If you had ever worked for Chinese you would not be asking. What I am saying is that MS rainmakers are not going to answer to people who have to know about and control the minutia of everything. They are going to walk. As for the Chinese miracle I suggest you look at a chart of US housing...

Sounds like some private equity players are beginning to realise that they too made some bad investments and now are claiming their Federal bailout entitlement.

"Within a very short period of time, you will some of the high and mighty with cuffed hands shielding faces" Unlikely, that would be tantamount to justice. these people are rich and powerful i.e above the law in the New America. Any hearings will become just another thing that is too...

If a vacum forms in a market somebody else expands to fill it. So derivative xposure aside, no big deal if a few I-Banks go down, the survivors wll expand to take their place.

George Dufus Bush followed by McSenile. No thanks. Give me that other guy I can't stand, anything but more Republicanism. The average overweight propaganda swallowing moron that now comprises 51% of the electorate probably won't get his house, widescreen, SUV, boat and Lazeeboy reposessed...

I can't believe how these Banks are whining and running for protection now that what they do to others is happening to them. Makes me want to vomit, seriously. They shoiuld be shown as much sympathy as they show people on the recieving end of naked shorting/FTD only made possible by I-Banks...

The assets will go down in the elevator that night and not go up in the elevator the next morning if the Chinese have any say in running, let alone actually managing MS.

What happens and what is recorded as what happened may not always be the same thing. Think about it, are the newspapers and mainstream media be a good guide to what is happening now as it is happening? Will they be a good guide for those seeking to discover what happened?

What passes for 'economic policy' is just redirection of resources to favoured companies and industries. i.e the economy and regulatory environment is run for the sole purpose of benefitting the elites companies and industries. If the Banana Republic has an arms industry then it will start wars...

Pretty much sums it up. “What people still are missing is that every growth story of the last five to ten years has been based on credit. China, commodities, real estate, hedge funds, everything was a capital-intense endeavor. Global growth was the symptom of the credit bubble,”...

Private Equity bailout?

Sounds like just another of those endless LEH rumours designed to bolster price/create liquidity to dump into.

He is saying "trust me" which I believe can be translated as "someone has to lose/pay and its not going to be me, so that just leaves you"

Sept. 15 (Bloomberg) Paulson said. ``The American people can remain confident in the soundness and resilience of our financial system. Our banking system is a safe and sound one.'' The outright LIES are just unbelievable. Yeah, I know he can't tell it how it is, but this level of deception?

Bush also said "...our financial institutions are strong" on the day BSC was taken over. He is so out of touch he was probably unaware of this when making this statement. Since then FNM, FRE, LEH, MER, and pending AIG WM. Such STRENGTH! Anybody who listens to anything Bush, Paulson, Bernanke...

Any innocent customers insurance claims should be paid out of the assets of its executives.

Unbelievably he doesn't think this has anything to do with him as he had already left the Fed. The sooner the senile old lizard slinks away to die alone and discredited the better. Right now $100,000/per dinner speaking engagements must be getting thinner so he has to shoot his mouth off. His...

Won't go to $0. Uncle Bens favourite nephews GS, JPM, and BAC all hold around $100m of the stock, with C holding $80m and MER $70m, so even though the Govt would like to allow an I-Bank to fail to dispel proleteriat murmurs of socilaism for the rich, it won't be this one, even though it has not...

If there are big blocks going through it is because someone wants you to see them, or doesn't care that you see them e.g. because it's "game over" (e.g. the pit fading paper at chart points) or because they don't have time to screw around. You would be surpised how small a team of...

Phew, I can take my tin hat off now. I'm not the only one thinking they are timing things in line with critical chart points. Same with Chinese Government, Through Train is on, no it's off, no it's on again.
