because they already printed too much, debt/money is being destroyed, fewer dollars in circulation means a higher value. USD is going to skyrocket; the play is and has been long USD own no assets.

So how can we get the dollar to 0 and devalue our way to prosperity?

9/11 truther, or you cant handle the truth?

:p Anyone know where on the CNBC store I order these?

I thought MOS was a stocktrader index holding, or is it POT?

kleptocracy. Look it up

Thanks! As noted, part of the bailout is suspension of mark-to-market. In addition, reserves are set to 0. The suspension of the mark-to-market will actually make lending tougher in my opinion because now you are institutionalizing lying about what your assets are worth. I.e. ok, govt...

i cant stand her sensationalist coverage. TBH, I cant stand most CNBC personalities, I try to watch sometimes and its unbearable, I have to turn it off. I don't know how anyone making money could watch it other than in MUTE for breaking news

This irony, of course, is that the "evil short-sellers" were GOLDMAN, who got big brownie points for profits when the other IBs were failing because they were shorting MBS
