    Hedge Fund suicide Watch

    It will only be a matter of time...one at a time, take a number, please. There is enough on the plate for one day today, but as soon as today is digested and 'dealt with', no doubt some compromised HF's will begin to 'get the call', along with the word getting out, with comensurate...

    Want to bet....

    BB and HP are just now discussing the merits of cutting rates... to negative 1.00, (-1.00%). What the hey! If 2.00% is good, then paying borrowers to borrow must be better! If it worked for Japan, it must be good. I say we go one better, and pay borrowers. Sounds crazy, buit it just...

    There is no such thing as price action.

    We interupt this regularly scheduled thread to bring you this bulletin: This just in! By this point, I think it can be agreed by all, even the OP, that in fact PA does indeed exist, and in fact, in many forms. Price action, has to exist in any and every instrument that trades. Any...

    "Unless something is settled, it's going to be a bloodbath Monday"

    It is any wonder they work like hell to defer marking down values on positions held? They are feeling the flames a-lickin'. If they are indeed levered at near 30-1, and if their positions are indeed losing value, and if they have indeed deferred marking them to a true value, at some point...

    There is no such thing as price action.

    As I see it, the OP is questioning whether or which came first, the chicken or the egg, and has come to the conclusion, (erroneously, I may add), that neither of the two, the chicken nor the egg, even exist! Bravo!

    Bank Run Monday???

    Could the Fed be about to shut down a major 'thrift', like WM this weekend? And if so, will we then see (a) nationwide bank run(s)?? Warren Buffett's BH just exited the bank insurance business, at his express direction. Would be pinpoint timing if the above scenario were to transpire.

    keep the job, trade your capital as you also maintain your book of clients, establish a track record, get 100% payout (and risk) on your own capital. when you have a consistent track record and methodology, get licensed and transition some of your better clients into managed accounts.

    U.S. Plans to Seize Fannie and Freddie

    looks like the Russians, Chinese, and Arabs will be 'openin' up shop' here soon, and we can get our mortgages financed from them! It's either them, or any hedge funds left standing. Where's George Bailey when we need him?? At first blush, I thought this may somehow be bullish, (and it...

    while all the above posts are true, the skf seems to be in the process of losing it's upside punch...if the market rebounds anywhere in this zone, the skf may be poised to make news lows for it's move, in fairly rapid fashion. In other words, possible limited upside, (relative to its prior...
