Why is it relevant (anymore)?

How did it fall off the radar?

 Your #1 because you earn it..I couldnt  sleep last night,or should I say early this morning so I got up, fixed a pot of coffee, sat down a the pc, hit refresh and you guys had just uploaded brand new fresh information..I was like, wtf? What time is it? And that update had some meat and potatoes in it, not filler crap..When you guys put something up, you almost CANNOT AFFORD to pass it by..As in other blogs,sites,etc.. I can just do a drive by with the quick scan and pick a thing or two out and move on..

 So congrats, keep up the good work..I appreciate it and I have said before, I will make a donation later in month on my bill paying day..

I would congratulate you on the PR coup, but Mr. Gibbs and crew are a scurvvy lot of amateurs, so despite having the full faith & credit as well as the vast array of intelligence and disinformation/psyop resources of the US behind them, one cannot be so sure that trumping them is much of an accomplishment.  Nevertheless, keep up the good work.

Hi, White House interns.  Your job is not that important.  Your political science degree was a mistake.  Your current employer and everyone at your job are going to jump on a plane to their villas in South America just as a rabble of very angry people are ready to lynch everyone in the government.  Your only hope is to blow someone with one of those villas and make sure you get on one of those planes.  Live it up, bitches.  It's going to get crazy.

Great work guys. I remember reading somewhere that ZH had "conspiratorial" overtones. Well, we live in a twisted world when the truth is labelled as "conspiracy" and the real conspiracies are passed around as truth and "news" by the MSM. One need only go to NY Times to read the latest conspiracies; on ZH truth is the ONLY thing that you'll find.

It is a compound of Con (with) and Spire (as in in-spire, to breathe)... etymologically speaking.

The people entrusted to print money are giving dozens of trillions dollars away to alleviate the losses of banks so they can continue their privileged lifestyle unabated by global depressions, they caused. They traded everything we built in this country over 200 plus years and, they traded it's future for their past excess and present comfort. They trampled on our most honored documents to do so. This is not important. Zero Hedge is not important.

"Look Barry, grow a pair. Sell off Yellowstone National Park to the Red Chinese, start shipping the graduating class of Harvard Business School to work off their student loans in the brothels of Shenzen, and let the South Koreans start dancing around the maypole with their Northern neighbors.

Also, sell the entire US Navy to Russian oligarchs so they can play out a real-life game of Battleship."

This is only my second post on here.  I've been following you guys for ~6 months and have never come across any media source that speaks more truth to power than this site.  I hope you keep it up and my donation is on its way tonight.  I wish I could fill a smoky room in the back of a whiskey bar with the people that follow this site because I know for sure that I would feel a certain kinship with you guys that I never feel when I speak with the sheeple in the "real world".  Anyone ever think about forming regional groups of people who live in the same geographic region so that we can share a pint over some reality/comedy??  Perhaps I'm being somewhat sentimental but it's a real treat to check out what is posted here at the end of the day.  One question----If one is to move one's gold stack from one side of the country to the other would it be prudent to take it on a plane (it is a substantial sum)?

When I started reading this site in early 09 ZH had the distinct vibe of being underground and subversive, sometimes just for the shear hell of it.  As time has passed it is astonishing to watch the world outside start to turn (ever so slowly) as ZH has consistently applied pressure where it hurts.  Outstanding reporting on FED abuses, Wall Street banking outrages, MBS fraud, PM manipulation, Soverign Debt, market maipulation, etc., etc.,  has seen the light on ZH weeks or months before the MSM and even Congress begin to grapple with them.  Keep up the pressure ladies and gentlemen.  Soon real change will begin to occur.

I am a much better educated person than a year ago.  A day without ZH truly sucks...

ZH is a mindset, a collaboration of world wide energy, never worried about "pc" and always "on" , watching, observing and listening. To the looters of Wall Street, the  fed-heads, pseudo-journalists, opposites of progress (i.e. congress), and short (and wimpy) dictators of the world, the message is, you can run but you can't hide from Zed Hedge.

I know you're out there. I can feel you now. I know that you're afraid... you're afraid of us. You're afraid of change. I don't know the future. I didn't come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to tell you how it's going to begin.

I declare the months of January through December, Zero Hedge Months.

Let's all chip in some bucks. If TD had better servers and more up time, ZH would move up much higher on the list. Everyone....put up or shut up.

Tyler -- I love this place just the way it is. Congratulations.

Seize the tape.

Of note:  The site seems to be responding better lately.  It sure was frustrating last week during the day of the flash crash.  Have not had a delay all day, nor yesterday.

Congratulations!

I have been reading ZH since the early days and read it everyday. I don't beliieve an f-ing thing the gov says or the paid douches like Liesman spewing their propoganda to the sheeple on MSNBC. I tell everyone I know to read ZH and to wake up , don't even go to the gold forums anymore, most posts there are links from here.keep up the awesum work.

I found you ZH way back when I was searching for any info on my conspiracy theory that computers were in control. ZH was an early adopter of the HFT millisecond trades that cleared things up for me. Little did I know then that it really doesnt matter what you catch them at , rules only apply to the little guy. As long as money is involved the entity with the most can use you as his mop bucket. I learned oligarchy rules and the american way and Democracy is just another way of saying "yea, I take bribes, I own politicians, pay up or fuck you"

I think that definition will be in Websters next year.  lol

Don't forget to put your money where your mouth is.  ZH doesn't have its own printing press...  I bought a t-shirt and have donated twice before; will do so again soon.

 

Donate, bitches!

I have watched quite a few scenes fluoresce over the years, and this one is very lovely to me because of the synergy between juvenile delinquency and the ferretlike pursuit of truth.  Since my frontline idols are Frank Zappa, Hunter S. Thompson and George Carlin, this is sweet sweet wine.

ZH, folks, IS evolution in action.  We either get a handle on this shit or we (meaning society worth living in) die.

clink! you go, TD!

The first post that I ever read here... was about a black swan event that was going to take the markets down.  D'oh!

Still, I've been here since the blogger days.  I sometimes disagree with the sentiments here, but I think that the posters AND the people here are the smartest on the web, no doubt.

This site is the best, and I love coming here.  I've learned more here than in B school fo sho!

Mad props to ZH.  Normally I just lurk; however I have learned more at this site than anywhere else.  The content and contributors are all first rate and my dilema is I spend too much time here and can't get anything else done. I guess it could be worse, I could just be a sheeple and pretend everything is okey dokey all the while I'm getting screwed.  I'm getting a PHD for a minor contribution of $$. Awesome.

Freakin' awesome. 

I hope that's a precursor for the rule of law in the U. S.

Folks went to jail for the Great Depression.

Kudos to Iceland's system.

They sure do name their banks funny, however:  Kaput-thing, Lands-without-banki, Glitter-no-more.

They name themselves funny as well. Did ya know that when a son is born, he gets his father's name with 'son' attached to the end? ie. Rockyracoonson. Just some goofy trivia!

Absolutely the best blog in the ether.  You have stolen the thunderbolts from the gods and electrified us all.

In the process you have ruined my life but what was destroyed was not worth keeping.  From the wreckage a better self is emerging.  Thanks for the truth in all its wretched detail.

Why shouldn't ZH beat WH? As legendary baseball player Babe Ruth said, when asked if it was right that he earned more money than the President of the US, he replied, "Why not. I had a better year."

Zero Hedge is a good site. All media must submit to a higher form of authority. We are not in living in a world of pure messianic anarchism just yet , and so various departments of state and government are required. Certain boundaries must be respected. Some form of oversight and censorship of the internet is warranted...

Zero hedge is the best site of it's type - period.  Even down under in little NZ some of us see the train wreck coming.  FYI We still have house prices at 6 to 7 times average income so a world of pain to come.  Our Aussie mates, house price wise, are in even worse shape.  People started to listen to me during the last quarter of '08 but now it's back to "hope 'n' change".  Oh well I tried.  At least we, in NZ, produce shit loads of food.  So a welcome ZH friends for some duck, bunny, deer, pig and goat hunting in a range near by.... guess what no fees but you gotta carry it out yourself! 

Peace and health to you all!

thx to Cheeky and Mr Gekko I await daily for their thoughtful and comprehensive insights.

Congrats, ZH. You are by far the best public source of critical financial analysis.

I see the WhiteHouse.gov Blog's trend is up (+5); maybe Harry Wanger has been refreshing his browser a tad too often...

First comment.

I am one of those "nincompoops" who isn't a trader (as one commenter put it) but stumbled on this site while trying to become educated on the economic situation.  Of course I became hooked.  Congrats - great site, great info and great community.

Now, who do I fight?
