    Refco Account Security

    It's a bd. What kind of receivables would they have. If you look at Lehman/enwv/Wood River, they sold the long for a quick, although substantial loss. By the way, ENWV is on the SHO list. In the case of Refco, my bet is they passed the hot potatoe hoping for more and more of the shorts to...

    Refco Account Security

    http://www.nypost.com/business/55204.htm Get out, and stay out. A dollar bounce isn't worth what's coming. These are naked short sales, probably marked to market. If one of more of these stocks blow up, 400 mm becomes a billion very fast. This is a serious, serious blowup, probably...

    OSTK ceo

    The Post will report in the morning that the 439mm are from failed hedge funds. This would be similar to the ENWV thing, where there is some clearing out there with 4mm shares of a stock the client bought at $25, going by the Lehman problem, that now trades at $13. There can't be any equity...

    Wood River all done, the NYTimes will report in the morning. Lehman already stuck for 9mm. Wood River owns 39% of ENWV. If they walked, no equity there. Enwv on the SHO list. What brillant clearing firm is stuck with this mess? Here comes the October crash.
