Wow. This market is really just unbelievable. I'm a longer term position player - weeks to months timeframe and I just keep shortening and shortening my focus. I think I am now thinking forward in terms of 4 hour blocks rather than days. Went short on the close yesterday, closed out...

Just out of curiosity, has anyone noticed that the 'TIME' to go long used to be 2:30pm and now is 1:30pm? Daylight savings time anyone? Perhaps the master TARP computer didn't get updated.

OK rennick. I'm with ya here. Let's see a moderate repeat of yesterday, even if we only close at flat or slightly down. Its ahead of G20, you know.

My position on this has always been that since Rubin wouldn't touch the CEO slot with a 20 foot pole, citi must stink worse than a rotting fish. Hence the choice of Mr Pandit to be the fall guy as it all comes apart. With that said, under $10 it starts to look purchasable. Under $5 I...

If your income is in USD, why buy dollars? You have a structural long position. Dollar stronger? Better for you. Take the losses in your investment account and write them down for a tax deduction. Rinse and repeat.

Out of SDS @ 92.90. See? All's well.

I should disclose that : 1. I have a (reasonably) tight stop (3% which is tight in this security) in this trade, which is only on for a small amount in the account I am trading it in and expect to close it out at a 1.5x risk ratio. 2. Looked at this as window dressing in front of G20...

I might regret it tomorrow but I just had to sell that close. + SDS @ 90.70 Great fill for today, but might not be for long! :D

I've got a standing order in to buy under $10. Even if the world is ending - why not?

YUP!

Rahm is channeling two ideas: 1. The inculcation of shared community values and civic duty gained through his compulsory (elected) service in Israel 2. The creation and implementation of Tom Barnett's SysAdmin force to occupy and control countries/regions after the leviathan force (US...

True, which is why it will all be new construction.

Crash in a Kia and you won't need to worry about replacement parts.

Considering the circumstances, and likelihood of herself being elected, Sarah probably chose the only reasonable option - enjoy the ride, get a few nice duds and perks out of it for her and her family, and the ride off into the sunset of obscurity. Considering the evisceration that she has...

OMG and then roll 30 year zeroes annually? I would drop down on my knees and thank god and jesus and even allah or yahweh or confucious or whomever else you wanted me to on a daily basis as I became a risk free gazillionaire! Not gonna happen, unfortunately.

Yup, missed that opportunity a few years back, its true.

Suspect this is now becoming the most likely scenario as well. With President elect Obama's victory, oil as an asset class is the most perplexing area. Bad for oil: Alt energy, conservation, mandated efficiency standards for cars, hybrid vehicles, gas guzzler taxes, Good for oil: Currency...

So are we now. Adapt or die.

Would be curious to know the specifics. Seems that this bunch was a separate proprietary group that was making bets cross markets (or in out of favor securities, such as CDO's etc...) and had underlying core competencies that warranted their moving into the single product trading environment...

Gnome - think its a sentiment play. Consider how heavy Gulden's Snacks (first 2 letters) are bidding O's presidency & realize that there will be euphoria for short term. Only after later when its clear he is not going to play ball will there be negativity (post beginning of january, but i...
