To me this looks like an identical situation, but with significantly less potential liability forthcoming from anything related to Fukishima. Just my opinion.

Just imagine if Venezuela was defaulting.... their bonds already trade there, but their economy is larger. 13 US States have larger economic output.

Half of all deposits in the USA are w/ BAC. more than 2/3 households deal w/ BAC. BAC has had the Treasury and FED over a barrell since August 07. Ummm FDIC has not enough assets to cover a good size regional let alone BAC. Figuring on the demise of BAC is fantasy. This is different...

Absolutely hysterical! And true.

Also it's being rolled out in the NE right now, only. It's smart for their full service brokers too, because when people get tired of trading for themselves or want to get advice they can migrate over to full service and get money managers, insurance, mutual funds, bonds etc. Makes that full...

IGD, CHY, CHI, JPG, JLA... pretty conservative. You're looking for RTU possibly.

the day the Mayan calendar ends ..............

nah! I suck at poker. I have no patience for it and can't take it seriously. It's a game and I feel sorry for my friends in a way so I don't mind if they take my money (this is real subconcious- I have no feelings about losing in that sport. I can't take it that seriously. Give me...

We all must laugh because we're all in this together... and we love to take a bath. Just a line from a Phish song (Bathtub Gin) that always resonates to remind many of us to watch the vix and move against trends when they become too obvious. Just a friendly reminder. Don't forget to...

hgt, pvx are heavy on NG IIRC

Are they still pumping GTW? They really didn't seem to want to give up on them or CSCO. I don't blame the mag itself, just some of their more persistent people that they take ideas from. If I remember correctly they planted Wagonner on the front w/ a nice article right when GM peaked at 50...

J Crew just priced tonight. The talk was 15-17 and it priced at 20 (good for them). I would advise any and all speculative type stock shoppers to see if you can't get some at 21.5 or better tomorrow at the open. I think 24 could be possible before settling back down at 22 or so by the end of...

here's the website for all the rogue/hedge talk you could ever read: http://nakedshorts.typepad.com/nakedshorts/

SFL is probably a better bet in the sector because their dividend is pretty solid. If rates can average 25k then they should be fine and currently rates are averaging in the 50 to 60k range. Probably not as much potential for upside on the quick but you shouldn't lose anything from this...

A split won't adjust any actual value. But it makes it more appealing to institutions that don't allow for buying anything under ten or five/share. Any split will affect options by giving all sorts of screwy strikes until all the leaps have expired. For reference check out all the strikes for...

This stock has taken its quarterly bloodletting and is back on the move up. It's hard to buy after a 2 dollar move up from recent lows but it seems to be chopping up in a quarterly cycle. It should break above 43 by early june before another sharp sell off on any news regarding earnings...

The sector was downgraded by somebody today, early. Can't remember who. Seems like somebody trying to be smart and way out ahead of a curve. I'm short the 7.5 puts for Jan '08 and the contracts were all sold for 2.55 to 2.45/contract. Pity so much negativity is still built in because those...
