The gov't was denied further borrowing and the U.S. debt ceiling has been reached. Our congressional reps now have to choose between running the country correctly and stop giving handouts to all those people who financed their campaigns or... let the situation get worse.

My money's on getting worse. Dow drops below $10k before the end of the year.

A hundo says it doesn't.

I'll bet under $10,500 for a hundo.

Repugnant Abomination · 05-18-2011, 12:18 AM

Didn't take you long to back peddle.

Orgazmo · 05-18-2011, 12:30 AM

About 23 minutes by my watch.

DJ FC · 05-18-2011, 04:44 AM

I sold everything too.

Don't believe in this market.

I'll do that for $100 and will do more if you or anybody else wants.

Terms are that the Dow never trades below 10,500 before end of 2011.

Edit: Please confirm that this is done.

A fool is the only person who ridicules a hustler.

Mr. Blonde · 05-18-2011, 07:07 PM

Seriously Repug. Stop ridiculing hustlers.

ninjaface · 05-18-2011, 08:21 PM

So I opened an ING share builder account. My foray into investing begins.

Ok, I put that in my calendar to remind me.

Care to do more than $100 to make it interesting? December is a long way away...

f3lix · 05-19-2011, 10:14 AM

Though the hundo will be worth far less in December, no.

I wouldn't buy any stock right now if you have:

Credit card debt
Really any kind of debt with more than ~5% interest
Any personal investment ideas (for example: putting a new roof on your house or buying an ice cream truck).

Invest in yourself before investing in stocks.

And thus ends my foray into investing. Think of all the people I could have impressed by telling them I do some trading on the market. Oh well. It was an adventure while it lasted.

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 05-20-2011, 02:49 AM

Now at least say you can say you used to play the stock market.

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 05-20-2011, 04:43 AM

lol djfc you've been hustled and you don't even know it yet, bro!

DJ FC · 05-24-2011, 06:25 PM

Hmmmm..

God damnit :-(

f3lix · 05-24-2011, 09:40 PM

How's the past few days treated you, FC? :-)

DJ FC · 05-25-2011, 01:39 AM

Not well.

Next time I'm in the office I'll check the implied probability again.

f3lix · 06-02-2011, 12:04 AM

I've noticed FC posts a lot less when the financial markets spiral downward.

Feel free to stop drinking and post your financial market thoughts, FC.

DJ FC · 06-02-2011, 07:18 AM

I think Europe is screwed up.

I bought a bunch of puts on the Eurostoxx index.

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
