      Financial Crisis and the Top 5 Handset Stocks
      Just commented on another article how much I like apple down here, with big cash position to boot. I may have to take a put position for the earning though, as good as they are it's never enough it seems.

      25 Cash Cows to Ride Out the Storm- Barron's
      I just love Apple down here, I'm more for big cash position than dividends, and I'll probably 2x put the earnings release (that worked last time). Maybe do that with a few this season, I know Fast Money doesn't want to get in front of the GE release this week. Everyone worries but why not pick the stocks you like and short the general market, or take a put position when you need it.

      Friday Outlook: Commodities, Emerging Markets
      It's getting chilly up here. Great charts, Scarey too. Even Gold and Oil got hammered, not good, especially if your Canadian or Australian.

      Five Reasons RIMM Will Continue to Fall
      NOK, why not use Motorola. Sure the smartphones will mature someday, but it's still a bit early to do this comparision. NOK is suffering because they didn't keep up with Rimm and Apple.

      Moving the Deck Chairs on the Economic Titanic
      Why does Wall Street have to over react to everything, this is like a child throwing a tantram and breaking all the toys, (Tech, Metal, Consumer goods,utilities,piggy banks). What happen tommorrow, do they take their ball and go home. I guess we'll have to let them sulk for a while.

      Why I Bought AIG Last Week
      I like Leh's comment, these stocks are like long term calls, you might even say out of the money. They may expire worthless, but if the don't you could have a winner, trick is not to put much money into option positions, treat it like a lottery ticket from casino (stock market) winnings, if you have any.

      Stock Prices Could Move 'Faster Than the Speed of Light'
      Agreed, Crazy, as delicious as Financial stocks were today, there were about 300 million LEH reasons traded Friday to leave a very bad taste in almost every traders mouth.
      Who didn't think LEH was worth more than Bear Stern's $10. Oh, that would be Paulson. NOW after that little lesson is a couple of days old, Banks are worth 10% more in the final hour of trading, OK , I'll back up my truck, right after Paulson. And why the Hell would anyone even buy gold when banks are so cheap ?

      PS Don't forget to hit Sell after you hit Buy, or is it Buy after you hit Sell, I can't even remember what I hit at 3:59...I really need afterhours trading so I don't have so long to remember...

      Some Housing Schadenfreude
      One clarification HGD.to is gold miners down and HED.to is oil companies down. HBD.to is Bullion down. HOD.to is Oil down.
      Also some of the more spector oriented funds are very low volume.
      Just Canadian banks interest you it's HFD and HFU, which have decent volume. HMD.to has very little volume, but maybe have the most vulnerable companies to a global slowdown.

      HXD.to - TSE down Canadian etf, HGD.to Gold down , HAD.to agriculture down, HMD.to miners down to name a few. They may be what your looking for if you think Canada is in trouble. I think HGU.to gold up vs OIL down HOD.to is an interesting play, but I'm really a gold bug anyway. HXD.to would increase when the TSE top companies fall, good tool for Canadians worried about both banks and commodities.

      Short-Term Correction in the Commodities Bull Market
      Ok I'm a gold bug and I also love to short gold stocks, have the best of both worlds, hold the physical and short the paper stuff is the theme I like the best. Almost every time gold drops 3% the stocks drop 6% sometimes 10% (don't believe me look at todays numbers for GDX and GLD, the reverse when thinks go up), think about that for a moment. Cheers, Brian.(disclosure: long and short)

      Equity Benchmark: A Climb Too High
      Everyone up here is in denial as well. Why should our economy suffer just because the USA is suffering? well, All the Gold and Oil won't save us either. Short everything, but mostly Banks and Gold and I'm a gold bug, imagine.
