  • New Year's Predictions

    Time to make your 2008 predictions, most of which will bear no resemblance to what takes place. F.e., my 2007 prediction was Dow 8,000.

    So for 2008, my prediction is...

    Dow 9,000 (i.e., a ~ 30% drop)
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

    GOOG overtakes MSFT in market capitalization, announces free wireless internet for everyone in the US, and purchases the frequencies to make it happen.

      Solar panels will become a lot cheaper.

          I agree! In fact, they will no longer need to be panels.

          The U.S. economy, hit first by the end of the mortgage bubble to be followed soon by the end of the personal credit bubble, will go into a recession.

              Happy Medvedev becomes the president.
              Happy Putin doesn't become the prime minister.

                    I will rule even more. Is it possible? Not really, that's why it is dangerous, because it is as if world / 0.

                        You don't want to see Angry Putin in action.

                          That's already in the news...

                              My flat will be worth less than I paid for it.

                              Also, Derby County will be relegated.
