    Margin Call - huh

    I feel your pain as most traders have been where your at at one time or another. There is no bargining, as a matter of risk if you where to ask me to not sell out for an extra day would make me want to sell you out sooner not later. You make it very clear that you dont have anything behind...

    Pelosi says "Party on Wall Street is Over"

    You are 100% right and I hope your 100% wrong. While in some peoples mind it may not be a perfect system The free market is the best method overall and in long term as well to decide what someone should be paid. Oh how great it would be to change our system so that those that feel they...

    "The time to buy is when blood is running in the streets."

    I know there is a lot of doom and gloom on the TV and that it appears the wheels may come off the apple cart but I cant help to think we are only about 22% off the all time top. I would not believe that there is blood on the streets without another 5000 point drop in the dow as a minimum...

    Tax on Trades Should Be Part of Rescue Plan, Some Democrats Say

    Why do we have an electoral college?? In simple terms the founding fathers didn't think even the average white man who owned property was smart enough and knew the issues well enough to actually pick the president(the top of the social order at the time and a requirement to vote). They...

    Why do they have to finish the BAILOUT before Asia's Monday open?

    Actually I think maybe Chinese as we would not want to offend the ones we need to borrow from. Our kids sure are going to enjoy paying all this back

    Weinstein Trading and Fading

    Was scalping WM last night when during aftermarket trading it was halted due to the FDIC taking it over. As the Feds usually take over banks on a Friday I thought I would be ok. I was not. Opened back up today much lower and I dumped what I had. No flat with WM - 4000 Scalped WB (much the...

    Right, people who are not trained with guns call them clips and those that are trained call them magazines I just bought some more guns to add to the collection. The really cool thing about guns and ammo is that they dont go down in price and sometimes they go up a lot. So if they just...
