I think about half of what you predict will come to fruition, while the other half will fall flat on its’ rear……………….Oh and will Time-Warner stockholders finally fire the insanely arrogant mismanaging Upper Echelon corperate officers. Like Richard C. Parsons, who have all but destroyed that media giant?? I certainly hope so!!!

It feels to me that people need predictions because they need something to hang on to!
Everyone knows that predictions usually tend to be wrong, but we still like to hear about them.

Thanks for commenting Constantine!

- Oil will be max $25 by spring this year. Lets say $31 by February 1st, $26 by March 1st, $21 on April 1st.

- Many many many banks will go bankrupt, both small and big.

- Atleast one of the 3 large car makers will go bankrupt before June and will be acquired by another automaker or cut into pieces (smaller companies) which will be sold separately.

- Gold will fluctuate around the same price it is now, can go up 20-30% for a short while, but will remain near current price

- real-estate market will fall atleast 50-60%

- Obamas stimulus package will turn the US economy around, results seen by end of year already as massive amounts of funds will be spent on turning to domestic sources of energy. IT won’t affect rest of world economy positively though and recession will continue elsewhere.

- US troops removed from Iraq, most are returned home to save expenses, some to Afghanistan, some activity will start in Pakistan.

- Castro will die, Cuba will become a democracy and experience HUGE growth.

- Gaza and Israel’s war will increase to include other arab countries. Israel will emerge victorious.

- End of January or in February Russia will attack Ukraine, soon thereafter Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania.
EU and NATO will do nothing. Russia buils another direct gas-pipeline to remaining EU countries.

- Estonian and Latvian governments declare bankruptcy, devalue currency.

The quotes surrounding your predictions tell a story that runs on the side of your actual predictions. Many of these predictions do appear to follow the trends that are being started at this time. They seem more reality-based than some of the predictions provided by news sources.

Thanks for your flattering comment!

After a year I can probably say what Robert Caro said – “My predictions are notably inaccurate.”

However its fun to make predictions and should any of them become true – the better!

I don’t have a twitter account yet, but opening one is 1 of my next weeks goals!
I’m sure I’ll announce it in the blog.

You are a genius! Love your blog it is entertaining and informative. Do you have a twitter account yet?

I agree, if you want to make money this year then invest in Oil or look to China.

Readers, if you want a prophet for 2009, then this is the blog to follow!

I think that the US dollars will rise against the Euro and there will be trouble in the EU, could be that Germany or France want to go back to their old currencies.
