PUT options in the Fiscal Crisis - August 2007

[orlando351143]

John you are a fucking moron, get a life.

[jpalme2000]

And you are fucking moronic enough to not only watch my videos, but take the time to comment.

[jojomcbean]

ok... 4 billion on puts, means someone else is on the other side of the line. lol noob.

[SModikoane]

Apparently you posters missed the report on the B-52 with 5 nuclear weapons attached to it being stopped at Barksdale Air Base in Louisiana.

According to the Wayne Madsen Report, the plane was headed to Iran to be a part of 2000 bombs to be dropped on strategic sites. There was a refusal on the part of the Air Force in Louisiana to carry out the mission. A few days later, the Air Force shot down the satellite that was used by the US to guide nuclear missles.

one person or one entity can place opposite trades to cause panic . And possibly profit from it . It is all about greed and fear . You create support for yourself to scare people into selling in the worst case you will break even or close to it in best you will make a fortune .

[AntiBullS]

I knew it was a hoax

[joesengyou]

nothing happen!!!!

everything are OK

30-50 percents dropping???????

[snocamo]

The US dollar is now worth what it was in 1976. Oh, man. What is happening? Gold is taking off like it has solid rocket fuel boosters strapped to it. Oil closing over $82 a barrel. Retail prices going up all over and the powers that be try to convince me that there is no inflation. Puhlease.

[snocamo]

The puts and calls were bought back today on 9/20/2007. Costs a lot of money to do that, too. Read it at tickerforum. org

The big "it" didn't happen, so the entity canceled the puts and calls. Don't see any rollover into October yet at the Chicago Board of Exchange. Will check with the cboe website for large puts and calls concerning the SPY.

[followyourgut]

It may happen until monday the 24th... Asian markets are one day overlapped...

[InvestigatEverything]

I have looked into this a bit. Today is the 17th, so by Friday this collapse has to happen. However, after thinking through this, I came up with another hypothesis. It is possible someone did this to make all the "truthers" come out and say "CONSPIRACY, END OF THE WORLD" and then nothing happens which makes us look nuts. Just another theory, not sure.

[snocamo]

InvestigateEverything, that little experiment to reveal truthers set the person back billions of dollars. That seems awfully expensive just to manipulate the market unless China or some world wide organization is behind this. Whoever did this repeated the same put and call buy last week, too, and it expires on 9/21/07, too. tickerforum. org is a good place to search for knowledgeable replies.

[InvestigatEverything]

I agree that it is definately something to watch for and be weary of. However, in today's country with it's fiate currency, I wouldn't put it past "the powers that be" to blow money to make us look stupid. What's a billion to the guys that print the money... follow me? It's just another option, but I lay in wait this week for the outcome.

[InvestigatEverything]

The first sign may come today as the fed come forth with their "rate/fate" discussion. Let's see what they say. If they don't cut, you can pretty much guarantee there will be a knee-jerk reaction in the markets and stocks will plummet. We'll see.

[snocamo]

InvestigateEverything, so Ben lowered the rate by .50 and the market takes off as if on fire. Noticed how the dollar dropped in value and the price of oil is closing at new record highs? With the put and call options expiring on the 21st of September (three days out), I nervously wait to see what I'll read in the papers on Saturday morning --- disaster on American soil, nuclear war started with Iran, or someone making huge amounts of wealth from an incredible stock market rise.

[InvestigatEverything]

Yeah, I'm still trying to put 2 and 2 together on this one. As I've said in previous posts, I'm not sure which way it's going to roll on this. I believe however that since the options expire on Friday, the event would have to take place by or on that day. Sat. would be too late (I think, but I'm not a stock guy so I'm not sure). I was also surprised by the rate drop today, thought maybe it would go the other way, causing stocks to tumble.

[srm2k]

Good analysis. This market is primed to fall. Adjusted for inflation, the Dow is well below it's 2000 top. Don't expect a 1987 scenario where we recover quickly after a week long crash. The structural damage to the market will preclude anything more than a dead cat bounce. Peace.

[tubegimmick]

OSAMA WAS RIGHT!

Bin Laden Experiment!

Check it out!

My latest two videos

[beckweth]

Perhaps someone got their 20 billion out and re-invested in the Bin Laden trade in order to crash the market. Not a bet on something known, but something hoped for.

Langley AFB has a stand down order starting on Friday Sept 14th. In reaction the the nuclear war heads they 'accidentally' flew over the U.S. That is something to watch.

[srm2k]

A war game scenario - as we saw on 911. Don't believe for a minute that someone doesn't know where a few nuclear warheads are at any given moment. Nuclear weapons. God help us.

[snocamo]

Gold has gone up nearly $40 American in the past few weeks. I watch CNBC every morning and have kept up with the price of gold carefully. The higher the price of gold, the more the market is tanking, so I've been told.

[Kittenkattan]

I will take some of that bet. I am so sure that the market will tank, not because of a PUT, but, because guys like you are so greedy that you put a whole middle class in to the Sh*t hole.

[Kittenkattan]

Now, what will happen to bring about the drop. I think a Nuclear attack. Indian Point is only 30 miles away from Wall Stock Market. Close enough to cause mass shut down of electrical equipment. Not to mention mass death and injury. HEY, It is also (Kol Nidre), the evening before YOM KIPPUR!!!. Scary.

[Led7Zepp]

Maybe the reason why they are betting against the stock market this month is because President Asshole will launch a nuke attack against Iran to start World War III. This guy is an insane mother fucker.

[Zhuangyao]

War with Iran will not trigger a 30% lose so immediately

[Led7Zepp]

They're going to use tactical nukes w/ the firepower of three hiroshemas. Check it out.

[Kittenkattan]

Where do you see tatical Nukes? I think that it is a simple, single engine plane, below radar. That is all they need to do to make this into a national disaster. No Joke.

[james2macd]

Right on dude. But perhaps this could be China betting on and then causing collapse of the stock market to try to recoup some of the 10 Billion USD they just lost. Either way this is VERY SCARY!!!

[alfwiz]

If one were to wish to purchase Euro Bonds, where would one go to do that in America?

[joesengyou]

4 billion dollar?? are you sure market will drop 30 TO 50 percent by 21st sept??

that's a crazy bet

[Mohd212]

As usual, you are giving some good simple information. would you concentrate more on the hedge funds. huge cash injection in our region (ME) for purchasing real estate. This money comes with less than minimum credit policy and trying to allocate the cash in whatsoever real estate here. I believe those hedge funds with no regulations whatsoever in USA are the mask of the guys who play the game. Remember wealth never disappear but changes from hand to another.

Many thanks

[DangerousCombination]

Hi jpalme2000, In your next vid can you explain more on your reasons not buy gold/silver? it's always been a safe haven in times of trouble? Also do you think ppl should keep some cash somewhere? Also, how would someone buy euro bonds?

[Led7Zepp]

Try Dick's fund:

American Century International Bond, symbol - BEGBX.

Thank DICK.

[Zen029sky]

Wouldn't it just be better to short the market, instead of investing in Euro Bonds?

[Led7Zepp]

It looks like they are crashing the dollar on purpose to bring about the Amero. Dick Cheney had between $10 million and $25 million in American Century International Bond (BEGBX). The fund buys mainly high-quality foreign bonds (predominantly in Europe) and rarely hedges against possible increases in the value of the dollar. Indeed, its prospectus limits dollar exposure to 25% of assets and the fund currently has only 6% of assets in dollars. My money is there next week. Thanks DICK!

[SModikoane]

There is a video on You Tube that describes how they are keeping down the value of gold. Search under this category:

People And Power: Death of the Dollar

[letsgobartman]

Do you think oil stocks will be a good bet to buy when the market crashes?

[jpalme2000]

Consumables are always a good purchase, because people need them.

[letsgobartman]

Hey John when the market crashes what kind of stock are you going to buy?

[jpalme2000]

I haven't thought about it yet, have to see how the market falls. Do you think it might make a good video?

[mujeebyzai]

I can only say 'WOW' and thanks for sharing this.

[jpalme2000]

I understand what they did. The question is Who? Do you know?

[andretti3300]

Interesting, I am into Bible prophecy and always wondered how the shift of power from the US to the European union would happen. Not to mention the CFR's wanting to bring about the Amero to the North American Union by collapsing the dollar.

[Zhuangyao]

thx john...really appreciated

[jwein8282000]

omg! how many people are going to put this bogus story out on youtube? Just delete this video, Its been exposed as a "box Spread" go to thestreet(.)com and search for "Dispelling the 'Bin Laden' Options Trades"

[jpalme2000]

Yes, it's a very nice box spread. Until they find out who made such a nice spread, I'm holding on to the opinion. Thanks!

[jwein8282000]

They do know who did it and they know why. ITs an options strategy which is a complicated loan. They took both sides of the trade. This means that they cant lose any money, its been reported completly erroneously including here on youtube. But by all means believe what you want. ;)

[jpalme2000]

Euro Currency is a not a bad investment, but I'd stick with the bonds. The difference is that they will float with market conditions where hard currency can only change with the change in value against the dollar. I'm not a financial adviser, just an engineer. Your juji board is as good as mine.
