It's ILLEGAL to discuss LEH's troubles

Quote from flytiger:

There were really tough rumors out of Europe. I haven't seen them in print, but they were in internal notes of at least one major firm. Einhorn gives a lecture in front of 1000 people. He obviously is short to where he needs to be. THEN, HE MAKES THE REPORTERS SIGN THAT THEY WON'T RELEASE A STORY UNTIL NOON THE NEXT DAY!!!! That gives his 'peers' two and a half hours to crawl all over LEH.

I have no sympathy for LEH, or GS, or any of them. In my mind, it is their quest for all the wealth that has killed the Capital Markets. But these tactics were what Amir Elgindy did. Where does it stop. Can I call your wives and tel them you're screwing around just because I think it, or I don't like it? Then, can I call the local paper and put it in there?

These punks are running rampant. CNBC is helping them, and it is about all to come crashing down. The SEC won't do it. The self regs won't.

See the arrests yesterday? I heard it is the "tip of the iceberg". Can't wait. May start drinking again just to celebrate. then, maybe talent and ethics will have a chance.

Fucking punks.

I heard some of those rumors out of Europe concerning LEH. THEY ARE NOT TO BE REPEATED, AT ANY COST! THE FINANCIAL AUTHORITIES (SEC, etc.), WILL NOT ALLOW THIS VULNERABLE PORTRAYAL OF LEH'S PROBLEMS. SO DON'T EVEN TRY IT!

Interesting tell today. Einhorn was on CNBC, and the stock ticked up. You think that's a crowded trade??? If I had my druthers, I'd be long. But I hate these companies. So I don't trade them because of the emotion.

Fuld is not Allied Captial. Lil' Davie may have bit off a bit more than he 'll care to chew. Maybe we 're witnessing the end of Greenhorn, or Brownshoe, or what ever he calls that mess. Can we short it, spread rumors, and then go on Television and talk about it? Greenshoe Capital, that is?
 
And regarding Einhorn on CNBC, did you see Bartiromo? OMG is she on the Lehman payroll?

She was combative as hell against Einhorn and pretty much calling him a liar on his assertion of the dollar amount of CDO's on Lehman's books. She had no facts, numbers or detail as always. Einhorn was very professional and had his ducks in a row.

Einhorn has been down this path before with Allied Capital and he knows his s***. I'm half way through his new book.

Bartiromo was trying to skewer Einhorn for ratings points but came across as a complete buffoon.

The woman has no humility, a real embarassment to the industry.

Couldn't agree more. Felt badly for Einhorn, she certainly had a huge bug up her ass.
 
Can't have people going around insinuating that insolvent banks are insolvent.

As we all know the crisis was contained all along, if it even existed in the first place it is nearing its end and there is no recession. Also US has a strong dollar policy.
