    • When Hedgies Attack: Morgan Stanley Drops 40% on Rumors [view article]
      wallstreetto has a point, many financials are going down under their own weight, but the article is referring to hedgies attacking stocks through false rumors, so if you believe that it's a level playing field then you are just plain naive. Oct 07 05:57 PM

      Sad part is that the hedgies have made millions of investors lose faith in the market. Valuations no longer matter, it's no longer investing. Investors have pulled in their reins and what we have left is a market that is collapsing. They have destroyed American capitalism.

      You mention "casino", but I believe the odds are better in casinos, at least the casinos aren't cheating you.

    • Technicals and Triple Bottoms: What the Charts Have to Say [view article]
      I agree with your BJRI technical analysis, it's right on. On the fundamental side, BJ is at a larger disadvantage than the national chains since many of it's restaurants are located in parts of California where the recession has hit hardest. Also their PE is out of line considering their SSS are shrinking. A PE of 11 or 12 would be more logical, anything over 20 doesn't make sense for a company contracting. With that in mind, I would forecast that within one year, BJRI will be an $8.00 stock. Sep 11 08:55 AM

    • Apple Hype Priced In - Stop Trading! (6/9/08) [view article]
      In the last 30 years I would have a hard time naming a company as popular as Apple. So many Apple fans and on Wall Street, the translation of that is sell, if not go short. Contrary to the sore losers out there, Cramer knows this and I believe his Apple sell call is right on the money.

      To give Cramer more credit (I know he isn't always right) he was right on with WaMu. He has been saying sell for months and if you followed him and shorted WaMu you would be sitting in some nice hefty profits.

    • Dell: Low End of Server Market Accelerating - Morgan Stanley [view article]
      Dell may do slightly better in the low end server market due to the weak economy, however I find it interesting that nothing is mentioned regarding Dell's other products. Are its laptops and desktops also going to overcome the weak economy? Certainly not on the consumer end as those purchases can and will be delayed.

      Will the supposed increase in server sales more than outweigh the decrease in it's other sales? I haven't crunched the numbers, but I would highly doubt it. The weak economy will take nearly all companies down with it, to imply otherwise without facts is misleading.

    • The WSJ Is Wrong on the Housing Crisis [view article]
      BTW, I love the baby boomer getting older theory you attempt to sell. They tried selling that in AZ, NV and FL in 2004, saying the baby boomers are retiring and buying cheaper sunbelt houses and condos in advance of retirement. They argued that the sunbelt housing market will continue to soar. Then 2007 and 2008 rolls around and oops....that theory is now dust. Same as Mr Samora's theory will be next year. May 07 10:18 AM

      You forgot to factor in the large immigrant population flowing into the USA. Also not factored is the pent up demand that is now occuring as 20 and 30 somethings have been living with Mom and Dad and will be ready to venture out when houses drop some more and times get better which is most probably sometime in 2009.

    • Summer Gas Tax Holiday: A Puzzling Idea [view article]
      So the conclusion seems to be that we have to vote for stupid or stupider? Hmm, what happened to ideas with substance, ideas that help the country and aren't just populist ideas? Politicians who come up with real ideas go down in history as great, the politcians today are just pathetic a* kissers. Apr 22 12:45 PM
    • Shorting Citi on Today's Jump [view article]
      How can anyone in his or her right mind listen to a blip written by "anonymous Wall Street professional"? What crap. What a waste of time. I'll be sure not to read anything else from "Notable Calls", they are an insult to every investors and traders intelligence. The writer should get a real job and stop stealing from people.
