I apologize in advance for the glibness of this post - light on details but heavy on sentiment - for I had one too many black & tans light night. This will be one of the bloodies Marches we've seen in a long time. There still is no clarity on the extent of losses on balance sheets from...

I'm not saying this for shock value, but I honestly believe Apple is likely to return to year ago levels. There is just no catalyst moving it. The iPhone is an unknown quantity right now, and I think common sense is telling the world it is likely to not be the catalyst that the iPod was...

Joe, there is a joint plant operating in Fishkill, New York, between IBM and AMD. Lots of rumors about IBM buying AMD or providing mass liquidity for R&D.

You too. By the way, futures are bloody.

I'm not one to brag. Let's just agree that you don't have a fucking clue, piker.

Go long USD in about 3-6 months. Stay the hell away from the euro. Fed will have to start raising rates soon. They may cut some more before they reverse, but inflation and current account deficit will have to be deal with, and they will have to actually do something to shore up the dollar...

....inflate or die, for the US government. Devaluing the dollar is the only way they can service their current account deficit. Ahhh, the power of the printing press.

Fair point. Just pondering this over tonight, but given my level of conviction, I think cheap, deep out of the money calls are my preference. One other thing, and it's admittedly a digression, but somewhat related to the tenor of my point - lumber/building material stockyards are running so...

Not only that, and I have this on gospel, you can't even get construction loans from banks right now. I never remember this. Never. There were bad times where they'd loan you the money but put you through collateral hell, charge you heavy juice and use a fubar LTV ratio, but I never recall a...

No, I'll willingly eat crow. I have never made such a broad call as this one, but I'm also backing it up with intense put buying on select sectors. If I'm right, and the market takes a swan dive, I'll be hailed as a genius or lucky, or maybe with a few "anyone could have seen it coming."...

Hi Larry Kudlow, also known as stk_trdr. How's it hangin? You're laying off the coke, right? You stupid motherfucker - that list is a series of actual headlines over the last two days; not hallucinations.

Yes, the news is out now, but there the real consequences of money circulation slowing will not be a temporary and short-lived condition; it will be protracted because it will take a while for the shake out and rehabilitation of loan makers to be completed. Think of it as a forest fire that's...

Absolutely not. If you go long and win strong, kudos to you.

This will be driven by the fact that money stops circulating - at the level of the consumer, the banks, and businesses - a perfect storm. Consumers are paying down whatever debt that they can, if they can, they are walking away from mortgages, if they can't stay above water, they are cutting...

2-28-2008 Get out. Get he hell out of the market and go short. Forget volatility and trading. Just get out. There will be a vicious, swift correction in weeks, not months, as institutional finally lose any faith that the U.S. Central Bank can't deal with the problems we have. The Federal...

And the hits just keep on coming. 02/28/2008 * U.S. Economy Grew 0.6% in Fourth Quarter, Less Than Economists Estimated * Stocks in U.S. Tumble After GDP Trails Economists' Forecasts; Sprint Falls * Sprint Posts $29.5 Billion Loss, Eliminates Dividend, Borrows $2.5...

A price target is when an analcyst, oops, I mean analyst, looks at where the stock is currently priced, and then abitrarily and randomly picks a number out of his or her ass as to where it could theoretically be at some point in the future.

This is a hybrid of Bloomberg and AP articles from TODAY only. What do you think? Relevant or not? Confidence inspiring? * Japan's Production Falls Twice as Much as Expected as U.S. Slump Deepens * Bernanke Signals Fed Is Ready to Lower Rates Even as Inflation Accelerates...

I'm writing his name in on the ballot with a giant magic marker, after crossing out all the other lame ass candidates' names. I know they'll discard the ballot - so be it. The system is fucked, so fuck the system.

All you are is Larry Kudlow's mini-me. Good luck to you. You're going to need it.
