Dudes, if you've read his previous posts, he's more or less an investor, not a full fledged trader. Doesn't have the ultratight risk parameters like traders do.

A nice one! We get a thread like this every other week on ET and we all know what that means. :D

Just as a public announcement, I was referred to by another ET member of the fact that IB is no longer offering Reuters Bridgechannel.

briefing platimum provides live headlines (updates automatically without refresh; the page has multi sections such as In Play, Headlines, Earnings & Economic news and each section can be set with a visual or a sound alert, or both) as well as stock market update which discusses what's being...

http://www.briefing.com/PlatinumIndex.htm 30 bucks a month. Pros: pricing, contents Cons: not always the speediest; it's not really for tracking stocks real time. Between it, Bloomberg TV and the squawk box service for which I pay around 125 bucks a month (my squawk has its own news service...

Michael Scott, Could you please put your initials on your thread titles so I won't have to accidentally click on your threads ever again? Thanks (I am not able to see any of your replies but I hope you do it).

"Bear Stearns Plans $3.2 Billion Fund Rescue to Halt Fire Sale". The mother of all martingales. Will they have $6.4B to put up if this turns sour? If you want to average down on a loser, I guess this is how you do it. :D

The Chinese government just allocated $300 bil. out of some $1 tril. of their trade surplus to diversify their portfolio (i.e. have you noticed US bonds going lower while indices worldwide are getting incessant bids?) to compensate for their strengthening RMB. It has nothing to do with the...

30-40k.

Pfft, if anything UBS did the right thing by putting an end to that fraud and his investors were what one might call "acceptable losses" for the greater good of the market.

RPT = Renmin Protection Team? :p

My thoughts on the matter: - China obviously divesting US Treas. and seeking alpha. Bond yields will move up over time with the Chinese bids dissipating - might break the mortgage camel's back imo; US stocks may benefit short term as they pour money into different assets but longer term...

Oh my. . . AP China to Invest $3 Billion in Blackstone Sunday May 20, 6:02 pm ET By Joe Bel Bruno, AP Business Writer China Agrees to Acquire $3 Billion Stake in Private Equity Firm Blackstone NEW YORK (AP) -- China has agreed to acquire a $3 billion stake in U.S...

More substantial than what most of us will ever provide on this board, including the guy who called it a garbage. Big boys are playing the sell hard-give 'em a little short signal-then squeeze 'em to death with big bids (they aren't really buying huge but herding the hurt to that direction)...
