the States.

Canada has not maxed out their idle resources. Economic specialization is high, for our country.
As a nation...
Our people are diverse, educated and moderatly rational. We do a much better job of living within our means, and our housing (although collapsing in the west due to commodity boom/bust) is still inexpensive relative to other places in the world. We have water, uranium, lumber. Our government priorities are for the most part, sane combined with mostly intelligent fiscal policy.
Personally...
I own stocks...as far away as singapore. ...I own a Brazilian Bank ...I own a European utlitiy conglomerate ...I own a global alt energy provider not even traded on the NYSE ...I just happen to live in Canada, and I am still investing in the only asset that can't be traded -> education. ...plus I understand and sell derivatives every month...on assets I own and won't mind selling at a higher price if the option is excercised.
I am Canadian, and If I'm not going be "safe" ... if I can't build myself a "safe haven"...well...not much else, I know how to do...but my money is on this country being better off than many...in terms of really the only measure that matters, standard of living.
...but, I have not yet lived, a quarter century. So, I have, I'm sure less insight than you. Any feedback and insight is appreciated and welcome. But, I don't respond well to doomsday warnings sans academic foundation or any reference to bearish trends against my home country.
