    Isnt the window open until after elections? How can they go out with the window? I'm not trying to say they wont go out, I'm not understanding. I understand people are saying no moral hazard, especially in light of gse. But... they will close the window? Like today? Im not getting this...

    They never did come out after Mer offering did they? Their books are a mess, not sure how they are marking things these days, but Mer should have been what to mark to.

    Google bringing out own browser !!!

    It was still pretty creepy, resolved or not. A browser collecting information on everything you do. Not like you can just delete cookies, it is one giant cookie. An eyeball looking back at you. I tried it out, doesn't come close to Firefox yet. I have no doubt one day it will though.

    Super Strong Volume Today 08-28-08

    Fre Fnm showing strength. The financials were battered terribly on the expectation that the government was going into them. They will live a bit longer, survive? The bets are still against, but they have some life again.

    US, Europe, Japan Planned Dollar Rescue

    Lol... why bastards? I like this. Our Treasury has global partners looking for a dollar with some relative strength. This is good news, great news in fact.

    Floating rate notes

    Anyone catch this article in the WSJ? A nine moth period give or take of these things coming due. Thain and his "very soon to profitability" line, looking foolish.

    Bernanke a genius?

    We can blame Greenspan. I look at differently and blame greedy bond traders. And they are suffering for it now. No amount of easing will save them in the end. Their products are junk. The fact that Greenspan endorsed that junk, just means he was a fool, it does not prove he was captain of...

    Bernanke a genius?

    Bernake and company are the reason we did not enter a depression. All those who were, and some silly leftovers, calling for a hike would have sent us there. If you read his speeches on the irresponsible panic type behavior that caused the Great Depression, such as raising rates and some...

    Fnm Fre

    If I take your first two givens, I do not come to the same conclusion, in fact in my mind your conclusions contradict what is given. Diluting to those low levels would destroy confidence when they want to build it. If they want it to remain private, as they have stated, they can not...

    The American way of dealing with economic problems

    Southamerica your threads are worthless. You started another one about the great exodus of immigrants. Now one about a huge influx. You will post any old crap that paints the US in a bad light. Shut it, you are as worthless as your threads.

    Fnm Fre

    I jumped in and bought some fre trash. Treasury says it wants it to remain private. They will have to paint the tape somehow. Long term they prolly will fail, but if this is what they want, 3 a share wont cut it. I may get a noob lesson, but I jumped in.
