So for the last few weeks everywhere I turn I am hearing that we will not have to worry about inflation for quite awhile.  I have heard from some pundits that we are looking at a couple of years before we need to worry.  Still others believe that the FED will be able to take away the punch bowl in time to stop inflation from taking off.  I just do not believe that will happen.  I think the FED will be behind the curve as it always seems to be.  They will not risk rais ...

Wow, what a ride.  I don't know how many of you actually trade in the marktets but if you do you know how crazy it truly is out there.  I guess that is why I am an amateur.  With everything going on you would think logically the markets should be crashing.  It think it was Jesse Livermore who said the market can remain irrational longer than you can stay solvent.  Someone correct me if I am wrong please.  That rings true.  My $.02 is to "stay small" at least ...
