<< But if Tat is right that Homer is really Garbo >>

Tatnic is correct.

Well...That's good enough for me...I may not always agree with you Dave...But in my book you are a Straight Forward Stand Up Kinda Guy...So there you have it...If I was in charge... This Homer Sucker would be banned...But I'm not in charge...But please be careful ...Best to All...Doug(IIC)

As there is no reason to suppose that Homer is actually receiving the requests he claims to receive, I don't see he's really doing a lot of damage. I even rather like his oracular style. But perhaps my taste is a bit perverted.

Interesting word choice, Karel. Your use of English is superior to that of most people in English-speaking countries.

Rob,
When you carry a Winchester around with you all the time, you don't need to speak perfect English.

Homer's friend George S. is quoted in the latest SFO magazine as having said "you cannot be enough of a pig when you are right". What the hell does that mean unless it is said in hindsight ? He could also have said "pigs get slaughtered except for when they don't" . Or "you're a pig if you hold a gain too long and it turns on a dime". How about " you're not a pig if you take a huge profit but sell too soon" . There's a quote for every investment result , but unfortunately , they're all made after the fact.

Now and then they will throw in an occasional:"Strike while the iron is hot" or "Haste makes waste" just to make sure they cover all the bases.

Cover your shorts before the end of the month if not sooner. Ridiculous? I don't think so. Stay tuned.

As I am sure you all are aware that the Fed decision will be on the 28th and not the 29th as I have been posting. Sorry for the goof. That said, nothing has changed: 1/2 pt and pause. Ten trading days after today. Stay tuned for any change.

gomer...erh I mean homer does at times get it right, in his own convoluted way. I agree with him that the Market is hoping like hell for 1/2 point and then a pause (that may be the only thing keeping this market up). Hard to believe this will be bullish since it will invert the yield curve violently, but it just goes to show how hopeful equity investors are....too hopeful IMO. A more probable scenario is that the FED will totally overdo it by raising 1/2 pt. and not saying anything about pausing. If that happens...oh boy.

I think it will be 25 basis points...However, I'd like to see them throw everybody a curveball and go 37.5 basis points...Doug(IIC)

Invitation....

I would like to extend an invitation to Homer and Tatnic to join the other 30 or so $$$Mr. Market$$$ member players who participate in the POTW each week.

You fellas can find details on BillyJoe's POTW (Portfolio of the week) thread.... Rockin'Rob is the scorekeeper and a link to the current rules can be found at the bottom of any of his posts. We all look forward to your HUUUUGE!!!! stock picks....Long or Short....

[Rob]

Lye, maybe Homer can get George Soros to play the POTW. It would be fun to whup up on a billionaire.

[Lyehopper]

To &quot;we&quot; or not to &quot;we&quot;....

Lye, maybe Homer can get George Soros to play the POTW. It would be fun to whup up on a billionaire.

SsSsSsSsss....I agree!

Ok a correction and definition of "we"....

I stated that 'we" looked forward to Homer's HUUUUGE stock picks. After receiving a PM from one of my favorite members who really can't stand Homer.... I must clarify..... "We" will be defined in the aforementioned post as any member that actually does look forward to Homer's stock picks. Those whom do not look forward to Homers picks shall not be considered as the collective "we" in this particular instance....

jejeje!

I don't why everyone thinks he was talking about George Soros?...The first thing that came to mind when I saw George S is George Smith the guy who mysteriously disappeared off the RCCL cruiseship last summer. They never did find him and although I don't have any proof...I had a dream that he may be working for a hedge fund in Istanbul.

The second name that came to mind was George Smith... that plumber up in Prince Edward Island...I heard he's a pretty good stockpicker...

I'd say it's a toss up.
