    Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley made bank holding companies by Fed

    It means my XLF calls are in the money now. Never doubt the will of Socialist Capitalists to hold up the system, especially when you live in a 50 room mansion and have hand waiters. The leverage would have disappered anyway, if they could have survived. But now, like the previous poster...

    IBKR is on the list

    All these 'traders' are complaining about the short selling ban . If you remember back to the week after Bear died, the rumormongering shorts, as opposed to legit shorts, went after Penson and MF Global. That would affect everybody. I see no other way to sort this mess out, get the rumor...

    Economic Warnings from Patrick Byrne

    Jeez, I'm glad to hear you say that. Some pretty smart, wealthy people are telling me it's too late. And it may be. But I see Buffett saying tonight he'd do the bailout if he were there. Gross is talking his book on CNBC. What we've wanted is for heads to roll. If you know anything about...

    Economic Warnings from Patrick Byrne

    Oh, it'll get plenty ugly in the streets. Plenty ugly. How would you like to have been screaming for how many years, and nobody listened. Now, I have to suffer with everybody else. My wife said, "will we ever have anything'. My response was, that it's not our call anymore. But the...

    Flytiger vindicated - proof of a genuine short-selling conspiracy at last

    don't even pay attention to those guys. They're all the same wise asses with all the answers. Answer me this. If they're all so smart, how'd we get here? And whent the public takes to the streets, do they expect the local police to lay their lives down to save their sorry asses? Dr...

    Economic Warnings from Patrick Byrne

    If you're so inclined, Digg this for us. The Deepcapture guys want the hits, so this shows up. I don't know what the plan is, but I know they're working their tails off, even though no one is particularly optomisitic. Thanks. And if you don't, just shut the fuck up. I'm not in the mood...

    Terrorism on Wall St??? Barry Ritholtz

    It was the beginning. It was the easiest, most agregious and the easiest to stop. It was unfair,a nd illegal, and a corrupt SEC let it go because in 2005, they said it would disrupt the systemif they called the fails in. And btw, they haven't done anything about it yet. Not till tomorrow and...

    It's starting to unwind!!!

    I really resent everybodies negative shit pushing my negative shit off the pages. I was negative first, and most, and I demand my negative shit get the negative attention it deserves. Besides that, your negative shit is much more negative than my negative shit. That just ain't right...

    An Open Letter to Warren Buffett.....

    I don't recall saying it was. But when these people take to the streets with weapons, maybe they'll get some attention from the likes of Sally Quinn, who right now is thinking about what to wear for cocktails. Nothing wrong with that, but shouldn't you earn it first? EARN, being the operative...

    An Open Letter to Warren Buffett.....

    it's all about confidence now. It's like being in a foxhole. Everyone around you is dead. And the box crackles. Your Company Commander calls and say........ "you're doing great kid. Keep it up. We're winning." And if my intuition, evolved over years of screaming in the forest is any...
