  • California Joins the High Risk Default List [View article]
    <it is infuriating to watch the ineptness of the Legislature in Sacramento to do their job -- but then when politics became a career it ceased to attract qualified honest people who really do have a passion for public service. -- >

    I've lived here since 1974, and it's only gotten worse. There is nothing but gridlock in Sacramento these days. Who can hold their breath the longest(?), etc. Infuriating indeed. The special interests have ground everything to a halt. Throw in the neverending taxes and all the illegals, and it's a wonder we haven't defaulted already.

    There are as many right wing nuts as there are goofy, misinformed liberals in CA. Let's be clear about that.

    BO (same initials as the prez) is an arrogant ass, a talking head who's talk echoes from where his head's at-his bowels.

    I think buying RIG here is the opp that jumps out at me.

    Yes, there are many scenarios that could occur re BP's future. I think they'll be bled to the bone-at least that's what the pols and the lawyers will spend years trying to do (well, the lawyers, anyway). With BP's dividend likely to be cut, it logically follows that there will be (at least) a little bit more price depreciation. I would wait for some clarity on that issue before buying. Plus, if this thing gets dragged out long enough, it is possible that BP will begin to stand for 'Bad People', and their name/brand will be tarnished (in the U.S. anyway) to the point that something will have to change for BP America. AIG's selling off/changing names of some of its subsidiaries comes to mind.

    If you believe that, wouldn't it have been more prudent to wait for the the divvy suspen??sion/reduction announcement and buy at a lower price???

    Good analysis. Even though it might sound a bit farfetched to some here, this whole drama could very well be the end of BP as we('ve) know(n) it.

    Which side has the best lawyers??

    I think it could end up 100+ billion in a worst case scenario-not out of the realm of possiblility imo.

    Agree. Too many uncertainties, and imo, someone will have to play the sacrificial lamb-mostly likely Hayward. Despite what he's said about not stepping down, I think this will get dragged out to the point where the politicians will want to see somebody under the bus...and it won't be them. Even if I was to buy BP, I think waiting will get me a better price. Everyone will want them to pay for every little thing...and all those little things will add up to mucho billions.

    Good question. I tried to buy RIG at 42 today, but no dice.
