The crash will come if China crashes, then all emerging markets will crash along, and Boeing and Intel will can cancelled orders. You guys are looking at the wrong direction.

Re: Where is the CRASH!

This has got to be Bart's absolute least verbose post. < "0" Words + 1 chart > ! OK, it's not a secular chart, but I think we do get the broad hint where the crash has occurred ...

Now did you crib this DOW > GLD idea from Charles Mackay back in 2000, or did he crib it from you, or did you both arrive at it independently? :eek: :confused: :eek:

If I told you where the idea came from, I'd have to **something** you?... :eek: ;)

By the way, you can show a similar "crash" with most hard commodities.

Truthfully I think I ran into the Dow/gold ratio from a site years ago that has now disappeared, but the additions of the CRB, housing, oil ratios (and the CPI+lies vs. M3 & m3) was my idea.

Where's the Finster? [ * A.K.A. - Cerberus' second head? ]









_____________

[ * The two-headed, slavering giant hound guarding the gates of Hades in Greek mythology. Contemporary lore imputes this mythological creature to be the 'bart-finster' gnomon *** ]

[ ** Slav´er`ing - a.1. Drooling; defiling with saliva. ]

[ *** Gnom´on - a.2. Greek word meaning "indicator", "one who discerns," or "that which reveals." ]

Bart -

To be precise Cerberus had three heads - but I haven't figured out what that third head represents (yet).

Bart -

All kidding aside. That is a disingenuous comment on your part. I have not got a clue about economic theory, nor it's many applications. I bob about with little more substance than a cork on the high seas, reading much of the economic commentary on these pages.

I understand a little more about geo-politics, and have a little clarity on what's going to be happening in the energy markets, but that's only because a lot of people here don't have the foggiest idea how truly ugly the thing is about to bust loose in that area.

Just to clarify the point - I have zero illusion of having much of any grasp of everything from hedge funds to central banks, as they are discussed on these pages. It is my fervent wish that I do not mouth off on those topics and make an complete ass out of myself.

The third head on the Cerberus dog is going to have to be something of substance, or we'll just have to dispense with your and Finster's third head altogether. :rolleyes:

I understand a little more about geo-politics, and I think I have a little clarity on what's going to be happening in the energy markets, but that's only because a lot of people here don't have the foggiest idea how truly ugly the thing is which is already beginning to bust loose in that area.

Just to clarify the point - I have zero illusion of having much of any grasp of many of the economic workings - and that's regarding everything - from hedge funds to central banks, as they are discussed on these pages. It is my fervent wish that I do not mouth off on those topics and make an complete ass out of myself.

Lukester, don't worry, I think Bart was just BSing you. Though you are not as dumb as you write you are. We're all dumb, the smartest are the least dumb.
