S&P 500 Stocks with the Highest Short Interest

Thousands of ridiculously overvalued stocks and
MRK and PFE make the list ? More proof of the idocy dominating the casino, excuse me, I mean stock market ! Totally absurd.

Citigroup: Priced to Succeed

Well why not C !.If garbage stocks like LVS and MGM have risen 8 to 10 times, why shouldn't garbage like C go to $15 ? Besides, the taxpayer is always the ultimate backstop for banks . Since the commerical real estate market (the supposed other shoe to drop, once upon a time) has maintained as if nothing mattered, then C and all the other horrendous banks should continue to prosper with the Fed's complicity. Since toxic assets have been relegated to the trash bin, and mortgage defaults don't count for much anymore, how can C be anything but a marvelous investment !

Why This Rally Is Unsustainable

"Short" is a word the author should pay closer attention to. "War and Peace" was a faster read than the aricle was. Verbose to say the least.

Thinking the Impossible: Could Bank of America Go to Zero?

Thank you author: We needed more scare tactics and gloom and doom.
We don't need to read your post to realize that all our banks are insolvent.
Duh, we get it !
Should BAC fall to zero, it will then match the worth of your article.

Eddie Lampert's Troubles: It's Not Just Sears

2 years ago when Cramer was screaming (his usual manner of speaking),
I e-mailed Cramer. SHLD was $165 approx at the time. I challenged Jim
with the following: "Any time in the future,minimum 6 months out to any date in the years to come, you pick the date Jimmy, I will bet you $100,000 that SHLD will be lower than your screaming buy price
of $165..Of course, I never received a reply, Not that I am smarter than Cramer, or prescient in any respect. But, when Lampert (the supposed genius), combined 2 dogs, aka: Sears + K Mart, combined these 2 losers
to form his imagined real estate empire, and formed SHLD, you had to be
deaf, dumb and blind not to know SHLD was a giant loser.
How the mighty have fallen !...Lampert has plenty of real estate now valued at 50% less than when he went haywire years ago, and he has
the empty big-box retailers KMart + Sears. SHLD will go under eventually
but Cramer, unfortunately, will keep screaming forever !
The market is humbling..Egotists like Lampert, who care not one whit for employees, are simply getting their just desserts. There is a God !!
