This article is full of urgency. The wrirter has fallen into forgetting that the crises took years to be created, and politicians, Wall stree regulatores and banking pals shouls simply be hung, along with George. That is an urgent matter. My best to Laura, who is palnning the Christmas list for cookies.]]>

So where is your outrage at the bailout?]]>

By the way, your analysis completely ignored the price action of Friday's market, which gapped up at the open and failed to hold! In reality, a 5-min intraday view of Friday was less than encouraging for the bulls!

The fact of the matter is that this $1Trillion bailout boondoggle has the vast majority of investor/traders more than just 'nervous and skeptical'!
I will suggest that the true 'contrarians' for the most part remained on the sidelines during Friday's panic buying and did some cautious nibbling on energy plays today.
While there may well be some technical and emotional indications for broad buying into the markets right now, the are NO fundamental ones, and that renders any broad buying now an investment strategy based solely on hope and prayers...
No thanks!]]>

Take a good look at the trends and remeber when the do all software programs were let to the thinking unattended.
Then apply the same logic to the over extention of credit in the housing market.
Software programs calculate odds and work with simple math. They do not think, they do not measure emotional distress, and they do not make mistakes untill they reach a memory overflow.
Good article, and some good coments bar the political bashing. I bet some of you people never make a mistake and have always been right all your life.
At least some steps in any direction away from total financial collaspe is better than standing still in a panic and not doing anything.
It sounds courageous and brave to bash on someone else for anothers mistakes but, what would you do in the same situation?
Some of the blogers give me the impression they skipped third grade when the teach was talking about the checks and balance system in our government.

Our kids kids will remember -- bush and paulson --- modern day criminals. Lining their pockets, their friends pockets till the day they have but two classes -- wealthy and poor. ]]> This Is Not "the Big One" http://seekingalpha.com/article/96324-this-is-not-the-big-one?source=feed#comment-259612 259612 Fri, 19 Sep 2008 18:57:50 -0400 This Is Not "the Big One" http://seekingalpha.com/article/96324-this-is-not-the-big-one?source=feed#comment-259605 259605 Fri, 19 Sep 2008 18:27:24 -0400 This Is Not "the Big One" http://seekingalpha.com/article/96324-this-is-not-the-big-one?source=feed#comment-259571 259571 Fri, 19 Sep 2008 17:33:51 -0400 This Is Not "the Big One" http://seekingalpha.com/article/96324-this-is-not-the-big-one?source=feed#comment-259562 259562 Fri, 19 Sep 2008 17:24:00 -0400 This Is Not "the Big One" http://seekingalpha.com/article/96324-this-is-not-the-big-one?source=feed#comment-259484 259484 Fri, 19 Sep 2008 16:11:46 -0400 This Is Not "the Big One" http://seekingalpha.com/article/96324-this-is-not-the-big-one?source=feed#comment-259308 259308 Fri, 19 Sep 2008 14:06:14 -0400
The trickle down will be a tsunami of debt on the taxpayer, a devalued dollar and higher prices...]]>

When queried about why I became a steadfast Democrat, I hope I have the same conversation with a young Republican neighbor, just so I can make the statement: "I remember Bush."

God bless you Louie, and please forgive me my past sins and doubting you.

Author, I sincerely hope you're holding Morgan Stanley stock. A friggin pile of it. Errors like yours just add gasoline (even at $4 a gallon) to this flaming market. I can forgive mistakes.....not this one. ]]>

I put it in Goldman Sacks, Merril Lynch, Wachovia, AIG Insurance to let my retirement grow and live my last few years in peace and security!
I really love the President. He's the Best Ever.
Right After Hoover !]]>
