LOL Kay,

I trade the US markets (work from 9PM til 5AM perth time) so I know what you mean. It’s getting that if the sun’s rays strike me I recoil in horror[blink]

Cheers

Your disparagement of me thus far has been witty and humerous, even if your phraseology was faulted…and as I was sh*tstirring, I probably deserved it. No worries, fair cop.

This one though, was just childish[thumbsdownanim

Sorry didn’t get past the first paragraph[sleepyanim] perhaps you could summarize it for me.

Curious….why did you delete the cliche finder? I thought that was quite humorous! (serious, got a chuckle from that one!)

On one hand you say you hate seeing the way Australia is going and on the other you say that if there is a change of government you’re outta here.

Consider the UK……after the market has tanked!

$+ve + cap gains possible if purchasing at value.

Yeh, and he will ring a bell just before he starts buying.

Pisces

[lmao]Love your sense of humour, very satirical. He won’t be ringing any bells, but when he does buy, be assured the market will know about it.

Anyhow, that is beside the point and not…[Read more]

Timing the market or time in the market?

If you buy at very high historical valuations, you run the risk of REDUCING your equity, and net worth, when things ultimately correct.
In the long run this will be temporary….but how long is temporary? 1 year, 2 years, 5 years?

Is it not better to buy at historically neutral or lower valuations?

If…[Read more]

The funny thing I notice about that is that people pay a fortune to be near the beach, but rarely go there.

They are too busy working to pay for their “lifestyle”.

But it’s certainly true what you say Redwing.

An American decided to write a book about famous churches around the world. For his first chapter he decided to write about Australian churches. So he bought a plane ticket and took a trip to Hobart, thinking that he would work his way across the country from South to North.

On his first day he was inside a church taking photographs when he…[Read more]

The prophecy is coming true.

It was all forecasted last year.

Actually, Blind Freddie would have seen it coming.

Nah, I would make myself very unpoular with some here. (But I’ve probably already done that elsewhere[])

All that is true, but these things are cyclical in nature.

Also, underlying the warm and fuzzy positives, is a dangerously high level of credit, as thefisrstbruce has pointed out above…some say a credit bubble.

Some economists have raised the spechtre of deflation, which is equally damaging. For a really scary read, go out and get…[Read more]

That is a very good question. Thats why, as things stand at the moment with low interest rates etc, I favour an extended sideways correction, a protracted plateau. Time will eventually catch up with price.
