Book Description

The advent of accurate and continuous equity price histories made possible the study of equity price movement as a function of time, independent of all other variables.

Early studies of such data produced the conclusion that equity prices vary in a random, hence unpredictable, way.

This conclusion has been replaced in the last decade as evidence mounts that equity price variation is ordered and quasi-predictable.

The relationship between past and future prices is found to be complex and nonlinear. Current simplified models represent price movement as consisting of a linear combination of wave functions with specific and consistent interrelationships. This viewpoint has led to the development of the Wave Theory of Price Action.

From this Wave Theory, a body of practical application methods called Cyclic Analysis has been evolved which permits a fully integrated and wholly technical approach to the problem of trading and investing successfully in the stock and commodity markets.

This approach features the following unique capabilities: prediction of price-reversal timing, prediction of the price at an anticipated reversal, estimation of the extent of the price move expected to follow a reversal, and evaluation of a transaction before entry in terms of risk and profit potential.

Cyclic Analysis methodology has been field tested since 1971, and computerized analysis aids are available.

Not telling you how to trade.......2000-08-31

This is a pamphlet that is basically a primer on J.M. Hurst's Cyclic Analysis Trading Program that he did back in the '70's. Whether or not Cyclic Analysis even works, you decide, but I sure would love to find somebody who can make the returns he promised in his book "Profit Magic of Stock Transaction Timing." If you want to learn about Cyclic Analysis, move on, this won't help you. I'd imagine the person who actually makes the returns Hurst suggested would be the richest person in the U.S. in no time at all. Last time I checked, Bill Gates made his money on Microsoft, not on the theory that stocks will make bottoms every 3 months or every 14 days.

Teaser for the whole course.......2000-01-24

This book is a brief introduction to cycles and how they are used in trading. But it does not have info on how cycle lengths are determined; it appears the author uses a computer program. It might stimulate more interest in cycles, but by itself, won't help your trading, in my opinion.

Book Description

Goods are imbued with meanings and uses by their producers. When they are exported, they can act as a means of communication or domination. However, there is no guarantee that the intentions of the producer will be recognized, much less respected, by the consumer from another culture.

Cross-Cultural Consumption is a fascinating guide to the cultural implications of the globalization of a consumer society. The chapters address topics ranging from the clothing of colonial subjects in South Africa and the rise of the "hypermarket" in Argentina, to the presentation of culture in international tourist hotels.

Through their examination of cultural imperialism and cultural appropriation of the representation of "otherness" and identity, Howes and his contributors show how the increasingly global flow of goods and images challenges the very idea of the "cultural border" and creates new spaces for cultural invention.

I love this book!!!! It is so much fun. When my friends come over to play we always look at it. Then we roll around the floor laughing and laughing. Even the same jokes are funny over again.

I practice on my mom to see if she thinks the jokes are funny from "Good Clean Knock-Knock Jokes for Kids." She laughs too. Sometimes she says they are silly. I think they are funny.

Book Description

Since 1970, Dr. Allen Unruh, a chiropractic physician, has been writing and collecting one-liner jokes and quotes. He has been a keen observer of the social scene. This hobby has helped him understand how to use humor to dispel tension and brighten up the day of everyone he meets. He went to Comedian Camp MinneHAHA. Then he went on to school to develop his wit, but attended only half the classes. A half-wit is still better than a dimwit or a nitwit. He believes that even the wisest of men relish in a little nonsense. One-liners and quotations help us get a perspective on life. Often the right one-liner can share a simple but profound truth. When it comes to life's most important lessons, we can all use gentle reminders.

There are some witty observations in this collection. Most of it is pretty basic, which is what most comedy is all about. Here are a couple of examples:

Q. What is the difference between a chess player and a civil servant?
A. A chess player moves every now and then (p. 25).

Employer: We want a responsible man for this job.

Applicant: Well, I guess I'm your man. In all the other jobs I have worked at, whenever anything went wrong, they told me I was responsible (p. 138).
