Financial Widgets And The Crash

June10th. Just a normal day. Everything was in place to upgrade FW to 2.8……… Crash!

Now I’ve never said that I was a computer genius. I’m just a user. Financial Widgets is in the mists of a rebuild. It will take time but it will be bigger and better because of this set-back.

In the meantime, feel free to come over and register for e-mail updates. They currently aren’t happening very quick because I’ve actually been doing some manual labor. I’ve been doing a partial rehab on a small house in rural Iowa. Imagine that.

My latest post had nothing to do with the markets per se. It was a “Fun” post. Feel free to check it out.

It is not very often that I get a chance write such an article that is so close to my heart but I wrote one for “Financial Widgets“, a new blog of mine, that incorporated a ideas I learned in high school English.  It was easier to write than I thought it was going to be.  I’ve written a few articles for “A Mind’s Diet” that were as, well…  unusual.  If you’ve been following this blog then you might find this one interesting.  

The story begins in a restaurant with a chance meeting of a previous acquaintance which illustrates that not all stock traders are soulless bastards who only have their own greed in mind.  Some of America’s greatest minds still work in the industry and are still successful.

I urge you to pop over and read this story, not for any other reason other than the enjoyment of reading something not simplified to a point where the English language is uninspired and dull.

Recession: Our Cruise Has Now Ended

Ah! The Recession – Our Cruise Ship Now

For my readers that have been following my recession series, here is one more for you.  And if you have been following it you can start here.

Our Cruise Has Now Ended

Our cruise has now ended.  Please be careful while exiting the ship.  For those that need help, there are stewards near every evacuation station, and if not, will be there shortly.  Please be patient.

It’s seems that our cruise ship has solidly hit the bottom, ground to a slow progression and, then, finally hit the rocks.   That’s where we find ourselves today.  The Dow at 8852, the S&P under 1000, and the Nasdaq somewhere  near the 1700 mark.  Read more »
