As Dr. Leisa advised in response to your previous post, it might be pneumonia. She was spot on.

I've learned always to pay attention to Leisa. She's one smart lady.

Take care and get well soon.

I can really relate as I had a bout of pneumonia a few years ago...felt like trying to breathe through a pin hole. When I finally went to the "doc", my blood/oxygen level was less than half of normal. Its nasty when you get it and it takes a LOT out of you...total recovery time/getting back to feeling normal in my case was months. ALL THE BEST!

Bill,

If I don't hear from your until you get well, however long that might take (hopefully not too long), it is fine by me. Get well soon, Fox. We all need you.

feel better bill!

Hope you get well soon Bill.

Bill,

Hope that pneumonia bout is nothing. The fox is smarter and stronger.

Get well soon!

NYUgrad:

When I read or hear of an outrageoues comment from any source, I used the phrase:"I need a bucket" or "Please find me a bucket" knowing the foul contents of my guts will soon be displaced therein.

Your frustration in the future will always resonate with me if those words are used.

I am fed up as well and after watching the interview tonight on the PBS 'News Hour' by Jim of Bush .. I can truely say:
"I need a bucket."

Yes, we appreciate the wisdom you provide, Bill. Take good care -- health is more important than money. Look out for #1 please.

Get well soon, hopefully your health will improve with the weather.

Bill, I wrote to you last week That I had gotten pneumonia, a few months ago. Put a case of water bottles by your bed each time you wake up drink. It's going to take time to get the strength back, but love will get you up each day, God be with you.

Take care and good luck.
Get well soon.

Get well soon, Bill.

Get well, my friend. Leave markets, gold and the like to us lesser mortals for awhile.

(Note: Once, when Bill needed to be absent for an extended period, a group of "regulars" took up the baton, posed questions, posted articles, made observations with links, etc, to carry the blog through that time. We ended up with a great back and forth that took us into the hundreds of posts.)

So, in that vein, the bull in bear's clothing John Hussman, on what these historical market conditions have portended:

And a reminder as to why some people come here, Bill's two most famous "calls" (not prognostications!):

Gold to Recover Tomorrow

Oils to Recover Tomorrow

Enjoy.

For those looking for some audio commentary on the market, I'll recommend Garyk.com (Gary Kaultbaum). You can listen to his radio program live from 6 - 7 p.m EST (weekdays) OR (and even better you can skip the commercials) listen to his recorded broadcast which you can access from the site.

Like Bill, he's an honest commentator who cares about equipping you to swim in the shark infested waters known as the market. Gary is a market technician.

Bill,
I hope you feel better real soon.

Is it just me or does APPL look like a ripe short here? Anyone else looking to exploit the iphoria?

To follow up on something I mentioned back on Jan. 11th of this year regarding oil and gold:

The current H&S short term top in gold projects down to $575. The last H&S bottom played out perfectly, which BTW was explained in depth by commenter g034 back on Oct.31, 2006.

Oil and gold tend to move in tandem so continued weakness is quite possible.

To those of us who own SLW this was posted on Briefing.com this morning-Silver Wheaton to acquire 13% interest in strategic Nevada resources (9.58 )

Co announces it has agreed to acquire, by way of private placement, 3,300,000 units of Strategic Nevada Resources at a price of C$0.75 per unit for a total purchase price of C$2,475,000. Each unit will be comprised of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant entitles Silver Wheaton to purchase one additional common share of Strategic Nevada at a price of C$1.25 for a period of 18 months from the date of issuance. The proceeds of the offering are primarily intended for use on exploration and rehabilitation of Strategic Nevada's recently acquired Crescent Mine near Kellogg, Idaho. As a result of this transaction, Silver Wheaton will own 12.6% of the outstanding shares of Strategic Nevada on an undiluted basis, and 17.8% after giving effect to the exercise of the warrants held by Silver Wheaton.
Get well soon Bill.

Bill,
Get well soon & take care. You will be strong again.

Good vibes coming to you from around the world gotta have some strong positive effect, Bill. Forget your flock for a while and think of yourself as a wounded warrior, who'll be needed back on the front lines ere long. The Bahama sunshine will be happy to wait for you.

Hey Bill,

I am your new reader, Get well soon as "Arseni Starodoumov" said "The fox is smarter and stronger."
