ABK down $1.30 And Thornburg Mortgage (TMA) down 58% to $3.66 today! And these guys are getting margin calls on their AAA prime mortgages? :(

$19.85 +2.30 Nice bounce off the $14.00 intra-day low on Friday. :)

Since when does Intel sell to the retail customer? How does this even effect us?

NewEgg had the E8400 for only $225 last month. Now at $239. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037 :)

It's still there as of 2:38 AM EST 3/3/08. :)

:D :D :D

Excellent post Pabst. I was kind of thinking the SAME thing. A total panic job.

Anyone got any good muni ideas? :D

MF is probably a great buy down here. The action in the commodities markets will ensure that they continue to do huge clearing volume, despite today's S&P downgrade from BBB+ to BBB. Six of the company's executive officers bought roughly 180,000 shares of stock today. That comes to $3...

You must be new to the world of commodities, eh? :D MF Global is based in Bermuda. They also have offices in London, NYC, Paris, Mumbai, Singapore, Sydney, Toronto, Tokya, Hong Kong, Tapei, and Dubai. The company was started by James Man in London in 1783. It was renamed in 1869 to E D...

You need to realize just who Mann-Financial is. The fact that the CME made some rather supportive "comments" regarding MF is quite telling.

Excellent. Glad to hear it! It is always good for the soul to get away from the trading screen . . . gives some good perspective too!

Just eyeballing things here, looks like we have retraced roughly 62% of the move in the Dow Jones from the 12,150 low up to the 12,750 high. http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/Favorites.CServlet?obj=ID2681385&cmd=show[s132046508]&disp=O

Welcome back Mup! :)

It's difficult to fade Warren and his "coal-play" in Burlington Northern, but if the economy is in the process of "tanking" this should not be good for the rails, at all. As it is, 2007 was not a great year for them statistically speaking in regards to carloads, traffic, etc. And that is a...

You might want to be aware of how the "aolload.exe" can suck up all of the resources of your CPU. This happens to me every time I "exit" from AIM. My processor gets overloaded running at nearly 100%. http://www.techworld.com/security/blogs/index.cfm?blogid=1&entryid=636

Looks like the collapse of "Enron". There's probably some significant meaning there . . . And he sees it every time he goes off to work in the morning. Probably why he's been such a successful trader. :)

Where do you see in the article that MF is blaming the losses on "volatility" in the wheat market? You clearly could use a course in "Reading Comprehension".

I have been a registered Republican for quite awhile ( but don't always vote that way in the General Election ). I grew up during the Reagan years here in California. In any event, there will be an issue with McCain and that is his health. The man has had cancer not once, but TWICE and...

Gorgeous area of the country . . . Westport and Southport overlooking Long Island Sound. Can't beat the juke-box at the "Horse-Shoe" pub in Southport. Small yacht harbor and a Main Street that lasts about 100 yards. Perfect area for a hedge-fund.
