6 NOV 2010, Saturday (Odds and Ends)

  • We voters are watching you....Don't screw it up, knuckleheads!!!
  • On a separate note...
  • Interesting historical graphic on the Dow Jones Industrial Average below.  
  • Too few examples to draw any real conclusions but let's look at what it suggests...
  • War, Consumer Price Index increases (inflation), war ends, post-war recession, CPI slows or reverses. stocks soar.
  • Or, the alternative view...wars cause inflation and long sideways stock performance.  So, avoid war when possible.
  • Correlation or causation?
  • Next question...are we really able to sustain a possible double of the CPI as has occurred in the past?

  • Interesting national property tax comparison below.
  • Historical recession length comparisons below.

  • Ethanol....or the many reasons why burning America's food supply (corn) is stupid!
