Thread now trash, don't waste your time - Invest in Canada jokes, a growing commodity!

No its actually real. Irish for pound. Because we're Irish and not retarded.
If you call the pound a punt, what do you call the cent?
-
A pooch?
-
pennies! Back then they were a real domination and you could actually buy penny sweets. We'd call them pingins. Cheap cider used to be called kinters. You use to say "I'd punt for a kinter and a pingin on the side". Sometimes there would be a sale and then you would say "twin kinters and two pingins for the flinters".

Except that the Saudis don't need to keep prices low forever. They just need to keep prices low while the competing capital stock is operating, and can raise them (if they want) when the capital stock isn't. That's why I said that their inventories are an American style put option.
They only have to bankrupt companies one at a time to keep new firms from entering the market.
-
The Saudis cannot keep prices low enough forever.
They don't need to. A few decades would be long enough.
The low oil price is not just due to the Saudis. It's really due to the slack economy in Europe and China, the fact that masses of new production has come onstream, and the fact that the Saudis (and the Russians) need lots of money right now to fund other things (e.g., keeping their domestic situations as under control as possible) and so beggaring everyone else is the best immediate option they see. If they didn't need the cash so much, they'd reduce production to let the price ride higher (and generate more profits for themselves long-term). But without the slack demand, the price would have been high anyway.
You're seeing the same effect with mining companies. Right now is not the time to invest in mining. Nor even the greatest time for owning bonds issued by miners…

And it's a good thing, because of course they won't be able to. I believe they need to keep the oil price over...$70/bbl?...to maintain a profitable state, given their spending.

Awww, did you pee in your cereal bowl instead of the toilet this morning?

OK WELL day one of the new year investing did not go well.

I'm Canadian, so yes. We all own everything, commune style.

Shoulda bought BlackBerry stocks...

This is the first post ever that has actually made me think of Grandpa Simpson's rant about belt onions.

They're down too, but surprisingly less down than almost every other stock. MAYBE YOUR ADVICE IS GENIUS!

Every Canadian stock is down the first week of January. We're still thawing out the TSX from it's multi-day shutdown. Buildings freeze pretty solid when the heat's off for more than 24 hours in the arctic Toronto climate.
Give it a couple weeks. Once the Inuit start trading whale blubber for the latest model of BlackBerry, the stocks will rise a bit.

I thought that the TSX was a stock exchange, I never knew it referred to a multi-day shutdown.

We do once a year, during The One Day The Sun Is Up In Canada. (there's an Intuit word for that that's much shorter, but can't be typed, even in Unicode). On that day, if a Canadian sees his shadow, it's 12 more months of winter. (if he doesn't see his shadow, it's 12 more months of winter).

Goddamned, shut up.

It's not my fault you're asking for investment tips in my Canadians thread.

Remember when you derailed a Linux topic with booze discussion?
Like I've said 437 BILLION TIMES but retards like you can NEVER get into your tiny-ass retarded brains, I do not care about off-topic.
PLEASE ABSORB THIS INFORMATION INTO YOUR TINY LITTLE 3 BRAIN CELLS SO I CAN STOP REPEATING IT thank you.

Then what got you rankled this time then? Can we have a list of those things?

I dunno, maybe the 57 shitty Canada jokes in a row? You could just fucking scroll up and look.
Look, yesterday there were a couple Canada jokes. Oh yay. We're laughing about Canada. Whee.
This morning I wake up, and what's in the thread? Like 30 more of them. 30! Imagine this thread was a guy at a party telling jokes, ok? After what joke would you have left to go find someone else to talk to? The fourth one? Maybe the sixth or seventh to be generous. But the guy doesn't get the hint. He just keeps telling the Canada jokes. Forever.
That's what reading this forum is like. Nobody wants the forum to be a constant string of really stupid unfunny shit.
Except I don't want to walk away to refill my beer, because it's my party. So I'm telling the people telling the constant stream of lame jokes to fuck off instead.
Clear?

That's fucking fighting words.

Except for when you rant about your threads being cluttered.

It's not my fault. It's because of the shitty exchange rate. I need to tell dozens of Canada jokes just to equal one America joke.

This is gibberish.
I've never ranted about my thread being "cluttered." I'm not even sure what it means for a thread on a discussion forum to be "cluttered".
-

If you think I'm going to play your game of going back and figuring out whatever word you used instead of cluttered, you are sorely mistaken. You piss and moan when people get off topic or whatever it is in your threads and you know what I mean, you troll.

This demand reminds me of the scene where Death asks from his library for a list of all the dangerous animals in FourEcks. When you ask this library for information, it simply teleports the fitting book in front of you.
After his butler dug him out under the mountain of books (labelled like: "Animal Compendium Letters Ba-Be, Part 3"), Death then asked for a lost of all the non-dangerous animals in FourEcks.
And received a pamphlet stating: "Some of the sheep."
In that regard, maybe you should ask for a lis of things which do not rankle him.
