to trade or not to trade?

With the current state of the economy and whats going on around the world would you put money in the market or rather just sit on the sidelines...

Curious to hear your opinions

Jerome MarrowIt is a great time for trading. Terrible time for more traditional 'value investing.'
hope your not referring to commodities, since we are in a "bull market" for it so to speak

You're retarded. Many are simply used safe havens and hedges against the market. That is far from 'value investing.' Value investing =/= simply buying a lot of commodity futures.

 

there is always a bull market somewhere. just a matter of finding it.

looking for that pick-me-up to power through an all-nighter?
 

Just go in and out and hope it won't pop too soon.

People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis, you can't trust people Jeremy
 

If you bought Irish bonds a few weeks back and held them you could have ridden the high yields till the announcement of the bailout and then sold on lower yields and pocketed the difference.

It was a pretty sure bet too.
