    No, Dendreon options have absolutely nothing to do with November earnings. They have absolutely everything to do with October Interim Results from their prostate cancer treatment, Provenge. Reply

    I can't imagine anyone shorting WYNN, LVS, MGM, BOYD gaming. These stocks could take off anytime and have been going up for the last 3 weeks. All four are well managed companies and well capitalized. Reply

    The Worsening Retail Climate [view article]
    Fast forward to July 2008 SKS stock is worth less than half it's 52 week highs. I live right down the street from South Coast Plaza a world class destination mall and the numbers are dismal. This area of Orange County was ground zero of the sub prime debacle. The fake riche' shoppers are gone their losing their houses. Luxury is keeping your job and having money to fill your tank to get to work. California is undergoing a big shake up across all sectors. I'm laughing at all the high paid politically correct upper management now. I'm sure corporate earnings and store numbers suck and their worried about how much longer they'll occupy their cushy offices (Barbie collections and all) before the transfer. Thank god I went back to the small business model I thrive in and the numbers prove it. Talent is never recognized through the layers of political fluff and ass kissing. Reply

    Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [view article]
    Dear Eli, Rep. Bart Stupak is right when he says "Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are manipulating oil markets...and they may be doing something illegal". I read the report that the economist, Jeffrey Harris, of the Commodities Futures Trading Commission, gave to a Congressional Committee and his report was terrible. The CFTC has either not been doing their job or the CFTC has been lying to Congress and the American people.

    In another report ( which can be accessed through an article written by Anthony Schneider titled "Greenberger's Testimony-I Banks Control The Energy Market", on SeekingAlpha published June 4, 2008) you can learn how this is being done and what Congress needs to do to stop it.

    "WE ARE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR OIL" Greenberger says...and I agree with him.

    If enough people read Greenberger's report and complain to their Senators and Congressman then the investigations will start and the result will be similar to what happened in the Enron scandal...people will go to jail and oil prices and commodity prices will come down.

    This trouble started with the Enron loophole, around 1999, and has cheated us just like Enron was caught cheating us.

    Please help to stop it Eli. Thanks.

    Another great summary of factoids in the battle between fear and greed. Fear wins today - the $1.7 T Q1 loss in household assets, a new view of construction loan exposure, and a 5.5% unemployment rate (reported elsewhere). Oil surging. oy vey!!!

    is the stat correct, 3 out of 1000 homes in Q1 repossessed?
    that's 12 out of 1000 a year (1.2 per 100 per year). and since this is cumulative, over 5 years, that's 6 out of 100 or in layman's terms, 1.2 out of 20. holy sh^t !!!! that's pretty f'ing scary !!!

    About Iraq on the Record
    Presented by Rep. Henry A. Waxman
    On March 19, 2003, U.S. forces began military operations in Iraq. Addressing the nation about the purpose of the war on the day the bombing began, President Bush stated: “The people of the United States and our friends and allies will not live at the mercy of an outlaw regime that threatens the peace with weapons of mass murder.” Two years later, many doubts have been raised regarding the Administration’s assertions about the threat posed by Iraq.
    Prepared at the direction of Rep. Henry A. Waxman, Iraq on the Record is a searchable collection of 237 specific misleading statements made by Bush Administration officials about the threat posed by Iraq. It contains statements that were misleading based on what was known to the Administration at the time the statements were made. It does not include statements that appear mistaken only in hindsight. If a statement was an accurate reflection of U.S. intelligence at the time it was made, it was excluded even if it now appears erroneous. For more information on how the statements were selected, see the full methodology. The Iraq on the Record Report is a comprehensive examination of these statements.
    Topics of the Statements. The 237 misleading statements can be divided into
    four categories. The five officials made 11 statements that claimed that Iraq
    posed an urgent threat; 81 statements that exaggerated Iraq’s nuclear activities; 84
    statements that overstated Iraq’s chemical and biological weapons capabilities;
    and 61 statements that misrepresented Iraq’s ties to al Qaeda.
    Statements by President Bush. Between September 12, 2002, and July 17,
    2003, President Bush made 55 misleading statements about the threat posed by
    Iraq in 27 separate public appearances. On October 7, 2002, three days before the
