Last week of the quarter

This market is bad very bad.There are only a few small places to have your money. We will see continued high gas prices, food prices, and inflation.

There are a few ways to look at this. You could see it as a bad thing. Or, you could see it as opportunity. You see, in life, trends always go much further and last longer than everyone thinks. Look at housing recently. Way way up, and then way way down. Look at the NASDAQ bubble before that. Look at gold from $250/oz to $1000/oz. Typically, things don't change until thinks peak out, or bottom out. Not in the markets, but with everything. Even social issues. Everything goes to the brink and back again.

Such as it's going to be with government, the education system, everything. Things won't really change, until citizens start taking part in the running of society again. PTA's with re-form. Political rallies will be common place events. Things won't really change until citizens stop living in a fantasy world of entitlement.

Things may get worse before they get better. Dow 10,000? Maybe. More 'socialism for the rich' bailouts? Maybe. Bank Nationalization? Maybe. C'mon don't laugh. It happened in England with Northern Rock, and both the Bank of England and Federal Reserve are private banks owned in part by the Rothschilds, Morgans, Rockefellers, etc.

This is my socio-economic point of view of the world. Until everyone knows what money is, the "business cycle" will continually be up and down and up and down making people rich or poor over and over. Once a gold standard is back, income tax will be gone and so will inflation and the business cycle.
