Why I'm Leaving Lehman

I also wonder what made you sell out now when you should have done so long ago. What were you thinking when LEH hit the intraday low of $20? It was at the brink of collapse exactly like Bear and the stock is still underperforming its peers. So why exactly is LEH any better than the rest? I would say if anything it is more vulnerable but selling out NOW is definitely an afterthought just like this article.

I meant the first comment...the market is always flush with rumours. Sometimes they are true. If the rumour was that Bear was going bust, who can refute that? It happened. So let's not start some MaCarthyist movement here to get the shorts.

Hallelujah to that comment! I sold my stock just before the collapse and saved a bundle. Wish I had gone short too!
