halfpasthuman says crash may have begun!(10/22/08)

[joe2288]

lol im done arguing people on this thread we are all gonna have

different opinoins about the half past human predictions im sticking with mine

n throwing in the towel on this one

[Selene]

Excuse me: The Dow has already lost 40% of its value in the past year - 2/3 of that in the past 60 days - and now these guys are predicting a crash???

That's just toooo funny.

But the ElliotWave stuff is excellent - I've been a fan for years. It's highly technical, but an open system you can actually learn to use. They've been warning about this stuff for, oh, about 15 years now....

Cheers,

I hope you are not referring to me here. I pinpointed this over a MONTH BEFORE YOUR 60 days started. NOTHING "NOW" about me predicting this crash.

Hi, Merlin -

No, I meant the Half Past Human group. I'd not seen your stuff from last July.

You said (on that link) "My target price for the S&P is around 900 on the 24th of October.." Since the S&P is closing today (the 23rd) around 900 - It was 1,250 when you wrote that - pretty good call, Merlin!

Are you familiar with the work of Christopher Carolan (The Spiral Calendar) http://carolan.org/? He's done some very good research on lunar phases in the market.

All best regards,
Selene

I guess that BOT is correct!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know how there was mention of words such as "Revolution" in the release language.. well this looks like it is starting to appear:

NASSIM NICHOLAS TALEB: I don't know if we're entering the most difficult period since -- not since the Great Depression, since the American Revolution.

Personally, I think Half Past Human has read the Internet wrong.


All the "talking" is about the election and the economy compounded. There wont be some "big event" like they are predicting, the election is the event, and so is the economy.

Time will prove me right.

Actually what I think HPH said was that October 7 would be the beginning of the "release language" portion of the event which will last through next March. They said it could be a small event that would trigger the release and it would spread as time went on. Didn't Iceland go down about that time?

Oh well ... matters not ... economy is yucky and in a spiral ... downward.

Not much I can do except prepare to be self sufficient and eat pie!

P.S. The real failure in predictive pronouncements was the Oct 14th alien ship.

Where are those guys?

Nope. Never heard of him or his work. In fact, I have never studied anyone else's research into the markets mainly because by the time I get to the second paragraph or so, it seems like a lot of hot air to me. In this case, I think that I might like to do a comparison examination of it, but I seriously doubt that I will have the time.

Considering the predictions generated by most people it seems amazing to me that they can get it right once in a while. Of course, if one makes enough FUZZY predictions, sooner or later one will be close enough to be called 'correct.'

And when it comes to specific predictions, getting one right is like finding a diamond buried within Mr Everest.

I don't know enough. Does anyone really think it will get THAT bad?

Peace and prosperity

When the Dow Gold ratio hits 1 perhaps then it will be safe to think about owning paper assets. Money magazine is full of it! In a huge bear market like we have people that have stayed in might need 20 years to get even in real terms! Just think about Japan, wasn't the NIKKEI 39,000 in 1989? What is it now? 8,200?!! Please people stop listening to Wall Streeet or the folks that have gotten this situation wrong month after month after month for stocks and the economy for the last 1 1/2 years! Find yourself a good Austrian economist who have been warning of where we find ourselves today for the past 5 years!
