as security or lessening the risk for his bank speculations:

It's conservative risking, and have thought similarly
since TARP began. If Paulson has AIG, then he's doing ok with that non-taxpayer owned twenty percent as since its reverse split
AIG common has been up.

The book value of BAC is said to be approximately double it's current price quote.

Plus Paulson as a long should be able to victoriously lead the squeezing of shorts too.

No wonder BAC is up almost everyday now, and re-covering
in the afternoon as did BAC (I think) did.

There are not a few stodgy, name stocks selling under book, and Paulson is probably nibbling at the sleepers, as contrarians
are known for quietly doing.]]>

Schwab ETFs: A Little Too Late? http://seekingalpha.com/article/151245-schwab-etfs-a-little-too-late?source=feed#comment-622012 622012 It is reported (where?) that JINSHAN has added some improved
technology, and that may be why
the stock is well over a dollar now compared to
the sixty-seventy cents a share of a month or so ago.
Because their productivity has increased. Both my HECLA
(HL) and my YAMANA (AUY) have been doggie in comparison to
JINSHAN (JINFF) generally during the approximate month time period. ]]>

Their etf fund managers eat lunch with the brokers, and hear information that I am not in positions to regularly hear

The brokers by definition are in position to know things that
that clients are currently doing or will be by trading limits

If I did, then perhaps I wouldn't be sifting through the "maybe/maybe not" stuff of Seeking Alpha ]]>

Strange Action in Gold ETF Chart http://seekingalpha.com/article/122785-strange-action-in-gold-etf-chart?source=feed#comment-405246 405246 shots for my USA

There would be intensive surveying/cruising/pro... for gold, and
silver, uranium, etal

There would be the best mines with the least damage that we can
construct

Technological state of the art would be utilized, the best available
people & equipment--as far as I know, that's what we can do
best, utilizing & compensating the best mining engineerrs and geologists
available

The area to search: Every U.S.taxpayer-owned inch of ground

As per procrastination, the politicos won't act until our political-economic reality becomes harsh-hell, and it's getting there as I type my ranting

The objective: The U.S. Treasury accumulates so much damned gold,
silver, platinum etal that confidence in our dollar & debt is hyped
that our friends & acquaintances know we're hoarding
metallic insurance, as per a
21st century maximal Fort
Knox, the traditional precedent-symbol]]>

15 Companies That Might Not Survive 2009 http://seekingalpha.com/article/119133-15-companies-that-might-not-survive-2009?source=feed#comment-389967 389967
I have previously speculated in RAD among others, and here are some ideas--I don't own any shares of RAD now

Walmart buys it, and sells drugs, plus those 5000 RAD stores beome "Walmart Mini Stores"

A non-American drug chain etal retailer buys it

For instance In Europe there is "Carrefour" (sp?) chain, a typical prospect

RITE AID joint ventures with Dell, Lenovo or other companies seeking
retail store locations--even ice cream, hamburger, pizza, chicken, taco stands

I miss the ole fashion soda counter drug stores]]>

A Mexican, whom is the most comptent and variably well- skilled person
I know of, is going home in a few weeks. He says there is not enough
work for him in the Atlanta area.

He seems able to do anything, including plumbing and electricity, ceramic tile "beautiful"), roof, sheetrock, indoor ceiling leaks

He works as an independent. Apparently bad experience(s) with
company(ies) or whatever.

I know not what this has directly to do with stocks, so no flame is
necessary for its irrelevance.]]>
