Geithner's Plan Fits Perfectly with New Mark to Market

"I think these estimates are too conservative. With Geithner’s plan these assets will return to much higher levels...even approaching a full 100 cents on the dollar as housing stabilizes and investors return to the space."

Some of those assets were never worth 100%. Remember how part of the problem is repackaging and regrading of the substandard tranches to get a better rating? Pick up this month's Esquire. There's a good layman's article about how the math was abused in the regrading.

Trash cannot recover value it never had.

Citi's in for More Pain

This site will never be credible. Some authors don't have bios after six months. Other authors can't even write at the 6th grade level.

"I was still sitting their with a $2,200 loss." (WTF? In this case it's "there" not "their".)

"After that, I learned that any company can go bankrupt. There is no magic carpet to safe me from the abyss." ( I have to assume he meant "save" here.)

SA is the pulpit of the C student.

Blogonomics: Market Manipulation?

Dear David Jackson,

Why are we still waiting for Liam's biography? If SA can't do a simple biography in six months, then why should we bother with anything published on the site?

I know. SA pays your bills and that's all that's really required. Integrity doesn't keep you warm and dry.

Microvision's No Show Hands the Pico Projector Market to TI

Liam was supposed to present his Biography over half a year ago.
SA just published another article by Liam and they still haven't presented the readers with his biography.

Six months is more than enough time for a professional to abbreviate their resume and e-mail it in. Even a grade-school student can get a biography done in one semester.

What does that tell a researcher about the usefulness of Seeking Alpha?

C'mon JB, Cindy already posted the link to the original message in this editorial. Look for this text at the bottom "Note: Edited from materials written by Numbersssss ". Notice it's a link. What's wrong with you? Cindy isn't trying to mislead anyone.

JB, are you jealous? You are king of cut and paste on the Yahoo message board. You are the last person that should accuse Cindy of regurgitating other people's posts.
