      Bank Crisis: Where Were the Regulators?
      Mate you can have all the regulators and regulations in the world but if you have regulators that act like cheerleaders well this is what you get.

      How Much More Can Investors Take?
      Only the '87 Crash and the Great Depression saw such short term volatitlity in the markets. Think about it guys? Constant government intervention and manipulation are all that's preventing the market from crashing like it did then.

      Why I Bought AIG Last Week
      In early August Prudent speculations really like the look of Fannie Mae. Keep on pumping old boy and one of these days you might just get something right.

      Paulson and Bernanke Were Wrong on Lehman
      I don't agree with you. Wall Street built a skyscraper out of playing cards while the regulatory authorities watched and even applauded. For months the Fed has provided an ever widening range of facilities to keep that rotting edifice from falling over. This latest $700 billion bailout is a measure of their desperation. The only question is whether America wants to take the nasty medecine it so desperately needs in one fell swoop or suffer death by a thousand cuts.

      A Nation of Morons, Led by Idiots
      "A Nation of Morons, Led by Idiots". Greg,please, I don't know how you can say this. Take the nation's great leader, George W. Bush. You know he's got an MBA from Harvard. God knows what they taught him there. Maybe how to make water cress sandwiches and network with other members of the upper echelon of the American plutocracy. He's admitted on more than occasion that economics is not his strong suit.And as for the economy up until last week he would just repeat the one mantra, "the foundations of the US economy are sound"
      Now of course the important mission is to make sure the golden parachutes and richly deserved pay packets of the geniuses of Wall Street are protected from a kneejerk reaction to a few minor mistakes.

      Bank of America: 'Paulson Plan Benefits Mostly Goldman, Morgan'
      My understanding is that Paulson had to sell $600 million of Goldman Sachs shares so he could take up his government appointment and that he did so tax free.

      A Black Hole Nearly Swallows Wall Street
      Fantastic article, Tony. Maybe something good will come out of this if the sort of things Dodd is talking about actually happen; that the disgusting people who have created this abomination are held fully accountable instead of being bailed out once again.

      Cramer Also Believes Cramer Has a Branding Problem
      In defence of Cramer, I think he currently has something dead right. His latest call is "SELL, SELL,SELL"

      Bondholders Are Unjustified Big Winners in Treasury Plan - Hussman
      Good article but buyitcheap has put his finger on the reason they're so determined to protect the bondholders. America needs to borrow, what is it, $3 billion dollars each and every day and it all comes from overseas. If the interests ot those providing the money are not protected that vital source of finance will dry up very quickly and Hank and Ben know that. As America sinks deeper and deeper into debt so independence of action goes out the window.

      Financials Soar
      Does your Group ever bother to look at something other than these charts? The first two comments sum up their validity perfectly. Have you heard of fundamentals? Like the fact that virtually the whole of the American financial sector is hopelessly insolvent. Has it somehow escaped your notice that your wonderful chart would now show a massive vertical drop but for the fact that the Federal Government intervened with the mother of all bailouts. Do you actually make money out in the real world doing this sort of stuff? If you do well it just shows how stupid people are.

      Lingering Financial Concerns
      Mate just a few days ago the market was teetering on the brink of the precipice and it came within a hair's breathe of going over, saved by another gargantuan government bailout, money of course that will have to be borrowed from overseas. I just wonder what it would take to wipe that smirk off your face?

      Will BofA Cut Its Dividend?
      I am at a total loss to understand how Merrill Lynch will make any money in this brave new world. All the old BS money making games have either been sent to the dustbin or are now hugely reduced and he is going to pay the equivalent of $50 billion in BAC shares. How will this not be hugely dilutive to the company's earnings per share? Can someone please enlighten me.

      Capitalism: RIP
      Mate the Titanic is going down. They'll do anything and I mean anything to save the ship. Anyone with a brain should have seen this coming in August last year and now be sitting in a well provisioned lifeboat, watching this catasrophe unfold.

      Short Selling Is Not Evil
      The reason the powers that be are fighting tooth and nail to stop the share market from collapsing is that America is hopelessly in debt and needs countries like Singapore, China and the Arabs to continue to pour money into those basket case banks and into Treasuries. If the Market was to collapse, the money supply from overseas would dry up and that would lead to something far more diabollical. Without the constant intervention of the government the share market would be far lower than it is today. But how long can they hold reality back?

      Some Thoughts on "The Plan"
      Well I think probably the less Bush says on the subject, the better. As he freely admits, "ecomonicks" is not his strong suit. In fact, the only thing he really knows is "the foundations of the US economy are sound". And that line has sort of lost its zing of late.
