    axelrod608,

    I could have ONLY commented on what you originally said, "show me the money". For me that's after the fact.

    I invest on potential.

    You have a nice day too.

    axelrod608,

    Go ahead and think like that. All other losers in the market do the same thing __ wait until the price of the stock has increased about 40% and the (so called ) analyst are telling you to buy, then you finally get in, then you get the crumbs.

    Can you hear Cramer yelling "buy, buy, buy"? He will do it, once the stock has gone up about 90%.

    Know the history of the company in which you want to invest. If their product or service is relevant to the times, you will make money.

    Everyone on Wall Street wants to "show you the money" __ very few can put it into your bank account.

    Let's be logical, how can large companies lose 75 to 90% on their stock price since Oct. 1977 and still be in the black.
    These companies show no signs of going bankrupt and one day will explode to the upside unless our once great country goes under.
    Don't let the Moody's, the Cramers and the bankrupt banks yell sell, sell, sell.
    Remember the smart money like Buffett is buying low and selling high.

    PrudentMan CFA:

    The only way social security will work successfully is to eliminate all pension plans and put everyone on social security including the politicians.

    Everyone gets a social security number when they are born. That would also help to determine if a person is legal.

    I feel the Government should bail out if:

    (1) They get rid of the unions

    (2) Use mathematical formula for wages of blue-collar and dingy-collar workers.

    (3) Workers pay half of health care insurance.

    I feel that God is pushing us forward into alternative means of energy and teaching us to live within our means.
    Believe me that is not God you see vacationing in Hawaii.

    Good comment axelrod608, I couldn't agree more. We should pick our politicians the way the Pros pick their coaches and assistant coaches. They don't pick inexperenced coaches out of High School.

    If there is any good news, then it would have to be that Morgan Stanley took a hit yesterday. They have been downgrading everybody else for the last month. I don't know why anybody would listen to a company that can't manage their own business. Unfortuantly the Cramers and Morgan Stanley's do more damage than good. Example: The Market was going up yesterday until some jackass downgraded General Motorist credit rating and the market turned around and went down almost 800 points. Was that necessary? Everybody and their brother knew GM was in trouble.

    I can't understand why they don't investigate the ceo's at Lehman and some of the others, but instead they allow them to take lucrative bonuses etc.
    I guess they paid off the Democrats as well as the Republicans.

  • History Suggests the Financial Bottom May Be Near [View article]

    This is one excellent piece of journalism. You did your homework. The financials are a mess, but as you pointed out they are coming out of it. Someone should look closer at their Board of Directors as they really screwed AIG.This is really a time to accumulate good companies as these prices. You know, Buy Low, Sell High. What will happen is the Instutions will run the price of the Dow up 50% and then recommend their stocks to others and the market will go up another 20% and everyone will be happy. Thanks Jason

    I wonder how many companies would go under if the vultures (short interest) and their brokers didn't short them with no money down. Also where are all the bad managers coming from?

    Matt, You are such a pessimist, Do you always look at the dark side of life. Howard Ruff predicted these same problems about 40 years ago and they never materalized. I guess you have to write about something to keep your job.

    There's no logical reason for stocks to go down at the level they are trading now. All the bad news is out. It seems as if the Democrats don't care about the country and just want to hold the market down until November. Your best bet is to accumulate good companies until the election is over and you will be rewarded.

    The Unions had better think twice about striking Boeing. They have all but killed the Auto industry in the past. The economy doesn't warrant jeopardizing your job with a layoff.

    Does anyone honestly think Las Vegas, the world's largest resort combine is just going to disappear? Then let me sell you some vacant land on Mt. Everest. This is a golden opportunity to accumulate LVS MGM, Boyd and Wynn shares at fire sale prices. If that wasn't enough, add Macau, the largest gambling mecca in the world which is frosting on the cake.
