Black Monday- Large Market Declines

[stevenash]

Just wondering if this will be the fault of George Bush?

[EnlightenedMessiah]

Come on Stevey I thought you were supposed to be some super sophisticated mutual fund picker 

[stevenash]

Can you point me to a post where I made that remark or is this just another something you have made up?   ( You know, sort of like "i manage billions of investment dollars)

bullets13 already confirmed my job title and the amount of assets I manage. Do we really need to go over this again?

Someone will come up with a way to blame it on him.  Hell,  the deaths attributed to Hurricane Katrina was blamed on him.  Never mind the fact the incompetent mayor of NOLA,  let 100's of school buses flood when they could have been used for evacuations.  Just to easy to blame Bush.

Obama would had never been elected had Bush not screwed up so bad

So you saying what happened in NOLA was Bush's fault?

[BLUEDOVE3]

Nah, just easy to blame him for his non-actions.

Bullets13 is a great guy but he does not understand this business in depth.  The word "manage" can mean many different things.  From my perspective, unless you are personally calling the buy/sell Shots ( which you aren't) you are not "managing".  And, by the way, as much as you like to belittle mutual funds, when one aggregates all of the assets such as those of the S. Foundation, it essentially is a mutual fund with multi managers.

Nagin's non-actions worse than Bush's when it comes to Katrina.

[EnlightenedMessiah]

He doesn't need to. You wanted proof of my occupation and assets under management. I provided that.

Now you're over here pretty much calling him stupid.

NOpe, not calling him stupid.  Have known Bullets for a very long time.  But I am calling someone duplicitous.

You're in denial lol

I even sent him an email from my work email, which links me to everything on my company's website, my own biography section, LinkedIn profile, etc 

[stevenash]

None of which makes you an actual portfolio manager.

[new tobie]

It was'nt his fault, he just didn't give a ..............

[stevenash]

It was'nt his fault, he just didn't give a ..............

Apparently Nagin didnt either, right?

[BS Wildcats]

It was'nt his fault, he just didn't give a ..............

More on Nagin than on Bush

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

The whole Katrina situation was a cluster-you-know-what with enough blame to go around for everyone involved. Period. 

[CraigS]

I agree! Plenty of blame to go around. Whereas Biloxi and Gulfport were near total destruction, N.O. was limited to nearly one neighborhood (besides the fact the residents of said neighborhood got outside the hood and destroyed other places) You hardly heard or saw anything other than NO....why...because the IDIOTS didn't/wouldn't leave...who's to blame....the fools that stayed and cause even further destruction to a city way beyond that of flood waters...and yes, there were plenty of them....so yes, many are to blame.

[77]

Saddest thing about NO was that the people were to stupid to heed the warnings. You live below sea level and a giant storm is coming DUH! Maybe some  looked at it as an opportunity to get some nice new things if they stayed behind! 

[Hagar]

Well, getting back to the market debacle, I'm beginning to think someone wants me to retire broke.  Who do I blame?   Doolittle bomb the wrong country?  Naw, that's not it.  Let's see, corporate downsizing cost me job of 32 yrs when Clinton was POTUS.  Hmm Dem.   Now I'm losing my retirement money and Obama POTUS.  Hmmm Dem.  I don't think then there Dems like me!

Hope they don't take it out on you guys by association.

Which corporation downsized during the Clinton years?  They were good years for businesses.  You might have a me problem.

[Hagar]

No, not a me problem.  And I wasn't the only one. About 35 to 40 along the Gulf Coast.  Stk was at $35 when they took over the plants. After two years it Got down to $7.  Cest la vie. 

Perhaps you are a Democrat and wanted to take a cheap shot at someone who had his life turned upside down to bolster your political beliefs?  Is that the case?   

IF that's the case, you have a lot more me problem than I have.  Matter of fact, I got hired by a very large company at 55 yrs old, so no, no me problem here.  

[westend1]

Too funny.   You blame your misfortune on Clinton because of your political leanings and then act upset when someone points it out.
