Investing and Trading: We Can't Predict the Future (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac)

My Daily Blog is at: http://investorandtrader.blogspot.com/

It's funny. As the bailout was announced, I'm thinking: AHHH CRAP! Because I understand the economics of the situation.

But that doesn't mean anything when it comes to my actual holdings.

Another thing I might add is that what if they didn't bail out Freddie and Fannie? If they allowed them to fail what would happen to the markets not only in America but all over the world, as many other nations hold assets belonging to both of these huge giants. The Stock Market wouldn't even open the next day. Go look at what is happening with Lehman brothers, and Wachovia now. They are getting hammered. What are they going to do bail them all out? That will definitely cause hyper inflation!

This is what psychologists point to and talk about. Instead of looking at all the facts available to you, ALL of the facts and forming your conclusion? Instead of looking to more facts than agree with your bias? You have to find others that support your opinion because you don't even know HOW to analyze all of the data.

In fact, this is horrible news - in that now the U.S. has started in earnest becoming a socialistic economy. That's worse news than anything else.

The USD will see 100 on the index again. That simple. Look at it, just as I stated we were going to see 80 again on the index? We just hit 80. We're GOING to see 100 on the index eventually.

hey it's me again. This is the new 1929. When are you going to accept the fact this is going to turn into a Depression?

[AirelonTrading]

You're 25 years old for crying out loud. TWENTY FIVE years old.

When are you going to accept the fact that you've never, ever seen a real recession. Ever. We're still not HALF as bad as the numbers we saw in 1981 to 1982 - and it's been 9 months. Not by HALF. We still have twice as bad to get, even to get to that stage

You can't be in a depression, BUY and HOLD stocks as I have (not buy and selling, but buying and holding) - and be up 20% on your money, in a bear market that is DOWN 20%

In the SAvings and Loan Crisis the rate of foreclosures on homes was 1 in 129, it's 1 in 10 today in 2008. So many banks have failed, and this is totally different than the last recession at the end of the 70's into the 80's because we didn't have giant corporation banks like we do now. Fannie and Freddie were the biggest bailout Ever in American history. The Dollar is going to be worthless soon. What will it take before you realize this situation is worse even than 1929? Who cares how old I am

[AirelonTrading]

You can't have hyper-inflation, when the dollar has made greater one day gains than it has in the last 36 years. It's erased ALL losses of the last year.

We didn't have giant corporations in the 1970's?

ARE YOU INSANE? What do you call GM? What do you call Ford? What do you call GE and Chrysler?

Get an education, and try again. Your age matters, because you're talking about subjects that you do not have a CLUE about.

[markymarkuss777]

There weren't as many big brokerage firms like there is now. Do you honestly seriously think the dollar is going to keep going up after they bailed out Freddie and Fannie? YOu of all people should know the dollar is DONE. Go watch Visionvictory, or Manoftruth's videos. Since all you seem to care about is AGE, go watch what they are saying. They are somewhat older than I am. A lot of people are saying what I'm saying.

I need people to understand that I'm not singling anyone out with the following video. I had just watched one of Jefferson Krull's videos, and was sort of 'fired up' :) If I am singling anyone out? It's the num-nuts that came out to my blog, pulled the 33% number, and then tried to insinuate on SIX trades that I am a sloppy trader; although I'm up 5% on $950.00.

Regardless, it is an important point.

We cant predict the future. Just find a good risk / reward ratio. Find an edge. Play with that
