anotherone Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 ""I think we mentioned that 15,000 to 20,000 incremental people will go out," EDS What is an incremental person? Someone who is slowly, bit by bit, becoming human? Is it just me, or is this a strange use of language? Is it management speak? Translation: "As we speak more excrement comes out."

jstrack Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 I think its a shitzu.....that's why I stole it from some web site to use here....LOL I think it also befits some of my feelings about myself and I've even showed it to my mental health coach... When he asks me how I feel about this and that and I just show him the picture.... Sometimes I tell my coach about the bear boards and sometimes post on. I sometimes tell my coach that the whole econonmy is in big trouble and the currency is unstable and the stock market could decline a lot. My coach sometimes suggests that I have delusional tendancies and severe paranoia. I just have to laugh in a very curious and strange way at that, I mean he is just another sheeple..... :grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zensmoke Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 On a more positive note.... So here's my call: The standard wisdom was wrong about the convention bounces. And it's going to be wrong again -- about September being a bad month for stocks. September is going to be a great month for stocks, and so is October. But be prepared for more bad "news" along the way. There will be more earnings warnings and more disappointments, especially in the tech sector. But that's just the bad effects of the uncertainties of the last several months shaking themselves out of the system. As before, and as always, stocks will ignore the "news" and look to the future. The future is good, and the market is going to be very good too. So I'm very happy hanging in there with the pretty much fully invested equity position I have in my Strategy Lab portfolio and with my short position in Treasury bonds. Stocks are going higher. And when the seemingly brain-dead bond market finally gets the same message that stocks are beginning to see already, look out below. http://moneycentral.msn.com/content/StratL...nd10/P94192.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
