Plus he was saying with gold in the $700s that deflation was our problem and gold was not the right place to be.

People expected 900 dollars for mbs?

What's wrong with 1000 insolvent institutions if they all deserve to be insolvent? Seems like we don't want them to be in business anymore considering what royal screwups they really are. And don't tell me that would be a catastrophe. It already is a catastrophe and the sooner we weed out these...

Considering how badly the government screws up things they touch, I can't give them the benefit of the doubt on anything anymore, let anyone this big of a bailout. I hope it turns out okay, but the rational side of me cannot fathom how everything turns up roses. I wish I had your optimism.

Wow, looks like I have to move to France or Egypt to trade freely. Who would of thunk it? By the way, the fact that every country is doing this means that every country does not want true price discovery. And that can only mean one thing - that these stocks are still all extremely overvalued...

Bush = worst president ever.

USA to USAtrader: "Up yours shorty." Shorts are targets until there are none. Then the market crashes like there is no tomorrow.

Not only is it possible, but it is most likely probable given the pace and stupidity of government interventions lately.

I call major league BS on this statement. For a person who has been staunchly opposed to most of the crap coming from our broken government, your statement is a slap in the face. For a person who actually has some financial responsibility to not go out and buy a McMansion, your words are...

Everybody says this, but how about we just let all the sh*thole companies fail. We would feel the pain for sure, but our country could get back to being great again sooner rather than 20 years from now after we have been declared the United States of Crybabies.

That makes way too much sense to be ever implemented.

Actually, everyone should be exempted from this shorting rule.

So I buy some MSFT and I have to wait for it to go up 1% before breaking even? That would dampen short term trading for sure!

I know this lady is passionate about what she is saying, but in my opinion the homeowners that took on these mortgages are equally responsible for our current problems compared to the financial institutions. Everyone is to blame who tried to game the system for their own personal benefit/greed...

Oh we can, just the idiots in charge won't let the cleansing happen. The government's bailout actions will screw us for many years to come. Plus the market will crash anyway and then they will look even more stupid than they already are.

Gold is a great investment right now until the US government decides to confiscate all gold.

You know the government is just going to f*ck this up too. Why not let capitalism work and let all the sh*t companies who are proven to be failures go BK. All of this bailout crap is just going to kill this country for the next 10 years, just like Japan.

100% chance of the stupid powers that be extending the deadline to past Oct 2nd.

That'll be illegal soon too.

This article has some flaws. These securities are tradable entities, not houses. Mark-to-market makes sense whether he wants to believe it or not. Furthermore, his statement on the uptick rule is just more of the same bullsh*t everyone seems to be saying nowadays just because it is...
