  • What's Wrong with the AIG Bailout Model? [View article]
    All this money on the"sidelines&quo.... that is in either cash or commodities or coal and ag names will EVENTUALLY be deployed into HIGH QUALITY common stocks. Real estate Bubble of 2001-2006 has still not"recovered&quo.... 1982 I locked in a 5 year CD at 17 % ,todaythat same CD will yield less than 4%. FUND managers DO NOT GET PAID to be in CASH ALL YEAR. Find companies like PM XOM and others with a Reasonably priced PE ,have a ROE average of at least 18% annually over the last 5 years and are worth over 100 billion dollars in market cap and can"absorb" large investments by the"big boys"

  • Short Investors Take Notice of AIG and MetLife [View article]
    The United States government needed to take these measures in order to avert a major financial crisis around the world

    If you are long a position you must reveal your investment.Short selling should be the same

    The naked short rule was never enforced and without getting into details or naming names this action was sorely needed

    Many Americans who worked hard at Lehman and others were financially crushed by the mistakes of Jimmy Cayne and Stanley O Neill Richard Fuld Angelo Mozilo and others.Capitalism like love and war is not always fair.

    Destroying the US economy hurts all countries and don't think for one minute central banks across the globe were telling Paulson to do this.Some countries as they were covering their own short positions

    Smart money has been covering their shorts for weeks now and contrary to the outrage you hear from Chanos and others they knew as me and my partners did that this day was coming

    This summer this ban was put into place but afterwards the rules were flaunted and like reckless behavior of those who spawned the sub prime crisis

    The same reckless shorts got to full of themselves and started tearing down the system they claim to protect. Certain firms were attacked by shorts who were not bound by any rules

    The uptick rule is not feasible contrary to Jim Cramer's rantings .Trades happen much faster now and AIG traded over a billion shares the other day . This is not 1988

    Shorting is not made illegal and those who continue to short bloated pigs will still be allowed to as long as they follow the naked short rules.Short selling is a necessary part of the market but personal freedoms that kill the goose who lays the golden egg benefit no one

    There is a boatload of money on the sidelines and the housing and credit markets need its infusion

    Bernancke is ten times the Fed leader Greenspan was

    If the doctor told you to change your eating habits or die

    Would listen to him or continue to say no one is going to regulate my diet

    US Government made 3 billion on the Chysler bailout when Buffett was not yet a billionaire

    Paulson and Ben had no other choice

  • AIG: The Cramer Conspiracy Theory [View article]
    Cramer and Greenspan both like to rewrite history . Both are more intent on writing books and talking smack . The big fish will continue to ea the small fish. JNJ MO PM KFT Berkshire etc will continue to roll on.From 1957-2003 18 ofthe top 20 S&P companies were pharma or consumer goods companies when reinvested dividends are taken into consideration.
