http://www.StockMarketFunding.com Opening Bell Wall Street Capitulation Options Trade Live Entry GOOG. Live stock market education on how to trade the "stock market crash" 2011 as traders and investors start panic selling.

Update: S&P's downgrade of America's credit rating dominated the Sunday talk shows. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner said S&P showed "terrible judgment" and "a stunning lack of knowledge," a view echoed by financial luminaries such as Warren Buffett and Legg Mason's Bill Miller.
S&P was "precipitous, wrong and dangerous," Miller told Bloomberg TV, while Buffett said America deserves a "quadruple-A" rating.
On the other hand, PIMCO's Bill Gross says S&P "demonstrated some spine" and it's hard to argue America's balance sheet hasn't deteriorated in the past 10 years.
At least in part, views on S&P's downgrade reflect how people are positioned. Geithner's bias is obvious while Buffett and Miller are both long America, literally and figuratively. Buffett also happens to be the largest shareholder of Moody's, S&P's biggest competitor.
Gross, meanwhile, was short U.S. Treasuries earlier this year and has, as he wrote in May, "long warned of the deteriorating creditworthiness of America's AAA rating."

  • @StockMarketFunding thanks for taking the time

  • Obama is late for his speech, wtf,did he have to eat lunch and make the world wait for him

  • selling coming back in to the markets...Obama on at 1 PM to tell the sheeple it's "all good"

  • @CarlsAirbrushTattoos options are priced based on where the underlying stock is priced. They are leveraged trading instruments that have high yields, both calls (long) and puts (short). The Google $560 August Weekly call was $10.30 on the low and $17 on the high. They had closed at $24.75 and we bought the lowest print of the day at the time $13.60 and sold it at $15.40

  • nice trade, that's pretty ballsy!
