Historical Data Disproves 'Trough P/E Multiple on Trough Earnings' Myth

The failure of woo hoo WAMU had more assets on an inflation adjusted basis than every single bank that failed during the great depression. Banks were tiny community companies back them. Now the top 5 banks hold more than 50% of the banking assets in the country. The biggest of them Citi is already a failed enterprise in my view.

Your going to get killed when the EFU flips the other way. A 30% rally off the lows will take you down 60% at least. In other words.....use a stop loss if your going to play the run.

Dennis Gartman: Go Long Infrastructure, Short Everything Else

Another consideration you should consider is that there are 9,000,000 cars sold next year, the lowest number of homes built since the great depression and almost no commercial real estate starts. New cargo ship orders are canceled, and there is a surplus of steel rail cars and cargo containers. Local and state governments around the country cut back as they face huge budget shortfalls partly offsetting the stimulous. Supply far exceeds demand, and steel stocks drop 90%+ from their peak prices as cycicals often do during a severe recession. This would be my worse case scenario. Steel drops another 80%, while the S&P only drops 40%. This would result ina massive loss. Not saying it is going to happen but definately a possability.

Harley-Davidson Gives Investors Ample Cause to Be Cautious

HOG burned 221 million in cash before taking cap ex into account. Cap ex was an additional 153 million. The primary asset of the company is 3.36 billion in finance receivables, which they have 36 million of bad debt allocated against in the first 9 months of the year. Bad debt on credit cards and homes are skyrocketing, but only 1% of motorcycle debt has gone bad? It seems impossible.

The correct price on HOG may be 0.

How Will Obama's Victory Affect the Dollar?

Really, the Euro rallied after 6 of the last 7 elections? The Euro began trading in 1999. My math is not that great but IT DID NOT EXIST IN 5 OF THE LAST 7 ELECTIONS.
