      10 Top Dividend Stocks of the S&P 500
      As those high yielding stocks get into more and more trouble those dividends are sure to be cut. Its either that or those companies will go bankrupt. What's the point of a 30% dividend if you lose 100% of your investment?

      How Far Could Oil Prices Fall?
      The bottom line is that oil could do anything and nobody knows how far it could fall. If one wishes to profit from oil its best to just go with the flow (and not guess at what it will do) and follow the stats...

      Risky Waters, But Opportune Waves
      Also there are plenty of money making opportunities in bear markets (shorting financials and automakers, buying gold and oil) too so no need to focus only on "sidestepping losses" during bear markets.

      Not really. It seems to be way too loss-averse though. I don't think that the goal should be to "sidestep" losses in bear markets or in any markets. I think the goal should be to minimize losses but never try to completely avoid them. Losses are a normal and natural part of good trading.

      yogatrader, we could ask you the same question. Why are you telling us you trade against Black-Scholes? Why not just continue trading quietly? Why does warren buffett talk about how he trades?

      Yeah, and also James Simons at Renaissance Technologies who manages oh about $30 billion uses technicals and statistics and has a long term track record of 38%+ annual return (and thats after 40%+ fees!!).

      A funny thing about Buffett, his number one rule when buying companies is that they have to have long and stable operating histories. Well companies with long and stable operating histories have long and stable price trends. Stocks with long and stable price trends have good technicals. So in reality is he is buying stocks with good long-term technicals.

      High Likelihood of a Market Crash
      Markets rarely crash when everyone thinks they will. I can't believe all the negativity Im reading about the market nowdays. To me thats a bullish indicator. Either way, its doesn't matter. One of the keys to making money is to assume the market can crash at anytime and set yourself up so that your risk is minimized if it does crash.

      No indicator, fundamental or technical, works on all stocks at all times. It makes no sense at all to say that technical analysis "doesn't work". If it truely didn't work then you could simply reverse the signals and buy when it says sell and sell when it says buy, then it "would work" right? The key to making technical analysis (or any analysis) "work" is to use statistics. You have to backtest the signals on historical data and see which indicators work best for which stocks.
