Another great video from The Onion:
In The Know: Should The Government Stop Dumping Money Into A Giant Hole?
Heroic compilation of Peter Schiff:
I still think he is a badass and refer you to my interview with him this past spring. Check out his site daily.
Other recommendations:
- Clusterstock – fantastic coverage with spot-on commentary from John Carney. Joe Wiesenthal has some interesting things to say as well (he does stuff with TechDirt and the Stalwart) and even Henry Blodget lays down the ‘bows from time to time.
- DealBreaker – Bess Levine is very witty. Make her a writer for Colbert or maybe her own segment on Wall Strip. Good stuff.
- Bloomberg Breaking News – best micro news bar none. Plus they have the balls to heroically sue the Fed for disclosure of $2 trillion in loans.
Independent analysts:
- Bob Murphy
- Robert Wenzel
- David Shvartsman
- Paul Kedrosky

That Peter Schiff compilation is WONDERFUL! I was laughing and almost clapping right here in my chair. The best part was not Schiff’s perfect predictions but everyone’s derisive dismissal of his doom-and-gloom predictions.

Of all the “picks” given in the Schiff video: GLD is the winner, only losing about 10%!
Ben Stein is a fool, and if you listened to him or any of the other FoxNews Bullies (forcing cackling laughter over another guest, berating someone because they think the market was overpriced, and a grunt of disdain – classy) you’d have lost anywhere from 40-100% of your investment.
Buy Merrill Lynch at 100 – its now at 13.
Buy Goldman Sachs at 130 – down to 70.
Buy WaMu at 13. I can’t seem to find a quote for that…
But laugh at Schiff. What a world we live in.
