Sebastian Mallaby - Crazy Like A Financial Market - washingtonpost.com

OpinionJournal - Credit Correction

  • The question is whether this is a forecast or merely a correction. As evidence
    of the latter, we'd point to Mr. Greenspan, whose Monday remarks seem to have
    been over-interpreted as a recession prediction.

27 Principles of Negotiating

    • Basics to Keep in Mind

      <!--begin paragraph-->




      1. If you ask for something before a contract is signed, it's called
        “negotiating.” If you ask for something after a contract is signed, it's called
        “begging.” It's better to be a good negotiator than an expert beggar.



      2. From negotiator Chester Karras: “You don't get what you deserve, you get what
        you negotiate.”



      3. From motivational expert Zig Ziglar: “You can get anything in life, if you
        help enough other people get what they want.”



      4. Everything is negotiable, but everything has a price.



      5. Quoted prices are invitations to buy, but not statements of
        value.

    recession (often defined as two consecutive quarters of a shrinking economy).
  • Is it possible that we’re headed for a real recession?

  • a correction is likely - ashleystar on 2007-02-28

    States Treasury     prices soared, and yields fell, as some investors sought
    safety.
  • The sell-off left almost every major stock lower, including all 30 stocks in the
    Dow industrials and all but two in the S.& P. 500 and one in the Nasdaq 100.
