It seems odd that the Bp of directors of the FEDERAIL RESERVE a private company is the same as those being bailed out. look up the bd of dir or owners of fed reserve and bd of dir of bailed out banks. how many know that the Federail reserve is a private comp.
We are going to see hyperinflation. pumping all this money into the system is going to cause hyperinflation. stockgunslinger channel (stockshotz) interviewed john williams, jim rogers, peter schiff, james turk and they all agree on inflation. watch some real information on stockgunslinger channel.
I want to hear obama say that people who "REFINANCED" their mortgages to higher amounts than what they originally paid for their homes will not get any help at all.
My 30yr short jumped 3.5% today at the opening bell. It lost 5% on Tuesday when the DOW was down 3%. Now the DOW is flat and it is back up.
I guess the fundamentals are beyond me. Nobody wants to buy the bonds but there is no other place to go - UK and Japan were options but now are not. Gold isn't an option on that scale.
The poor suckers are forced to buy the bonds for no interest and then watch them devalue with the inflation created by Trillions of dollars of crazy spending.
K9, you are a police officer. Who do you blame more; a drug dealer or the drug user?
China/FED are the "dealers" that gave us all the money to hang ourselves. We are the users that just sucked it up and went back for more.
Before everyone flips, when I say "we" I mean the average person. If you are on this site and a diciple of MOT then you are "tuned in" and probalby not putting another big screen TVs on your credit card for your bathroom.
I agree... As for the dealer or user I blame them both and that is a good point card addiction is a big problem.. As for credit cards and being me MOT follower I never had a credit card as hard as that may be to believe these days. I know I have a good credit score because I was able to obtain a mortgage which has another 10 years left on it.
2. As for credit cards I write checks. I had a senior mentor in my life that I highly respect, a math teacher that has been my close friend for many years and Bill would always say "CASH on the barrel head will keep you out of trouble". I have known Bill & his wife Fran since I took my civil service exam 19+ years ago and outside of the mortgage I have lived by that rule all this time and yes it has kept me out of trouble, I couple that with being frugal.
If your going to buy gold or silver you better do it now because Obama is calling for yet ANOTHER stimulus as of yesterday 2/18.
Well if this was his plan he calls "change" the only change I see is the road to socialism, something the democreeps have been wanting for 40 years now. Maybe he meant "pocket change" because that is all most people seem to have these days.
Well I left my last layoff figure for February "yesterday" (Tuesday) on MOT's other vid blog and the layoffs were at 55,379.
Well I just checked Forbes tonight again for the month of February and it is now 108,189 which means 52,810 people have lost their jobs virtually over night!!!
This is serous business!!!! and total collapse is knocking at our doors. Kiss the good life goodbye... Its over!
mot ...hear you brother data over load ..is all negative
thought about shorting the 30 yr TBT..but why bother
if it goes off is too late already ..invested 70 % of my savings in food,.fuel and silver..real assets in a world unwinding . time is getting very short ...had thought this am ..all currencys on earth devaluing against dollar
Fed Balance-Sheet Equity Ratio (6/28/20071/15/2009, in percent)
This figure implies an increase of the Fed's leverage from 22 to 50. As we have seen there are large new positions of dubious quality on the Federal Reserve balance sheet. More specifically, should only 2% of the Fed's assets go into default — or if there is a loss in value of 2% — the Fed becomes insolvent.
Printing the money is only one half of the equation. Once the money is printed then an offsetting debt -
Treasuries - must be sold. If you make a Trillion in new currency you also create a Trillion in debt.
Up to now the FED was able to print money whenever they wanted - the $11T debt verifies this. Eventually the press will run out of ink - nobody buys the debt.
In the first week of January, Germany had a bond auction fail - nobody bought the debt.
Germany is arguably one of the safest places for your money now. They are efficient, prudent and a huge net exporter.
Well if Germany's auction is failing then how long before the US auctions dry up?
The FED is really like homeowners with equity in their homes. If you want to take more debt on, then just call the bank and they will trade dollars for more debt on your house.
At some point however the banker will say you have no room to take on more debt, which shuts off your money.
Moody's recently split their AAA rating scale into three subcategories: resistant, resilient, and vulnerable. The US made placed into the resilient category along with the UK. Not surprising a country like Canada received the top AAA category of resistant . Moody's will downgrade US debt below AAA grade soon. Doesn't the gov't realize that we are creating a Weimer Republic with all these bailouts? The printing press got Germany in trouble and it will get us into trouble too. God Bless, Jim
You mentioned a nuclear war, you are not alone in this, Bob Chapman and others say similar things...how on earth do we survive one of those little babies dropping on us?...and do you have biblical scriptual support for this? I agree that war will sort this GFC out, no worries.

I am shrt 30yr. It had done 12% in the last 5 weeks - unfortunately I gave back 5% on tuesday when the market gapped down 4%, then back up 1.5% today.
I guess if you hear the FED buy the long bond up then it would be a good entry. They are artificially inflating it to make it attractive. Eventually it will right itself and you will pick up all of the fall.
The 'big play' is also in effect. The FED may go down a path it can't reverse if it starts buying up debt with more created debt.
We have probably all had enough of "bubbles" after the tech and housing bubbles.
If they do attempt to purchase their own debt and pump it up, they are essentially going to try to inflate a bond bubble. The burst as MOT would say would be the trade of a lifetime.
I suspect they only hinted that they would buy Treasuries in case an auction failed. They could appear to not be panicking but really just correcting the long bond's yield.
The Treasury just sold $14 billion of 30-year bonds. The auction wasn't terrible, but it wasn't so hot, either. Pre-auction talk was for the bonds to sell at a yield of 3.51%. Instead, they sold at 3.54%. The bid-to-cover ratio came in at just 2.02, compared with 2.07 at the last auction and an average of 2.18. "
Long bond futures dropped to the day's low after the results came out. They were recently down 25/32 to 127 30/32.
That last auction was for $14B in bonds and is slipping ... the good news is they only have to sell $2Trillion of them to cover the deficit + stimulus + $600B trade deficit (maybe less with less oil).
Who on Earth (literally) is going to be able to buy $2Trillion more. China bought $200B in 2008 - they are getting pressure to divest. Japan is second largest holder - and are completely getting whacked.
MOT observes "people don't know what to do". Truly, the answer is "Be still, and know that I am God". Chickens are still making eggs, the fields continue to grow, the cow titties still need milking. There is no starvation, not for this blessed land. There is only the grief and fear, that this money game is coming to an end. The woes of Babylon is falling. We will cry and lament about all the riches that are no longer bought and sold, yet the food and riches are still here with us.
question: for the last 2 months, I have been accumulating put options on this : iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treas Bond (TLT). The option symbol is YXDMH.X and it expires Jan2010. Does anyone have an opinion on this particular stock / option ??? Just wondering. I feel like I should buy more, but a little hesitate.
Shorting the 30 yr. bond is not a good idea since the US Government can manipulate the value of its currency artificially just as any other government can. You have no way of knowing what future politicians will do. Is my logic faulty?
Food will never become as valuable as you suggest, MOT. Here's why:
Iowa alone grows enough corn for every american to have over 1 lb per day.
1 state, 1 crop and we're well on our way to having enough food. I know most of this goes to feed animals and ethanol plants but it's simply an illustration. Take it for what it's worth.
So why was there a rice shortage in Vietnam? They are the world's largest producer of rice and yet they had, or still have, a rice shortage. The problem is the WTO.
I agree with you, why shouldn't a country produce food for its own country?!
Hi gilligasad, What good is all that food if you can't get it to market ? During the depression "milk ran in the streets" because when the Govt. imposed price controls, farmers couldn't afford to ship their product to market, so they just poured in out !! Never underestimate the stupidity of Govt. not to mention possible marshal law and fuel rationing and or strikes by truckers. The French revolution started because of bread shortage and inflated prices. GOT CAKE ?
MOT, have you heard anything about the Operation Blackjack comic in the London Telegraph (re: nuclear attacks on the US, martial law, etc) and, if so, what are your thoughts?
Why the hell would you buy gold right now? I thought you buy gold when the price low? Wouldn't it be like buying a TV a day before the sale...Eastern Europe's banks are going to crash.
You could be a gold trader; trying to 'time' the market buying low and selling high.
You could be a gold investor, understanding its worth and accumulating constantly.
Most people recommending gold now are not talking about % gains - though gold could easily hit $2000. They are using it as a hedge against currency failures.
A common example is - 1oz of gold in Roman times bought you a suit, hat and boots. One oz of gold now ($900'ish) would buy you a suit, hat and boots.
Hi cpgone, No disrespect intented but Silver and Gold is money....Everything else is currency in lieu of real money. Fiat currency is paper masquerading as money. Dollars are currently "official artificial money" which must have legal tender laws associated with it to force people to use it, because it's not real money.There is no law that says we must use "Fed Reserve notes" (dollars), BUT when it's offered to us, then we must use it or else !? Gold is for Kings,silver is for us. Death to fiat
Thats not exactly what I meant since I was talking about MOT's little mannerisems. Now lets not take anything out of context here, MOT as far as I'm concerned is "Da Man". He's been right on the button and ahead of the curve for MONTHS. He's sure better than that Jim Cramer.
I can't fault Walmart for being successful - they are run extremely well and provide huge jobs. To my knowledge they haven't closed any stores ever for being unprofitable. They closed one to break a union problem and a few to build larger stores.
How long can this last though?
The small guys weathered countless economy problems and supported communities. Now a town could be left without a department store, grocery, drug store, hardware, etc with a 1 min decision in a boardroom.
Wallmart is Horrible , they get those low prices by Paying their Employees crap. Wallmart even educates it's Employees about getting Welfare because they're Paying them so little that they Qualify. So once again the Tax Payer ends up getting screwed, while good (Union) Grocery Store Jobs get eaten by the Wallmart Monster.
We built a Walmart and were told at the opening meeting that safety of the construction workers was a prime concern. We were thinking ... 'wow they actually do have a heart.'
The speech ended with, " ... so everyone be careful and look out for each other. We cannot have the same incident repeated as the XXXX store. An electrician got electrocuted and the store opening was delayed by 2 weeks."
The worst part about this whole mess is giant multinationals destroyed the little shops that would help us get out of this mess.
Walmart comes into a town and evicts 5 small businesses. They are successful and I suppose have every right to do this. Unfortunately once the small shops all close, the area relies on Walmart to now provide everything.
Unfortunately if Walmart then has an unprofitable store they just close up and leave. Problem is those 5 small biz are all gone.
this is what probably will happen in my town, in mtns of Va. Wallmart wanted to build big super center and wanted breaks. town said no and wally is pouting and threatning to leave. Will leave town high and dry with little resources since Wally chased all the locals away. a few towns over, they banned together and said no to Wally, they have prospered. Hmmmm, one can live without them afterall.
I like Walmart - they shouldn't be faulted for being smart and executing. I just have a problem with the whole system.
Walmart takes the profits - they are large - and then funds growth in China/Europe (say). The little town that gets a Walmart doesn't get that profit cycling around their local economy - local employees get wages and that is it.
Ideally the local small biz owners make profit and then spend or reinvest locally. The Walmart system siphons profit and sends it away. :(
I have now seen 3 predicitions of market and/or bond crash in the last week of April. We would expect to see a massive selloff that cannot be controlled. Various regions will try to shut down markets, but with the global connections they might do more damage.
We could even see this happen right in the midst of some good market upswings. The Depression crash wasn't a slow decent ... huge up days and then whamo.
The market is a forward predictor so 2000 would say depression is 'coming'.
I had heard we can expect a small upswing in spring and summer and then a downturn in the fall again. Why do you say we will see a massive selloff in the last week of April?
You're last point is a very good one. The big sell off last fall began before the jobless rate skyrocketed and GDP plummeted. I agree with you that if Do falls to 2000 depression is coming. Things happen so fast though on wallstreet like you said. The dow could hit 5000 in just days if investors get scared bout stuf.
I have no idea what would make the market rise right now. There is absolutely no good news on the horizon and much more bad news to come.
Foreclosures started in 2006 when home prices peaked. People were defaulting while the economy was in full swing. We now have averaged 10,000 foreclosures and 20,000 job losses a DAY for over 3 months. Cont
Places like Starbucks are shutting down 1000 stores, circuit city gone, etc. All of those mega malls are going to die.
The housing market probably has another 25-30% of value to bleed out.
Those wars we forget about tick along at $550Million each DAY.
Cali and Kansas are broke and others will soon follow. There are now 11Million out of work; that means they don't pay taxes and in fact collect unemployment.
And ... the rest of the world is as bad or worse than the US, so no help will come from abroad.
One factor is the buy low sell high principal. There are investors that see these times as a good buying oportunity. But that might be the only good news.
Why, again, do you think the markets will tank in the last week of April?
The market relies on feedback which comes in on calendar dates. There are earnings for companies by quarter, there is monthly unemployment, there is consumer confidence, etc. Those hard facts drive markets up or down. We are still headed down.
If the world knew how bad it was out there it would tank today. We need April earnings to show the hard facts that no company is going to be getting earnings and the stimulus is not going to work.
It sounds like you are wanting to profit from this 'down' market and jump in.
Mr. Brilliant Buffet thought the same thing - "buy umberellas when the sun shines" - so he invested large in GE. GE is a good company with a huge backlog of sales. He got options to buy at $22 when the stock was at $25. GE was a solid good company with new green technology.
GE is at $10 today - it has lost 24% this month and is heading to zero. Do you think Warren is going to exercise his $22 option?
I've seen the horror. Horrors that you've seen. You have no right to call me a murderer. You have a right to kill me. You have a right to do that, but you have no right to judge me. It's impossible for words to describe what is necessary to those who do not know what horror means. Horror. Horror has a face, and you must make a friend of horror. Horror and mortal terror are your friends. If they are not, then they are enemies to be feared.
I think it is a line from "Apocalypse now" film. Remember the "crazy" rebel colonel (played by Marlon Brando) in Cambodia that had to be taken out? I'm not saying you're crazy, neither the ones who write here. That's is just a very interesting films with great acting.
Sorry that was a little cryptic. I meant you are more like Marlon Brando than Dennis Hopper in Apolcolyse Now.
Dennis Hopper was the crazy photographer. I guess Col Kurtz could be seen as crazy, but really was conflcted.
Which is somewhat like yourself MOT. You are a learned Harvard man who could play the same games as the banksters, but you also believe in the goodness of man and the chances for a new beginning and better future for us all.
why buy gold when you can buy now what you will need to use your gold for. In other words, even if you have gold, you will need food so you might aswell buy things like seeds, dry pasta, potash etc.
Great comment. You should already have your essential survival supplies. The time will come when a bucket of wheat will be more valuable than a bucket of gold.
I'm living in Tokyo right now teaching at an international school. i'm moving back to north america in the summer. its going to get rough back home. tokyo is getting tight also. i should buy bags of rice.
I think and sense that very soon the whole world economic system is going to crash and burn. And with all the various nations and their currencies. The elite will come in and help out their planned and deliberate tearing down of their current system and repace it with their new world system. The NWO. I don't know what the main form(s) of new currency will be. Perhaps the Amero and a transformed Euro. Eventually leading to a cashless grid society. And to the mark of the beast.
Self Sufficient in most parts of this country won't work.
Reasons are in my opinion for a truly self sufficient lifestyle are:
1: Temperate weather 45-75 (no need for AC or Heat) also good for crops.
2. Water Source - Regular rainfall or at least Stream, river, strong wells, etc. The ideal is a combination of regular rainfall (minimum 3 times per week and one other source)
Good point on the acreage. But, people have been living in harsh climates for thousands of years. I love your temperature parameters, yet feel many will survive in extreme climates.
when communism took over china, there was a mass exodus brain drain where people immigrated all over the world and set up their own communities, no reason why americans couldnt do that to some foreign country where the cost of living is cheap
maybe, but there are tons of places around the world where you will have much more freedom, if for no reason other than they don't have the money to spend on police & hi tech surveillance
We either all go into captivity or we all overcome this thing. I dont think its gonna really going to be easy to escape this new system if it does prevail.
The FED keeps teasing that they will buy up the long bond but they haven't so far. I think on some level they realize if it hits that point they have to free Madoff and put Tim under arrest.
Unless they are just trying to tinker with inflation.
Basically they would be giving all the long bond holders a bonus for sticking with the ponzi. But on some level the investors understand the ink is still wet on the bills they are using. They whole thing becomes worthless hence MOTs trade.
It's been interesting to watch all of the Insurance financials. They are a tell tale sign of the true trouble we face in this country. HIG (Hartford) down 20% today. Met Life & Prudential down 10%. AIG now trading under $.80 and soon to be bust.
All of this is very telling of the trouble to come. Insurance companies are typically one of the most sound investments in chaotic markets, but they can no longer hold leverage in these times with the downgrades and capital requirements!!Thanks MOT!
That's a good point. There is a dark side to human nature that can/does manifest itself in these communities. Hard to understand what causes it though
There is a community here in middle Tenn called The Farm, they've been here for over 30yrs, have yet to hear of any cult related deaths in the communty????
I always appreciate the clarity you help bring to the chaotic markets. You mentioned silver at 14. I think that it will easily double as most of the world is cranking up the money printing presses. More and more people are starting to see the truth. The dollar is the biggest hoax in the history of mankind. As people lose faith in the system they look for people that had it right. I was in the black last year in short term insured bonds and I've been pushing silver since last December.
Lol, Moody. Why would anyone believe Moody they were the ones who triple A'd most of this mess. How can anyone believe a company like them?! Stay away from Moody they get paid to rate companies.
Self sufficiency is great IF you have the farm land to do it. I'm planning on posting a video soon about what has happened with the farm ground in my neck of the woods. It's WAY over priced and concentrated in the hands of a few poeple in corporate mono-agricultural factory farms of genetically altered hybrid cotton, corn, wheat, soybeans and milo. The cancer rates here are sky high and the farmers use nerve gases on the cotton to kill the pests. The rivers and streams are cotaminated also.
now listened your complete predigt, Austrian banks are going under, I am working in one and am glad that I am protected in several ways if it takes its bath. Not spreading insider information here, Austrian banks are madoff-style infvested in Eastern European countires, 100% of our GDP, and if your rating companies start downgrading, death spiral starts and I am on the streets with all my gold and silver shares and double short real estate funds...
haha now you start talking about Gold. what about Dow 5500 and deflation? looks like we should sell our THRIVING gold & silver stock now and buy S&P dirt.
Chinas Four Trillion Yuan Rescue Package is Misleading
The Epoch Times.
"The Chinese state-run media outlets sensationalizing of the 4 trillion yuan bailout is an attempt to mislead public opinion. It is very dangerous for a government to manage the economy by misleading the populace. As soon as a great discrepancy develops between the governments actual behavior and the anticipations generated by the influence the masquerade had built up, the effect on the economy will be disastrous."
La gente que pense que entenderia esta situacion economica, social y posible sobrevivencia, tienes razon sobre encontrar gente que tenga la mente, el alma y el corazon abierto hacia la verdad.
Es triste pero habra mucha gente sin preparar ni siquiera en la parte espiritual, Dios sera culpado y no saben que el trato de mandar su mensaje atraves de nosotros.
for shorting the long bond the best vehicle I have found so far is TBT which is an ETF ultra short on the 20+ year note. I have a question for you. What happens when the Fed starts this "quantatative easing" buying back treasuries. This seems totally nuts to me can you enlighten us?
I have a friend that did that tbt thing... he did it in the run up to the passing of the stimulus. Now the fear is that the fed will begin to buy the longterm treasuries so I would call that play risky since the fed will mess it up somehow.
If you're gonna buy gold -- ONLY BUY IF YOU TAKE ACTUAL DELIVERY -- don't buy just a piece of paper.

a little cut and paste for you
forget from where...
Fed Balance-Sheet Equity Ratio (6/28/20071/15/2009, in percent)
This figure implies an increase of the Fed's leverage from 22 to 50. As we have seen there are large new positions of dubious quality on the Federal Reserve balance sheet. More specifically, should only 2% of the Fed's assets go into default — or if there is a loss in value of 2% — the Fed becomes insolvent.

The Fed insolvent?
They can just print some more money.
They can make them out of thin air.
Wish it was me:D
Gubi0007 2 years ago
Printing the money is only one half of the equation. Once the money is printed then an offsetting debt -
Treasuries - must be sold. If you make a Trillion in new currency you also create a Trillion in debt.
Up to now the FED was able to print money whenever they wanted - the $11T debt verifies this. Eventually the press will run out of ink - nobody buys the debt.
In the first week of January, Germany had a bond auction fail - nobody bought the debt.
crabshack777 2 years ago
Germany is arguably one of the safest places for your money now. They are efficient, prudent and a huge net exporter.
Well if Germany's auction is failing then how long before the US auctions dry up?
The FED is really like homeowners with equity in their homes. If you want to take more debt on, then just call the bank and they will trade dollars for more debt on your house.
At some point however the banker will say you have no room to take on more debt, which shuts off your money.

Moody's recently split their AAA rating scale into three subcategories: resistant, resilient, and vulnerable. The US made placed into the resilient category along with the UK. Not surprising a country like Canada received the top AAA category of resistant . Moody's will downgrade US debt below AAA grade soon. Doesn't the gov't realize that we are creating a Weimer Republic with all these bailouts? The printing press got Germany in trouble and it will get us into trouble too. God Bless, Jim

I am shrt 30yr. It had done 12% in the last 5 weeks - unfortunately I gave back 5% on tuesday when the market gapped down 4%, then back up 1.5% today.
I guess if you hear the FED buy the long bond up then it would be a good entry. They are artificially inflating it to make it attractive. Eventually it will right itself and you will pick up all of the fall.
The 'big play' is also in effect. The FED may go down a path it can't reverse if it starts buying up debt with more created debt.

We have probably all had enough of "bubbles" after the tech and housing bubbles.
If they do attempt to purchase their own debt and pump it up, they are essentially going to try to inflate a bond bubble. The burst as MOT would say would be the trade of a lifetime.
I suspect they only hinted that they would buy Treasuries in case an auction failed. They could appear to not be panicking but really just correcting the long bond's yield.

"30-year Treasury Bond auction not so hot
The Treasury just sold $14 billion of 30-year bonds. The auction wasn't terrible, but it wasn't so hot, either. Pre-auction talk was for the bonds to sell at a yield of 3.51%. Instead, they sold at 3.54%. The bid-to-cover ratio came in at just 2.02, compared with 2.07 at the last auction and an average of 2.18. "
Long bond futures dropped to the day's low after the results came out. They were recently down 25/32 to 127 30/32.
crabshack777 2 years ago
That last auction was for $14B in bonds and is slipping ... the good news is they only have to sell $2Trillion of them to cover the deficit + stimulus + $600B trade deficit (maybe less with less oil).
Who on Earth (literally) is going to be able to buy $2Trillion more. China bought $200B in 2008 - they are getting pressure to divest. Japan is second largest holder - and are completely getting whacked.
At some point this is going to fall.

You could be a gold trader; trying to 'time' the market buying low and selling high.
You could be a gold investor, understanding its worth and accumulating constantly.
Most people recommending gold now are not talking about % gains - though gold could easily hit $2000. They are using it as a hedge against currency failures.
A common example is - 1oz of gold in Roman times bought you a suit, hat and boots. One oz of gold now ($900'ish) would buy you a suit, hat and boots.

The worst part about this whole mess is giant multinationals destroyed the little shops that would help us get out of this mess.
Walmart comes into a town and evicts 5 small businesses. They are successful and I suppose have every right to do this. Unfortunately once the small shops all close, the area relies on Walmart to now provide everything.
Unfortunately if Walmart then has an unprofitable store they just close up and leave. Problem is those 5 small biz are all gone.

I like Walmart - they shouldn't be faulted for being smart and executing. I just have a problem with the whole system.
Walmart takes the profits - they are large - and then funds growth in China/Europe (say). The little town that gets a Walmart doesn't get that profit cycling around their local economy - local employees get wages and that is it.
Ideally the local small biz owners make profit and then spend or reinvest locally. The Walmart system siphons profit and sends it away. :(

I have now seen 3 predicitions of market and/or bond crash in the last week of April. We would expect to see a massive selloff that cannot be controlled. Various regions will try to shut down markets, but with the global connections they might do more damage.
We could even see this happen right in the midst of some good market upswings. The Depression crash wasn't a slow decent ... huge up days and then whamo.
The market is a forward predictor so 2000 would say depression is 'coming'.
crabshack777 2 years ago
I had heard we can expect a small upswing in spring and summer and then a downturn in the fall again. Why do you say we will see a massive selloff in the last week of April?
You're last point is a very good one. The big sell off last fall began before the jobless rate skyrocketed and GDP plummeted. I agree with you that if Do falls to 2000 depression is coming.

The market relies on feedback which comes in on calendar dates. There are earnings for companies by quarter, there is monthly unemployment, there is consumer confidence, etc. Those hard facts drive markets up or down. We are still headed down.
If the world knew how bad it was out there it would tank today. We need April earnings to show the hard facts that no company is going to be getting earnings and the stimulus is not going to work.

It sounds like you are wanting to profit from this 'down' market and jump in.
Mr. Brilliant Buffet thought the same thing - "buy umberellas when the sun shines" - so he invested large in GE. GE is a good company with a huge backlog of sales. He got options to buy at $22 when the stock was at $25. GE was a solid good company with new green technology.
GE is at $10 today - it has lost 24% this month and is heading to zero. Do you think Warren is going to exercise his $22 option?

I wouldn't go into anything that requires a consumer if your product is a 'want' and not a 'need'.

Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.
Row, row, row the boat
Gently down the stream
If you see a waterfall
Don't forget to scream

MOT,
Great stream of consciousness video. You have the blessed mind to help your fellow mankind.
Thanks a Trillion. Billions and billions of US dollars don't amount to much these days.

MOT,
for shorting the long bond the best vehicle I have found so far is TBT which is an ETF ultra short on the 20+ year note. I have a question for you. What happens when the Fed starts this "quantatative easing" buying back treasuries. This seems totally nuts to me can you enlighten us?
Thanks and God Bless.

I have a friend that did that tbt thing... he did it in the run up to the passing of the stimulus. Now the fear is that the fed will begin to buy the longterm treasuries so I would call that play risky since the fed will mess it up somehow.

TBT is bullish, this is not a short ETF in any shape/form

Try 30 billion between Gm and Chrysler. Another Black hole.

One thing that East Europe is doing correctly--I know that in Latvia they have reduced pay for government workers 15%.
