Running The Books

Alright. It’s going to be ugly in about 5 minutes, in all likelihood. Information sentiment test time.
DOW at 12:00 noon today. You know the rules. We just did this. Closest without going under.
GO!
As an aside:
“Futures can trade down (only) as much as 10 percent. If they hit this limit, they can trade at (or exceed) this limit for 10 minutes. If they’re still limit down after 10 minutes, there’s a two-minute trading halt and we move to the next level (20 percent).” is the new “A credit default swap (CDS) is a swap contract in which a buyer makes a series of payments to a seller and, in exchange, receives the right to a payoff if a credit instrument goes into default or on the occurrence of a specified credit event, for example bankruptcy or restructuring.

    OK, can someone post when Erin Burnett starts to cry on the air?
    Also, if Maria Bartiromo shows up to work today, or would be too drunk to talk?
    Thanks in advance.

    Everyone is trying to call bottom on this puppy before we have all the data. There are clearly more losses yet to be booked – a hell of a lot more:
    http://tinyurl.com/558bbd
    We are not even 1/3 of the way through the losses, and we will not see bottom until 2012 at the least.
    This mess is bigger than any trades can measure. Sell and stay out until the end of 2011.
    I have been divested since Q3-07, and everyday it’s like I am making money, because I am not losing any…
    Trust me, DOW 8000+ will look great to you by Q2-09.

    Can I simply say what a relief to find someone who truly is aware of what theyre speaking about on the internet. You positively know the way to carry a difficulty to mild and make it important. More people have to read this and understand this side of the story. I cant consider youre not more common since you positively have the gift.
