Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News

The fact is most consumers aren't as rational as you when it comes to buying a car. Once gas is $4 again, which will happen quickly, they will flock to fuel efficient vehicles in droves.

Last summer you had people taking $10-20K losses on big SUV's so they could buy an Accord, not considering that their approach would not pay for itself within YEARS.

Kicking People Out - Cramer's Stop Trading! (9/24/08)

The free market would correct all right, and we'd be in years of demise. There's a LOT of things wrong with this country, however, without banks lending money there is no growth and therefore no climbing out of the hole we're in. We're a capitalist society and we need CAPITAL to get back in the swing of things. Sure, Cramer is an idiot. Do the reverse and you make more money than if you follow his screaming advise - which changes with the wind. But read the Buffett interview on his thoughts about the bailout.

Greedy PEOPLE got us in this mess. Each Wall Street firm is comprised of PEOPLE, despite their lack of consideration toward anyone but themselves. But unfortunately those same people have put this nation in such a situation that the plan is the only option to avoid catastrophe. Like it or not.
