    -40k non farm payrolls expected

    It's interesting to see bonds trading as if we're close to economic Armageddon but employment is expected to come in at 'only' -40k. -200k would be more in line with the bond market. Something's gotta give.

    How to short Citigroup

    IB lists C in "dark green", i.e. shortable only when shares can be allocated. They don't have enough inventory available right now. You can always buy puts or short XLF (financial sector spdrs).

    Charlie Gasparino inks $400,000 advance for book on BSC collapse

    When the house next door is on fire, why is the government spending tax dollars to bring in the fire brigade to put out the fire. Maybe so the whole neighborhood doesn't catch fire and your house doesn't burn down, too? Is that also plain wrong?

    LOL. The SEC Wants to Stop Y'all From Spreading Nasty Rumors About Lehman

    Kinda funny we never heard the SEC investigating all those fake "buyout" rumors that seemed to give stocks those 5% bounces on Fridays before merger Monday last year. Now when the market is in trouble they think they have to investigate. Interesting.

    Listen to yourself. You sound just like a perma bear incarnation of stock_trad3r. And you fail to reply to any rebuttals and counter arguments. You just keep re-posting the same platitudes. Let me guess. You understand more about macro economics and the credit system than the Fed governors...

    Anyone paying attention to the collapse in LEH

    Just asking for some opinion. Couldn't the point be made that the Fed discount window accepting mortgage bond collateral is a game changer for LEH vs. BSC? BSC didn't have access to this facility while LEH does thanks to the BSC precedence. I am not saying LEH can't go down the drain, it just...
