I get it, this is an investment club..

I'm just an individual. I'm flattered, but I think that ego makes you think you are talking to important people here on PNet. (wink)
Market news is so positive today, my holdings popped out of their little doldrums (just over 4% gain in 6 days). I'm itching to put in a stop loss floor, but think I'm going to wait just a touch more. I think I might see a little waver down and back and don't won't an early sell.

Logan Mohtashami says

Look at me in this light, I will give you the economic data breakdown for when the first level recession flag comes up

Thank you, but it won't help me maximize and protect what I currently hold. I only 'trust' the investment brokers who actually take a cut of the funds they are managing for me. Incentives you know.

Don't gamble with your home, and don't gamble with your retirement funds. It's what your mother would tell you, and she is right.

Strategist says

It's not true. It's not even a myth. It's a bizarre claim I have never heard before.

What rock have you been hiding under? NAFTA, now TPP. Not even Harley is made in the US anymore. Turn over any product in your home and look for the "Made in China" sticker.

However only in the last year or two did China surpass the US, and considering how much the Yuan is manipulated it is dubious that they did surpass the US in manufacturing.

junkmail says

Best to leave him alone he's imagining he has an audience of fools.

This is great idea

A bunch of liberals who can't read economic data properly hiding behind fake names

Compared to a guy if you google his name has tons and I means tons of economic data and actual data mining

It's going to be a honor destroying the extreme left as it has been destroying the extreme right

best part is

You will know who did this to you!

His Name was Logan Mohtashami

A man who only believed in math, facts and data and despises demogoues

This is a war I want... It's time of the extreme left to get the same treatment the extreme right has!

I am here for 20 plus years...

I suggest you guys revise your tone about depression, deflation and any other new normal thesis

Days of lying about economics is done on this site

Think of me as a economic Zoro Not Zero Hedge

Why are you putting a stop loss on an index or anything short term investment you have unless you're channel trading, which is 100% different what we are talking about

I am talking about economic cycles = business cycles , when that ends

This exemplifies your ignorance.
I've been on this site for many years. Back then your user name was automatically extracted from everything before the @ sign in your login email. I don't like rubbish in my email so I have an account called junkmail that I use so online spammers can have their 15 minutes of sunshine. That is where the user name has come from. I was lazy and didn't change it, so it stuck. So it's not 'made-up' and I'm not 'hiding'. You are wrong on both accounts. (Not the first time I'll warrant).

In retrospect, I'm glad I didn't change it to my real name because I don't need freaks like you trolling me on google, between jacking off, while waiting for the phone to ring in your Orange County office.

You might think, wow, been a member on so long and so few comments? That's because I only open my mouth when I have something to say AND because I'm retired at 52. So I don't spend a lot of time on here crossing swords with fools like you who think they can see the future in a graph that depicts the past.

I'm not a liberal, I'm independent, always have been. (Wrong again)

See here Logan... it's this rush to judgement and massive generalizations that make me wonder if you really are a good (woops almost said analyst) Loan Officer who THINKS he's an analyst! Your mind is obviously closed and everything you say and do on this site only proves the point more.

Funnily enough I DID google your name (seeing u asked)
Logan Mohtashami:
Degree: History and Chinese History? Hey Logan... any FORMAL training in Finance?
Frustrated Loan Officer. Has delusions of financial, demigod/analyst.
Suffering from a sever case of narcissism broken only by small periods of massive self promotion. Exhibits the classic symptoms of acute Iranian/Lebanese, middle eastern, male machismo. Talks alot, (mostly to himself) rarely listens. Likes to play with photoshop and insert heads on naked bodies of a younger self. Seriously? Who does that? Have you ever masturbated to your own picture? Odds are great, I could show you a graph of the probabilities. Possibly why there is no Mrs. Logan Mohtashami (apparently) hard to find her on google under mountains of self-promotion.

Becomes crestfallen when not listed at top 35 sexiest financial people in the world (see Logan pop up in the comment section below this really dumb link)
Seriously... who actually googles sexiest people in their profession?

You were a basketball coach up until 2000.
So you stepped into the greatest market housing market EVER on the day it took off.
Well it's no wonder you think you're the shit and everything just keeps getting better. You lack true experience (post 2000) of hard times in your industry.
The fact you have had such success (apart from the character flaws listed above) can be attributed, in a great part, to luck. Yep timing... you got a lot lucky.

There are a lot of really smart people on this site, I have learned a lot from them. I got VERY luck and I'm done working. Perhaps as you grow up (didn't say get older I hope you noticed) you will see there are many opinions here you won't find anywhere else. Most are here because their eyes are open. You may never meet them because of stupid straw man posts like this one where you seem to post the majority of the posts yourself and only lure out the ones you already think are here. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy.

(Just realized that probably sounds pretty good to a narcissist)

(Just realized that probably sounds pretty good to a narcissist)

Keep on talking

This is what I want

I want you guys to search my name like you guys have done today, because I can see it

I am going to destroy your false economic theories Piece by Piece

So everyone reading Patrick.net who doesn't talk will know that the extreme left and right have brought on demogoues economic in to this discussion

Lack discipline

And they hide behind their fake names

Deal with it because it just the start

junkmail says

Yup that's me, living in Irvine CA, own 2 homes in So Cal, Drive a Mercedes all paid off

Why don't you put your real name out here and lets see who you're

Any of you lets see if you have the guts to man up????

Or hide behind your fake names ...

Only Roberto and Gary Anderson have done this... I give them Kudos for it

Bring it ....

junkmail says

You were a basketball coach up until 2000

Yup In 1994 I coached High School Basketball at age 19 up to 2,000

Got into the mortgage business in 1996 age 21

I am not sure you guys actually work here on Patrick.net hence why none of you show up on Linkeden

Remember Piece by Piece

You're deflationary spiral, serf thesis, new normal, all the junk I have heard for the Anti American Bears both from the left and right has failed, badly

all your readers will know who is the only person who actually tracks data for a living!

It's going to be a fun next 20 years!!!

Bait Bait Bait... and you all took it

junkmail says

Possibly why there is no Mrs. Logan Mohtashami (apparently)

Speaking of the Mrs. Married August 26, 2011

Thank you for asking. :-)

junkmail says

(Just realized that probably sounds pretty good to a narcissist)

Thank you so much this post!

Kudos, Bravo, good job sir!

That's what I want to see, some fire out of you guys

Logan Mohtashami says

Logan, you sound just like every other sell side analyst. Really, try to limit your posts to 10 a day. It's looks like spam now.

Run the numbers on how many post I do compared to everyone else, I am on the bottom because I really only post when I write an article Outside of 5 other posts in 3 years

Plus, I have to answer back, look at all the research Junkmail did, he took the bait, come on, I have to give him kudos on that

Logan Mohtashami says

Drive a Mercedes

That would have been a useful piece of info if I hadn't already concluded that you are an idiot.

Here is your horrible U.S. economy you guys bad mouth everyday

Keep it up and make my point all the more clear from your own words

That is what I want everyone to see

Math, Facts and Data matter, the rest is story telling

I can't wait for the boomers to drop dead so we can start the healing process on the shit this ass stupid generation has left behind for the rest. Worst generation of all times. I will buy the Mercedes in auction during the estate sale. Fuckers die already.

HadEnough says

Fuckers die already.

If you look at all data over age 55

It's been a net positive only due to demographics... A lot leave and a lot stay

But they can't work forever

Our kids are going to be fine, those who get educated, Work hard like Bernie Sanders says, and fight... the ones who beg and cry everyday and believe they're entitled to something

Hard Rocky Road ahead

The old can linger for a while but they can't work forever.

#USA

Don't bet against this country

Yup....^ this. Sooner the leeches move on America will be on its way to recovery.

A better long term bad economic thesis that has many data points to turn to

- growing older population isn't ready for retirement

A. Work longer
B. Need help from their children

This can take away disposable income to a degree off the certain consumption items for sure

Clap Clap Clap...

I thank you guys for taking the bait on this...

See, this is last post until the next recession/recovery cycle comes 2019-2022 time frame

Now, you're reduced back to your Anti American talk that most of you talk about every day.... my lord... what happened here...
You would think after posting 1,000 charts here that you would have learned something... but.. no...

You just want to complain for the sake of complaining

See you all once the data line gets positive from the recession lows. that's when the tear down will start .

Follow claims
Follow LEI
Follow over investment thesis on debt
JOLTS data have a 12 month trend negative baseline before the recession

Don't allow the ideology to defeat you!

Fight! Be Strong and Brave and don't allow the darkness to make you think this country is weak

We are the best domestic economy in the world, because our people kick ass and they don't beg, they work!

Now back to your bickering fights!
