No opinion, really?
wtf
[chuckle]
Morgan Stanley downgrades to “FIF”
funny…waiting for downgrades on a hunch or feeling next
Fantastic headline.
is being reduced to “no opinion” the same as being reduced to “jerk off and cry”?
I’d be a little more gracious than that if I was Guy Mozskowski. Afterall, Merrill is the next brokerage to go down.
You may say WaMu or Wachovia are next. But I wouldn’t take bets on which one of the three will go belly up first.
analysts just put a GTFO rating on LEH stock
Does anyone have a link to donkeyboy Cramer’s last Lehman call?
I hear GS put a buy rating on LEH.
@8 – HA
What’s the latest on WaMu? Is it really a matter of days for them?
hilarious bess
@12 The FDIC only takes over banks on weekends. So either this Friday or next Friday…
@AJ Never thought of that. Good to know. Thanks!
Enough about LEH! Carney said no more after his post…who gives crap what its being rated.
Just post: LEH stock price: Haven’t seen a beating like that since someone dropped a banana down my pants and let a monkey loose (or gorilla in Fuld’s case).

reduced to tears
Shit, I’m thinking about my B-School mates who just joined LEH 3 weeks ago…
good headline Bess
“…reduced to WTF”….hilarious!!
@19
Stop thinking
19, ‘mates’ what? are you in australia?
good day, tool.
mayo downgraded
Bess- as the author of comment #11 on the “Lehman finished by tommorrow” post, I feel you owe me a drink for shamelessly freeriding on my observational genius.
Sincerely,
#11
It’s a great headline Bess. I would have gone with “Merrill Downgrades Lehman From ‘Neutral’ To ‘Chaotic Evil.’” Yours is far less nerdy.
Bill Miller and Legg are accumulating. No better way to doom a company.
The holy treasury of bails…where are you Mr. flick the next generation Paulson
Didn’t know analysts followed the “if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all” rule.
@25– Yes, your comment did alert me as to the downgrade, and I nodded my head vigorously with your observational genius. Of course, I took it one step further (and did it with pith) but who’s counting.
Anyway, agree that you are deserving of a beverage, so feel free to e-mail about that.
Drinks on DB? I’m there, like, yesterday!
anal_yst– you weren’t invited. this is between 25/11 and bess.
Oh could we do these DB drinks today? I’d totally be in.
no we can’t because i’m getting my face ripped off. monday though, i’ll have free time.

How has no one commented that CITI analyst just downgraded LEH from buy today. Were they sleeping the last two days?
Lehman just downgraded MER to GTH (go to hell).
Don’t these douchebags get paid to have an opinion?
@diablo – HA.
