Seems that there is some personal history between the procrastinators in this thread. I do not want to get involved in that, and I am not taking sides. But I would like to bring my unimportant opinion (for the only reason that it will make me feel better that I said it). 1. Do not buy what...

Gettlefinger (sp?) [UAW] asked all Americans to give, all their money, to anyone who does/has worked at an American auto manufacture. We need to be sure that they can continue to donate 10% of their bonus checks. Market loved it.....

Could be the best thing you have ever posted. A long way from arguing about routers and motherboards. ;) The above is a profound piece of the puzzle.

And which countries are the wealthy ones? I am not saying unions should go away completely, but their past was born from fighting horrible employment practices. NOT fighting for every dollar the company makes.

I don't think anyone is saying that people who get a pension from GM are greedy. It is the UAW (and most unions). (Edit: and dealers, and executives) Every time these companies made ANY money; you had the UAW licking their lips for 'contract' renegotiation. And many times it was a put a gun...

Bank of Japan? :)

If I may make a small observation. I qualify this observation with the fact that I do not read every post in this thread. I make no claims of being better/worse than anyone. And I don't really claim to know anything. This observation is towards B1S2. Going off of memory; you have often made...

Some obviously want it to trade at 900. I think they are brave to try and peg this market. They'll have a pucker factor of 10 going into the last hour.

I can count on one hand the number of trades I have made in the last two weeks. My trading is based on risk, and one of the inputs is the range. I am seeing double my risk tolerances/limits every day. edit: I am very risk adverse; I guess I could trade exceptionally small, but that is not...

Fuking Beautiful. :D

I have heard rumblings for some time about many of the "annuity" products. It is shocking how bad some of these are so ridiculously bad for the "investor."

I know nothing. Just interjecting a thought that comes from experience. Why do all this, if everything is all great? I hope it trades at 30 today. Trying to be constructive; I should have know better.

Actually, I do not need to do anything. I am not a shareholder. You are right. They are not a bank. That would concern me even more.
