saw this come out yesterday. but i guess the USA will have to decid what is more important, AAA rating or backing the GSE's which they have not backed yet. does not seems like a big deal. Just like MBI and ABK the rating wont be cut until they are giving plenty of time to fix themselvs up

I hit the qld once on a few story and there was alot of slippage.

where is this mountain of debt? last time i checked debt to GDP has only gone up slightly http://zfacts.com/p/318.html. Agree with the iraq war or not, most people belive that increased spending was the correect thing to do after 9/11 If the USA can borrow at 3.5% for 10 years, while...

how nice another jealous little brother from up north. you better pray McCain wins, not only for $200 oil, but to keep NAFTA. Thinks he's so much smarter then most americans, this is the smug, arrogant attitude of most canadians toward americans

yeah keep laughing until the commodity boom ends and your back to an exchange rate of 50 cents to the dollar. I love these countries that think they can keep growing and booming and it does matter what the USA is doing. decoupling my ass. And just wait till one of those dems wins who talk...

You got some great historical data here, but the reason I don’t like it is because JPM basically bought BSC for 2 billion (1 billion risk on the 30 billion $ portfolio backed by the fed) and 1.2 billion for BSC shareholders. Jamie diamond has done a great job in this crisis and has managed...

That’s really incorrect. IF you made say 200k in 2007 then you would have to pay 110% of your tax liability in quartly estimates for the next year not to incur any interest. SO if your tax bill for 2007 was $60,000 then your estimated tax bill for 2008 would be $66,000 total or $16,500 per...

I'd call it bullshitting for dummies. hes full of crap

id be excited if my estimated tax payment was 225 million was due in 4 days

am i getting you correctly? do you want to limit volatility? i thought all traders loved volatility

yeah its just not worth it. either u do it on a small scale and make 30k which is SO not worth it. Or you buy way out of the money calls, and its so suspect your just asking to be caught. The only people who can get away with it for size are the people who can just buy a few hundred thousand...

I guess no different then David Faber breaking a news story on CNBC. As long as he does not trade it before he breaks the news

But if briefing is not getting it directly from UBS why is it public? And is the person who gave it to them guilty of inside info? IF the info comes accross the UBS box directly to the brokers, who share it with there clients...im just confused at what point the info becomes public. For...

Silly question, but how is what these traders doing any different then getting the UBS up grades and downgrades from briefing.com? Are they just too quick? Sam Childs aside since be basically committed blackmail.

I like how the market is up acouple weeks and everyone forgets about the uptick rule. Not a big concern as it was 10 days ago:D
