jickiss is back!

 

 

 

jickiss is back!

 

 

and

 

First, Mr. Jay Lamont's final RE Show (at least throught the Winter, if he goes on vacation as he reported he would do last week on the Radio) is now playing on AM 950 in Philly. Question: Will Lamont ever go back to RE talk radio??????

 

(your jickiss says that when LONG TERM INTERST RATES GO UP, well, then RE will real - ly TANK.)

 

therefore, the return or not of Lamont will be the INDICATOR for RE.

 

Philly rules.

 

 

Second, well, jick, how does the Secret jickiss doolar-gold Indicator look now???????

 

tanks for asking: the indicator is now hanging. in other words, this Indicator is just as annoying as watching Mr. Vick petting a Bee-jon-Freeze. Cool, and HooHa, too! Passing on to the chart is now advised.

 

and, your jickiss has MARKED the key key line for your future illumination.

 

jickiss!!!!!!!

I jammed with the violinist from String Cheese before that band formed. This would have been back in ~1990, in the closing days of my college band at Bezerkeley. His last name Kang, I think. First name escapes me right now. He was a superb technical player at the time.

 

He became famous and a rock & roll star.

 

Us? Not so much....

They used to come to Vancouver and Whistler. Great plinkin and pickin...they did the last show at the Boot Pub in Whistler before it was torn down.

 

I hear the Warfield is slated for demolition. Sad news, but from what I recall it was in pretty bad shape. The Orpheum was saved in Vancouver and completely restored during the recession in the 1980's, but, as the home of the VSO they had the benefits of the glitzy money crowd. It still took forever, it seemed.

 

What's up with Market Street these days? Is the Warfield scheme some kind of urban renewal plan?

This explains some of last nights festival no show experience,,,this is what happens when you gut your manufacturing base and your economy is dependent upon sheep spending their arse off and piling up debt...Apple just became a short target for next week after their "Gadget Festival" is over and all the County Fair cow auction price target competitions are over....

We moved last week to a new rental and the cable guy came by yesterday to rig up a landline for us, because cell coverage here is spotty. I asked the guy, "So, you taking a 3-day weekend?" He says, "Nope. Working every day this weekend." I says, "I'm the same way - if there's work available, I'm working." He says, "Yup - lotta people not working. If there's work, you work." It's interesting - I think in years past, such a conversation would have focused on stuff away from work. Now, the new zeitgeist has people celebrating work and working, which ain't a bad thing.

 

A propos of nothing more than a purty picture, our new place has, umm, a nice view. Here it is, and if you squint, you can see in it the Golden Gate bridge, downtown San Francisco, Alcatraz, Angel Island, Marin, Treasure Island.

The stock market is a sideshow. The Treasury market must be saved at all costs. The stock market will be sacrificed when the time comes, and it is coming. 4th quarter. Mark your calendars.

I am not a gold fan, nor am I a gold hater

 

Just another thing to trade IMO....albeit, I'd prefer to stick with the miner 49er's for exposure to the sector

 

I see a lot of "analysis" similar to the excerpt below.....WTF?!?!? Are you kidding me? I don't think I would have just let the $100 sit in a box for 79 years. Even at 5% annually, it would have compounded to roughly $4,700.

 

Not trying to start any sort of debate here ;) .....but holy crap, the gold and silver bugs are running about swinging their Johnson's this weekend on every board & blog I follow.

 

Paper money, we all know, is a terrible store of value. The U.S. Dollar has been losing value rapidly ever since we severed our link to a true Gold standard. Let me give you an example of the difference between Gold and paper money over the long haul. Let's say you had $100 worth of U.S. paper Dollars in 1930 and $100 worth of Gold at 1930 prices (Gold was fixed at $20.67/ounce back then by the government). Today, you would still have $100 in nominal U.S. Dollars, but it would buy much, much less in actual goods than it did in 1930. The Gold, however, could be traded in for slightly more than $4800 U.S. Dollars today (as of Friday's closing spot price for Gold).

* TAXES.

 

Taxes are due on the sale of any "asset" sold at a profit....assuming you follow the law. Cars, boats, houses, stocks, bonds, baseball card collections, and gold.

 

So, if the comment was in reference to annual taxes, then "true dat" if it was in something that paid interest annually outside of tax protection.

 

So to that, I say "Roth IRA."

Natural gas, Zapata George in an interview said...

 

shale gas wells cost $10 million to find and produce

results in a price for gas of $7 per 1000 cubic feet

he says these new type of gas wells only last about a year

 

interesting as US gas is under $3 at the moment

 

although in the FT they say producers are well hedged, so low prices could continue until they don't ?
