Goldilocks has effected a "soft landing" in the Cayman Islands where she opened an off shore account that's short the U.S. markets. As for Larry Kudlow, he's a brain-damged zealot whose "greatest story" incessantly told bordering on the delusional.

GS has been known to short their own stock.

http://blogs.wsj.com/marketbeat/2007/11/09/four-at-four-cdo-losses-who-us/?mod=yahoo_hs The JPM and BAC tidbits posted on "The Fly on the Wall" just before the market closed Friday so I sold GS and bought a few puts.

"A time-honored tradition among governments has been to release bad news late on Friday, ensuring it ends up only in the Saturday newspaper, the least-read paper of the week (back when people did such things like read newspapers). But J.P. Morgan, viewed as one of the more prudent when it came...

So true. Unless you shorted it in 1999 when it was trading around $120 or so, YHOO is right up there with MSFT as one of the least interesting stocks trading. Waste of commissions.

A lot of high fliers sold off today. Bitch slapped by BIDU, personally....rumors of secondary, profit-taking, yada, yada...yowch. Triple witching's always tough.

>CLICK< Buy GS 20 $190 calls 2 seconds after hearing "...cut 50 points..." If only I'd had A.S.'s clairvoyance. Good call. $$$$$$$$$$$$

It's interesting that BSC is selling off on LEH's news and that GS has almost no response at all. It's almost as though they're expecting an afternoon selloff.

Completely agree.

Foreclosures are up 100% from last month, but BBY is raising guidance. Tell me how that makes sense. Screw the mortgage payment, let's go get a Wii. ??
