The Fed's gonna need an awfully big vacuum to suck all this cash back (one day) before inflation sets in

At some point you have to ask, what's backing up all that credit?

So investors are considering numeric domains, what now?

Markets are crumbling, investors are fleeing. A bunch of individual investors begin investigating other asset classes. And a few read about numeric domaining (yeah!).

So how do we convert them? How do we convince Joe Investor who just closed out his mutual fund portfolio on Wednesday and has $350,000 in cash coming to him soon that numeric domains are a safe investment that can bring a good ROI, or return on investment?

Even though sophisticated investors (of all types) likely acknowledge that domaining is a 'long-term play,' the problem is that the numeric domain market is illiquid. There's not an adequate marketplace of buyers for most numeric domain types, and so that presents lots of concerns. (NN.com's and NNN.com's are probably the only exceptions.) If there was a more liquid marketplace, then outside investors could (1) better appraise our numeric domain holdings for purposes of making an offer, (2) see that there are some serious profits being made already and (3) know that they won't be stuck in 1, 2 or 10 years holding an asset they can't get rid of.

Until Bear Stearns kicked the bucket and the stock market started tanking, investing in stocks made sense on all three accounts: the market price of just about any stock was well-defined, there was a history of long-term profitable returns for most diversified stock portfolio types, and shares have been usually very liquid (you can sell most stocks in seconds or minutes, and the spreads were small).

NOW, all that's changed. Stocks are plummeting because no one knows companies' exposures to real-estate derivatives products that aren't liquid, the profit-potential of stock-market investing is in serious question, and people are worried that if a company goes under their shares will be worthless.

Numeric domainers may, in the end, have to solve liquidity problems themselves before attracting investors. And increasing trading may be the answer. If numeric domainers increase the volume of transactions then that might attract outsiders if enough trading brings sufficient liquidity, more clearly defined domain values and a track record of steady profitmaking.

Sell all your stocks and invest in numeric domain names

Jim "Mad Money" Cramer come out today with a heck of a surprise statement: “Whatever money you may need for the next five years, please take it out of the stock market right now, this week. I do not believe that you should risk those assets in the stock market right now.”

Jim cares about you, and so do we. So when you ask 'What to do with the money?,' we advise you to do just one thing: Buy numeric domains! Learn about numeric domaining here and at NumericDomains.com.

Jamptap has no domains for sale, but we do have the most extensive blogging archive on the topic where you can learn about this niche; afterwards, you'll have no problem finding sellers out there who are willing to let their domains go for bargain prices.

The Numeric Domain market is showing signs of strengthening in an otherwise sour economic environment. Three-digit numerics (NNN.com) are going for $XXX,XXX these days, NNNNN.com's COMPLETELY SOLD OUT in 2008, and wordnumbers, dotcom number domains that stand for words (466453.com = Google.com), are going to be the best investment of all.

Why will dotcom (and other dotTLD) wordnumbers be the best investment of all?

Because check this out: all of these companies: Google, ChaCha, Expedia, 4Info, Sony, Reuters, and Yahoo; they all own a .com/.net/or .mobi wordnumber domain. Yet thousands of upstart Web 2.0 companies don't. They're clueless. They'll kick themselves when they realize you got in on the action before they did. So cash out those wretched stock portfolios and buy numeric domains before the landrush is, well, over. Start your journey today!

$700 Billion in 'reverse economic stimulus checks'

Congress may approve the American President's proposal to allocate $700 BILLION to the biggest bailout of financial institutions since the Great Depression.

How much is $700 BILLION?

It's about equivalent to giving a $100,000 Hummer to each man, woman and child living in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Or giving a hundred pairs of $40 blue jeans to every college student in the United States!

Or equivalent to awarding $17.5 million to every taxi cab driver in New York City!

Or giving a $200 gas card to every person worldwide that has a mobile phone!

Or if every adult person in America was forced to make out 7 (SEVEN) $600 checks payable to the government. Call it a reverse-economic stimulus payment plan. Or 'get one $600 stimulus check, and give back seven $600 checks'.

Understanding the crisis:

Ron Paul: "If this process continues, we're going to own General Motors and Ford, then we will have to own the airlines. We are socializing our country without even a vote by the Congress. It's a horrible situation."

Adhip Chaudhuri, economic analyst, 'At the same time, let us be sure that the US government will be left with all the lemons while the private companies will keep all the peaches. No doubt this will bail out the private financial institutions, but how much will it cost the taxpayers?'

Danny Schechter, GlobalResearch.ca: 'Joe Nocera in the New York Times was less positive, likening these measures to a “hail mary pass” in football where a quarterback just flings the ball in the final minutes of the game and hopes someone catches it, noting that ”most of the time they fail.”'
