I find that very logical; sort of like the "if you want highway funding, then voluntarily lower the drinking age to 21..." Keep in mind the value of mortgages is $14 Trillion and the paper on those mortgages is $165 Trillion. The numbers just don't work. The $700 Billion is moot; it does...

Trading system is for trading. Separate system with separate feed for news, internet, e-mail, porn, etc. Who would want to clog up and infect a trading system with all that stuff?

That guy is good! I encourage everyone to listen to that tape regardless of what side of the fence you are on on this issue.

Either you have no balls or you're talking out your ass like Paulson. Step up to the plate and have some credibility and answer the poster's question please. S/he's only asking you to clarify what you mean in your statement. We've been hearing from Paulson for 2 weeks on "better then the...

They're hoping it will get them past the election. With the Republican party loosing so many seats this year, plus the top seat, they'll blame it on the Democrats when we have bread lines next year. They'll craft up some shit like "We had a plan but the Democrats got in there and ..." I'm a...

It is common for market makers to run instruments in the opposite direction of the fundamental on news. Let's see where we get an equilibrium on this dollar and from there, where everything else goes.

I suspected intervention back when the dollar turned. Folks on here said "If there was US Gov't intervention it would be done by FRBNY and they would disclose it." I just don't trust T-Dept or FRB or GW at this point. I believe there is intervention.

Does everyone agree that when this bailout bill passes the dollar crashes and commodities skyrocket? Why or why not? Thanks!

Buffet, Icahn and other whales make plenty of mistakes. We all think we're right when we put a trade on or we would not have put the trade on. Buffet is chasing soverign money just like he did with PetroChina. He made good money on that one. There is a philosophy at the top of the food...

None of these "experts" are disclosing their interest in the matter. If Warren Buffet was objective and honest, he would say "I just invested $5B in GS and I think the bailout is a good thing" just the same goes for Bill Gross of PIMCO who should say "I have been buying with both fists at $0.20...

The SDS and ES have different closing times. You're seeing change in SDS from 4pm to 4pm and ES from 5:00 to 5:00. Last night between 4pm and 5pm there was a 12 point move in the ES. Maybe that's what's causing the discrepency.

A recent study by the University of Mississippi has demonstrated that the quality of marijuana consumed in the United States has increased exponentially in recent decades. Theretofore financial companies' Boards of Directors who choose to smoke pot on the golf course are even more malfeasant in...

This thing seems to be drawing a penant. Any idea where it's going and why? Thanks, and good luck!

And my ass is a banjo; just put your ears right up to it and I'll play you a tune. PIMCO has been buying up these instruments at $0.20 and Bill Gross saying the Gov't should pay $0.65 and the taxpayer will make 7% on their money. PIMCO needs to disclose their interest in these matters...

1) That was not a crash. It was cleaning the idiots out of the market; said idiots those who paid 300xE for junk companies. 2) They're closing. Open your eyes. Food pantries across the nation are out of food because of increased demand. Tent cities are popping up. Suicide is way up from...

That $4 Trillion only got you a one and one-half day rally (last Thurs, Fri). We still have the same screwed up mess we had a year ago; it's just coming out in the wash now. I hope everyone made good money last Thursday and Friday 'cause you're gonna need it!

Here's reality: Republican agenda is to deregulate business and do everything else for business to the detriment of Joe working man. Deregulation allows leverage to skyrocket which is great in good times (look at GS share price 1999-2007). But we all know as traders what happens when your...

What's great about the internet (and television) is that you can TURN IT OFF IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT. I'm laughing my ass off. thanks Simon1080!

I'll second that. Bush corruption all the way.

And the idiot at the top of that list is none other then Hank Paulson from when he was CEO of GS and created all this shit. Put them in prison; all of them.
