Jim Rogers: Citigroup is a buy at $5

Quote from Bogan7:

The guy states he is SHORT Citi so I really dont think he is long calls around the current share price but then what would I know you muppet

Mr Bogan.

I NEVER SAID HE WAS SHORT ON CITI.

JIM ROGERS HIMSELF SAID CITI IS GOING DOWN SOUTH LIKE THE TITANIC. i'm not sure he said he was short.

MY QUESTION TO YOU MR BOGAN IS THIS:- IF YOU WERE JIM AND SAID WHAT HE SAID ON THE FINANCIAL NEWS, WOULD YOU BUY PUTS OR BUY CALLS?? OR SELL PUTS OR SELL CALLS?

DO YOU THINK YOUR BRAIN CAN MANAGE A SENSIBLE REPLY TO THIS POST AND TO MY OTHER POSTS TO YOU without spewing out insults?

This is what Jim Rogers said on Citi:

" "Technically, it's bankrupt, with gigantic off-balance-sheet derivatives positions whose value it cannot possibly know""


The above statement by Jim Rogers could send the stock tumbling and he would be a buyer of cheap PUTS on the way down and buyer of calls on the way UP and he would make a killing would he not?:D

It seems you too have waisted 2 yrs mixing with Mr Bogie and company.

Where can i see your trades and Bogies trades for 2007? I want to see if your have put some meat on your posts/trades or are you guys just paper traders for many yrs trying to impress the members at elite!?

Have you called me a muppet yet like the others have??

Happy new year Sir!


Regards
Sir Muppet

Muppet,

Read my posts. There's not many of them over the course of my 2 years plus on elitetrader. Most of my posts focus on trading, data feeds, etc (the real meat and potatoes of trading). I do indeed trade full time and actually pay my bills with my earnings. I don't on the other hand join this site and start a pissing contest over individual stocks. Good luck on your C trades. You are going to need it.
 
why not short the shares at the convertible price and buy the convertible paper to get a free look at the downside....

or short the leap puts at the convertible strike and buy the convertible paper....

so OK you're on the hook for the common dividend but you make it up on the convertible coupon....

and if they cut the common dividend you put the diff. in your pocket....

the risk is the whole system blows up and you aren't paid for your short common....

another risk is you have to have enough juice to cover the common short until you can convert the paper or sell out....

it's why I dont buy into companies that have a habit of issuing convt. pref. paper...

pisses me off....

BTW. I dont trade on luck. My trade on Citi is limited loss to the premiums paid from a small %tage on 2007 profits.

Happy and prosperous new yr to you!
