Just be careful because Etrade's savings account only really works if used with another Etrade acct. If you are trading and transferring money in and out of a non-etrade account they will hold your money for 3-5 days before settling (each time). I think IB's rate is close to 4% now anyway

Why is everyone so convinced none of these stocks will ever go up again? If it was that obvious the stocks would have been at $5 already. The sentiment is actually a bullish indicator if anything. BAC buying CFC -why so bad? When the housing market picks up again that investment will...

Hey, Goldman predicted $100 oil 4 years ago, so maybe there is a several year lead time on their recession predictions as well

When he made his first 50 pt cut i thought there was a disaster coming that most people weren't aware of (which is why everyone was complaining about such a large cut), now they want more. But good luck trying to time any of this

What a joke, and the 200 were probably data mined so they could create such a 'scary' headline

Its true- haven't people figured out that socialism doesn't work very well? You'd expect more from posters on a board revolving around capitalism and free markets. Hey lets hand out 5 grand every time someone has a kid, that'll solve the debt problems! Hillary for president 08

Its a good point because people seem to be hung up on the terminology and textbook definition of recession. Its bad either way. I wonder when greenspan will give us his next % chance of recession, while at the same time denying any responsibility for the current mess.

I wouldn't vote for them just based on that, question: Name some things the democrat controlled house/senate accomplished that they promised people. Leaving Iraq? yeah theyre doing a good job with that too. Hillary is a socialist/communist ACK ACK ACK, Obama makes good speeches and is...

I'm not sure about Ron Paul, but Hillary and Obama would be DISASTERS for the economy and markets. First off, any perceived victory by them will cause the market to plummet because it has to price in the uncertainty of "change". The discounting may have already begun (more social programs and...

Hillary is way left of center too though; she may APPEAR to be a moderate right now bc she is sucking up to potential voters to seem more appealing. Her socialist garbage programs (like free health care) will not help the debt situation either.

But by then you might have missed the surge

Every time we have a volatile day there are at least 5-10 threads on how the market was manipulated, conspiracy theories, PPT, it was Bush's fault, Goldman Sachs did it, etc. Shorting within the last 10 minutes of every day can only work so many times.

Does anyone here trade this stock (well)? This thing gets slaughtered in markets like this (that is before it rebounds several hundred percent). Their debt levels are killing them, but they will still probably survive, again.

Were you using the BullNbear method of support and resistance?

Its not worth discussing because a market-moving piece of news can be released at any second, so right now id say theres a 50/50 chance. Like the ATT release yesterday, for example.

And this is one huge reason why our healthcare costs are going up. I can't believe the number of morons in US/canada who honestly believe "free" healthcare from the government would be an improvement?? How many projects has the government embarked on that resulted in a more efficient...

Thanks Again Russia

It is interesting - earlier in 2007 they would usually tank double what the decline was in US markets. As long as carry trade stays on, we may have some support

We have a better chance of being rescued by foreign investors willing to prop our markets up

they don't have "big" brains either, only "big" balls
