Why Friday Was Such a Critical Day for Bank Stocks

My comments are not the most popular ones here on the board. But, htat hasnt' stopped me.

The Hedge Funds with their Trillions of dollars were speculating in oil in the spring and early summer of '08. When speculation began to catch a lot of heat in July, they switched to shorting the market especially Financial instutions.

is shorting positions Fund B is known to be long on. I hope they feed on each other until they collapse into a wirling black hole and disappear into deep space.

Too much money and too little enforcement of regulations!
