    Why a Greek Default Would be Worse Than Lehman Brothers' Collapse

    here's my question, on the bull side, they said interest is very low, so traders are still hopeful. Now my problem is, there are quite a few good stocks that I want to buy, but this greece crisis is like a time bomb, that can go off at any time. Say I buy such and such stock, and the next...

    I don't know why it is always a sex scandal that attracts so many american to put this guy's face on headline news of virtually every single news network. But I do know this, if I were the guy who set him up, I would do a much more convincing job than the guy who did set him up

    what's the most popular S&P health care index?

    I'm hoping for a health care index at yahoo finance that has historical value in the past few years. But using their search engine, all I end up is ^ixv index , which does not have historical data. What do you guys use?

    German magazine Spiegel:Greece could reintroduce its own currency

    quite the contrary, we shouldn't let them jump ship, and re-finance their treasuries to 5 to 7 yr. Because in 5 yr., most countries would be in good shape and out of their current econ. situation. Then in 5 yr., we can AFFORD to let greece jump ship, because we can then absorb the damage in 5...

    What are the investment banks in US that underwrite the 5 yr. CDS of Greece? And is there a link to that no. today? Last time I check, it was sitting at 981.2, but that was a few mth. ago.

    will crude oil drops after QE2 ends or would Middle East ongoing crisis keep oil high

    in 1 of the daily market review report, some trader said, " The market is thinking oil prices may start to move lower as the dollar strengthens as QE2 nears its end. That is why you started to see comments by big investment firms calling for a pullback in oil prices." But Mr. Clueless...

    Why did S&P said there can be a DOUBLE dip recession in 2012?

    There is something that doesn't remotely add up. Dow is only -11.797% from the Oct. 2007 intraday high. And yet the US economy is having a very fragile recovery, w/ job losses still in the 8 to 12 million range, and will take 5 to 6 yr. to regain all those jobs. So how can the Dow be 5 to...

    Where does that thing Amanda Drury learn to speak English?

    How did CNBC find this thing? You can never heard what she's saying. She said today that "Saudi" leaks consumer info on Playstation etc., turns out she's trying to say "Sony" leaks consumers. Time and time again, you can't hear a thing of what she's saying. She's the only 1 who speak what...

    Why did S&P said there can be a DOUBLE dip recession in 2012?

    regardless whether BDI is accurate or not, it's still a micro index, not a macro one. Even if it's moving up, it could be govt. or business spending, which doesn't gauge American consumers and the state of US economy any1 else has any take why S&P said there is that scenario of recession...

    Why did S&P said there can be a DOUBLE dip recession in 2012?

    that means nothing. there is no co-relation from the 87 crash to the current econ. environment rate is not up yet, and even if they move up 0.25%, it will take a handful of those to tank growth, but there is no reason to believe the Fed. will do that I do agree that stimulus is drying up...

    Why did S&P said there can be a DOUBLE dip recession in 2012?

    Baltic never moves up since Mar. 2009, so using Baltic as a gauge is quite unfair. Unemployment no. has been dropping from the 500K per week to 400K per week. Housing inventory has been bad since Mar. 2009, and yet we have GDP growth and market has moved up since The above 3 gauge are...

    Why did S&P said there can be a DOUBLE dip recession in 2012?

    Now, I understand they said it's a pessimistic case, but still, they can't just create that unless they believe there is a reasonable chance of happening. But so far, this is only the 2nd source who said about a recession in 2012, w/ the former VP of Citi group came fwd. at CNBC saying the same...

    CNBC said Bill Dudley comments tanks the market, why?

    Ditto. Dudley's speech is at 10 am, the market didn't sell off until hours later. So that's why I don't understand the stuff from Maria Bartiromo, she keep saying it's Dudley's speech that tanks the market.
