Re: Reasons why I will not be getting injected for the Wuhan
"Masks and lockdowns do work and were implemented even in heavy red states when things got out of control The vaccination program is indisputably and rapidly bringing the numbers down." Care do support these statements? I'd like to see this too. Florida was one of the red states that implemented ma...

Re: Dr Seuss
I guess my kids' copies of Scrambled Eggs Super and McElligot's Pool are now very valuable! I've seen the allegedly racist image from Mulberry Street: it's a picture of a Chinese guy eating with chopsticks saying "and a Chinaman who eats with sticks". Well... don't they? And how is that not an earl...

Re: mathjak's daytrading adventures
Also, (and this works for me...maybe not anyone else) I have to continuously remind myself that I didn't really earn any of that money I made over the last two years. I didn't have to wake up early, or bleed or sweat for any of it....I sort of won it. So really from the standpoint of honesty it was...

Re: The GOLD scream room
I don’t want to put the burden on her, Mark. That’s true love. O0 If she starts to get big eyes, likes the word "precious" and draws out "S" sounds, you definitely need to leave. Promise Mark and I if that happens you will move on, will you? 😂 You got it, Vinny! By the same token, i have a favorite...

I don’t want to put the burden on her, Mark. That’s true love. O0 I'm glad you said that. I was going to respond but I wanted to let you first respond.

Re: Volcker
We're basically there. I think this is more a ceiling than asymptotic because we're talking about transistors being so small that quantum effects prevent them from working anymore so we can't fit any more transistors on a silicon chip. Which had been something that had been being said for how long?...

Re: Why a housing scarcity?
Sure hope lending rules haven't been loosened along with all of this again.... In my area, houses seem to go under contract immediately, and the few that I have spoken to got a few thousand over asking price. So who is buying in a state that is losing people? Are buyers coming out to Buffalo Grove ...
Re: Volcker
technology is massively deflationary I used to take this as a given as well, and I pointed to Moore's law as an underlying reason for this. But Moore's law is hitting a physical boundary and so at least from computing power technology we can start to see a ceiling. Of course, improvements in effici...

Re: Coronavirus General Discussion
Generally not a concern of mine. But it seems like this type of thing would be of concern to more than a few here. But maybe I've misread those people.

Re: Coronavirus General Discussion

Re: Maximum Bond Upside
Switzerland's 50 year bond (to be precise, it's actually 48 years, due 2064) yield today fell to an all time low of 0.32%. Yes, if you want to lend Switzerland money for the next 50 years, you're only going to get 0.32% interest per year. Clearly at some point investors should just not be buying bo...

Plus during the mid- to late 90s to 2002, I'd invested $30,000 in my IRA, saw it peak at $130,000, and en...
