Roubini sees a light at the end of the tunnel

[temeculaguy]

Roubini has been my favorite economist for a few years. No expert is correct all the time but Nouriel has stuck to his guns, being called a doom and gloom guy a few years ago and an optimist now, yet his opinion hasn’t really changed, he still feels we are in month 19 of a 24 month recession and the climb out will be slow and unexciting. It’s funny how the guy can say essentially the same thing for years and the adjectives used to describe him change based on the economic backdrop.

Media outlets have focused lately only on his positive statements, like how cnbc does here with some air filled talking heads. http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232?video=1184914198&play=1

Roubini wrote a rebuttal to all the “good news,” placing some caveats behind his statements, explaining that this isn’t new or news, but all in all it appears to support my firm belief that my missing the March 2009 opportunity to go “all in” on the stock market will forever be listed in the regret column of my life’s scorecard.

So how do you see Roubini now? Have you moved on to more bear come latelies in order to hear what you want to. Did you buy too much canned food and ammo? Are you positioned for the possibility that this recession ride might come to an end and tomorrow is not as bad as it seems.

That is the head light of the train of European bank defaults coming straight at us.

You can never have enough ammo. and if you stock canned food that you like to eat, what is the problem. I would welcome some good news, but not so good that we do not vote a bunch of the bums out:
politicians should be treated like babies, they should be changed often.

I went “all in” on the stock market in March 2009 on all my investment dollars (i.e. excluding emergency cash). The fact that the dividend yield was more than the treasury bond yield is too tempting for me to skip it. That said, I have a pessimist’s size of emergency cash. I guess I am trying to position myself against all likely scenarios.
