    Why was the lowering of the fund rates so powerful?

    Have you lost your mind? "Cry babies"? When banks tighten their lending standards to the consumer that's one thing, but when they virtually halt thier lending to one another it's a crisis. There are no bids for the bad debt that all too many banks, brokerages, insurance agencies and even...

    Damn, is it over..

    Here's my plan. If it has a p/e of 50 or over, I'll whack the bejesus out of it. You like my plan? I like my plan. All the high fliers being sold to meet hedgie redemption calls. Whack 'em.

    Barclays, GS to clarify quant losses this a.m.

    Throw $3B at this sinkhole, issue a PR, gap it up, and it's still the best short going. I wonder how Hank Greenberg is feeling this evening? LOL

    Ideas for the week

    Suri's charts look fine to me except that I'm not a Fibonacci person so I don't really understand them. Nice of him/her to put them up regardless. It will be interesting to see what happens with SHLD, especially after the retail numbers come out this morning, but then again you have WMT and...

    Is the Market Rigged?

    No, the Plunge Protection Team is the government. Read the article all the way through. I think you'll be surprised.

    Is the Market Rigged?

    No, it's just "actively managed" by (among others), Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson, a.k.a. Chairman of the Plunge Protection Team. http://biz.yahoo.com/seekingalpha/070812/44214_id.html?.v=1 lol Wow.

    This is the best time 2 buy ever

    Predictions are pretty much a fool's game given the fact that news always trumps charts. To say that the market is stronger than ever based on fundamentals is absurd. There are many reasons for the selloffs we've been having, but I think Paribas put it best when it noted the "complete...

    Motivational Quotes for Traders

    We are not bullish, we are not bearish, we don't care about the fundamentals or the wall street point of view. Stocks are just 3 or 4 letter vehicles that can make you as rich as you care to be. Trade what you see, not what you expect to see.

    How a self made top 5% trader views the world (ME)

    Chloride, aside from your little manifesto (which I happen to like), this is all self-indulgent crap. Show us how you're a top 5% trader. Any war stories or history to share? Any P/L to download? Anything at all other than your own laughable self-asssessment? Absolutely dead certain you were...

    A Very Blunt Question For You Pro's

    And what about the Pro's who shorted the market betting that sooner or later easy credit will blow up only to find they lose their bets due to the fed propping the market up??? Believe me when I tell you that it wasn't just the "pros" who saw that writing on the wall and shorted, for...

    Toll Brothers Unprecedented Weakness & Unmitigated Disaster

    TOL reports earnings on Wednesday. That should be interesting. Anyone care to place a wager beforehand?

    What caused the '87 Crash?

    Personally I've always thought it was a combination of Baker's comments and some sort of program selling glitch that took out all those stops. Who knows. But whoever mentioned the fact that current ARMS are set for October made an excellent point. When Wells Fargo made a unilateral move in the...
