Thx, Nazz Yea I'm new so this one I'm gonna try and learn as much as I can. Everything I believe in makes me want to trade this and buy. But being new I'm not sure what to believe in heh. Will see how this plays out for whoever is playing the straddle.

I like the company, and the volume plus price action has me really wanting to get on board. But I do not understand the options activity. Intense buying at the 35 level. Anyone have any insight into this? It is making me not buy at the moment.

Uncle Sam says "Don't let the door hit ya in the ass" I'm short this market 6 ways to Sunday. We got fat and lazy, we are overextended and due for a big correction. But when the shit hits the fan, there is no tougher nation. Good luck to you and your friends in the third world.

I see Bear Sterns indictments, which is good, and reaffirms all who short them.

"The poorly run, less intelligent hedge fund managers, need to use every trick in the book to make money." Interesting

Is leh even gonna survive to make the 16 a great buy? Mer would sell crack to a baby at this point. C - how much do they have off the books? Dangerous. There are some bargins if you can hold for along time, but there are probably some that will not make it out.

Wow. IndyMac 1 billion construction portfolio 50% in default at the end. Very troubling. The housing bill can not plug that dam. I can only hope IndyMac was as unique as it was shady. Terrible:(

Yes, I should have had this mentality a few weeks back. I learned a lesson with WB trying to bet on JPM as a white knight. It seemed to me all signs were there. WB has GS, known for fasciliting slales looking at thier books. JPM was rumored to want southern exposure. I was burned in...

The prime rate seems so static. Is the news on Chrysler "no more leasing" a warning sign that the banks are beginning to pull back in earnest?

Ive heard the same thing from others on Cnbc, namely fast money. Using the same stock WM, They call their investment plan with WM "asymmetric risk" Im new but this sounds like degenerate gambling behavior. They claim the downside is limited because its only a 4 dollar stock. The...

I would like to learn about the willingness of banks to lend, which rate applies best and a "quick glance" way to read the rate. I will learn on my own, just need a push. I heard banks are less willing to lend recently even with the housing bill, and from what I am learning this foreshadows...

Ouch.. lol

I dont buy priced in. Market is wrong imo. They priced in second half recovery, now trying first half 09. Will fail again. Waiting to short again.

Eh I think I'm prolly overthinking something. But I really feel like I missed a very easy trade. Very oversold in financials any good news would shoot it higher. Then two studs report, one day after each other. I heard about someone grabbing thousands of calls on financials, I feel like...

Shorting FTD florists

Quant guys made a fortune? Went with Wells Fargo and JPM earnings and went at it, buying up all financials before the junk financial earnings. Should I have seen this coming or am I reading too much into it? Meaning am I way too paranoid? heh.:eek:

Ah I see, I am looking at taking a short in an uptrend, so here I am wrong with an analogy to FSLR. I take it, that if it were to correct and I went long in the face of it, that is what is being discussed. Sorry, let me get my noob ass out of the way of a great thread. :)
