Freefalling

Is There a Goldman CDO Scandal?

All properly planed crimes are carefully constructed. Always a fall guy. Always a setup. The suicide rate in the world would fall precipitously if there were no murders contructed to look that way. The Gold men have total control over government and business and truly answer to no man. Yes, they are the evil empire, but they've got it locked up. Just get ready for poverty. It's not enough for these guys to be insanely wealthy. They take sport in destroying everyone and everything else. Believe it or not, they are decendents of Genghis Kahn and the Mongols. Wreaking havok on others is sport to them. Think that's crazy? Do a little research, or a lot. And their methods are quite successful. Imagine if they focused their incredible talents for actually doing 'God's Work' rather than being chefs in Hell's kitchen...

Five Reasons the Market Could Crash This Fall

Actually, these are just clarifications and a summary of much of what is already common knowledge. There are a number of issues which still haven't been mentioned: 3T in bad commercial property loans. Bankrupt CA and other states (that's not fixed yet). Alt-A mortgages being recast to ~500B. Millions underwater, delayed foreclorsures. Do you argue the unemployment figures? Inflation is not low--real buying power is diminished, although some deflationary demand-destruction effects are visible. Currency destruction--not demand-pull inflation. Quantitative easing is not the same as economic recovery. We've had stock collapses in 1987, 1989, 1990, 1993, 1997. 2000, 2003, 2007-2008-2009. There is no way the average investor has the information to protect himself from the crashes. What makes you think YOU know there WON'T be one now? Jim Cramer tell you? Brilliant!

Bullish Dollar Rally - Fast Money Recap (8/15/08)

Something has to give eventually. If in the good times, the budget deficit needs a $10.6 E12 cap, how much do you think the recession will require? Think about the Bull in dollars: We just bailed out a bottomless pit (GSE's), Housing is in a death-spiral, not a bottom (use the part of the brain that still can do critical thinking, not the constant part) and the whole banking system is being propped up by playing cards. The dollar is on life support and people are bullish? Based on what? The rest of the world knows our debt will never be paid unless they lend us the money to pay them. I think they're on to us...
