Quote from optioncoach:
The markets are down for a reason. Cannot understand how people are looking at these drops like momentary dips. Cannot believe people are not taking it seriously that this year, Bear Stearns, Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, Lehman and now Merrill were pretty much on the brink of bankruptcy.
I mean I am not calling a Depression here but this is @#$%ing serious and the markets are going to be in trouble for quite some time. Wall Street is losing some big names who are getting bought out and sliced to nothing. Wall Street as a whole will emerge stronger from this purge but right now this is pretty serious.
