    Finally, after I called for this for 2 years that pos Mozillo CHARGED

    Although he already looks like toast, he's toast. The FBI has been working thru the SEC to pursue criminal charges. A Wells notice just gives you a chance to respond before formal charges are brought upon you. By the time you get one, they know you did something wrong and are just letting you...

    Major Bank to Collapse in a few days

    Sorry, but ridiculous. Bond market ripped higher today, up 1+%. Rates are much lower across the board this week. No spikes in overnight repo rates either. :confused:

    huge stock market rally is over for now!

    Nifty Fifty seemed to rally the market towards end of day. Pretty negative close though actually. I think only Dow was positivie. Banks tried and failed. Everyone got all hopped up after the close about INTC. Apparrently a passing comment from CEO was made to CNBC reporter as he was walking by...

    The Credit Crisis Financial Stocks Short Journal

    Never like shorting GS, but it stuck out like a sore thumb this AM after all the simpleminded blindly bought it following his upgrade. Banks were getting hammered early and it was up $3 along with MS up .45 They were the only green things on my screen except for oil and the SKF's. Came in nicely.

    ArcelorMittal workers attack HQ

    Makes Berkshire Hathaway's annual meeting look pretty dull by comparison. Must be a chemical that gets in your brain during the smelting process that makes you go nuts. When I got fired once I stole a stapler when I left. I thought I was being quite Risqu'e at the time. Should have fire-bombed...

    I Would Not Own Banks Stocks: Meredith Whitney

    I know some of you guys say that some of this stuff is staged by CNBC. I am starting to believe it. Almost like how they set up that ugly chick in UK talent show that sang great, like it was a shocker. Totally staged. This seriously pissed me off though. They knew what Whitney would say. I...

    I Would Not Own Banks Stocks: Meredith Whitney

    Sorry, put this on a different thread below. Anybody else see the interview? As soon as I saw her face on the TV I blew out of all my stocks. Was the right move, didn't make me money but I saved losing a bunch.

    what can I learn in a proprietary trading firm?

    Although this sounds harsh, I couldn't agree more. There is no easy fix. No get rich quick scheme. You will find that trading is not like poker online. There is only one way to learn it. Put some money down, get leverage, go slow/small, read everything you can about trading, and in 6-9 months...

    RBC Professional Trading Group

    It's 50/50 .01/share. Even if there were a salary, it would just be a draw against future profits. If you are not profitable you will be gone in 3 months.

    huge stock market rally is over for now!

    Although I agree that the banks may take a breather, I can't believe Meredith W's interview with Maria Bartaromo. Yes Meredith predicted on Halloween of '07 that Citi would be in trouble. Anyone who follows the debt market at the time was like 'duh'. The LBO/bridge loans that the banks got stuck...

    Which laptops for trading?

    It sounds like a Satelite A65, mine was a Satelite. I would just google it. I got something in the mail because I registered it. Sounds like they all had fan problems. Here is one link: About Toshiba Laptops Overheating

    Which laptops for trading?

    Is it old? My Toshiba did that. I called and they informed me that there was a class action lawsuit. I got a box sent to me, returned it and eventually got a check for like $1000.

    Which laptops for trading?

    Sony's are OK. I had a Toshiba that used to get so hot it nearly burned me. I like Dell. Check out the link below. We all use Dell stuff and get it here; used/returned stuff. I don't care that it's refurbished, it's cheaper and guaranteed/warranteed like new. This way if the banks spike and it...

    huge stock market rally is over for now!

    If we are talking Dow, I am looking for a 1-2 week pullback to ~7850 level. Once Memorial Day gets here we probably go sideways for a while. This level to me is a 1/3 Fibonacci retracement of 2000 point move and a former resistance and then support level. I believe this would probably be the...

    huge stock market rally is over for now!

    I for one have been quite bullish on the vacuum up as in my thread the past 7 weeks. More for technical reasons than anything else. I am a bit concerned in the short-term for the following reasons: 1) Sell the news in banks. Now that all the 'unknowns' are out, as in the results of the stress...

    Betting on interest rates - ideas wanted

    TLT is the most popular. At least it's very liquid and its the one I use most. Remember, this is a price of a theoretical/synthetic 20 year t-bond. If you think rates will go higher, you short it.
