Some call have called it chart porn. Who am I to argue differently? The data is certainly obscene. ;)Stagflationary Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04568993350246477976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515247115132134144.post-1980374821280284932013-02-04T15:03:46.576-08:002013-02-04T15:03:46.576-08:00Troy,

The early-year rally that on Friday took the Dow Jones Industrial Average to within 1% of its record high, set in 2007, could have a lot further to run. For starters, stocks aren't expensive."</i><br /><br />DOW 36k here we come. /sarcasm<br /><br />I plan to make at most two trades this year. Compared with 100 two years ago, and 20 last year. I don't count buying I-bonds or nickels each month as a trade. BTW, I still love nickels. The metals is worth 5.42 cents today and it costs the treasury 11 cents to mint one. The days of negative seignoirage are numbered. <br /><br />The world is crazy so you have to out-crazy it.<br />Mr Slipperynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515247115132134144.post-4515783945134346302013-02-03T22:40:50.547-08:002013-02-03T22:40:50.547-08:00I just don't get those who can't believe i...I just don't get those who can't believe in "new normal" theories.Stagflationary Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04568993350246477976noreply@blogger.com
