Is nancy pelosi and barney frank hitting on each other in this press conference?

@5 - nice work on the exclusivity agreement. despite the letter, there was nothing definitive about the deal. they were negotiating a "non-binding" term sheet. I doubt the courts will allow this to hold up a deal that is clearly better for shareholders/taxpayers.

@13 - who begins a formal letter with "first of all"? bush league.

America has just passed the 50 pigs in a Blanket, leave no pork behind bill.. and we have no way of paying for it.

This is most weird... after seeing the market clearly during this crisis, my chrystal ball just went foggy...

I can now say I am not only stupid, but now clueless as to how this all works out...

We have no commercial paper market, we have a printing press about to fire up in DC...

I am heading to the sidelines to ponder this market. Its time to book profits and walk... ney run to the sidelines for a few days. You guys can have the huge rally that may or may not arrive...

I don't like this market one bit at the moment. Its the last liquid pool left operating besides the currency markets.

Everyone knows the Treasury is going to drain the liquidity via its endless issues to fund the FED... so now what?

and I am green at the moment... serious WTF...

Who makes the presses that print the currency? I think we will need replacements soon.

Any which way you see it, we have sunk into the biggest global recession in the past 50 years.

I have no clue how we are going to deal with this, so I am just going to solidly hit the bottle for the next 3 days.

Easiest trade in the book was seeing them overwhelmingly pass a procedural vote this morning, watch the market start ticking up, and then go short right before the news.

We can still short California right? or did they hide that in the bill?

@SEG

You are heavily into cash. Dollar or EURO?

Is Jim Rogers anti-Goldman?

"It's the wrong approach," Mr. Rogers said yesterday while huffing through a lengthy morning workout on an exercise bike in a downtown Toronto hotel.

"This has never worked in history. Other approaches have worked, which they're ignoring. Part of the problem is these guys don't know any history.

"All they know is, Goldman Sachs is on the phone saying help, help, help."

EURO ... great cash rates at 4,50 interest on 90 days time deposit.
NO RISK, better than T-bills, unlimited
guarantee by Gov.

Now wait for Uncle Sam's debt default, United Sharecroppers of America,
here we come !

Fess up Bozos. How many of you own Maseratis?

"Most of these guys haven't even cut their dividends. And now they're expecting the taxpayers to go in there and bail them out ... so the 29-year-olds can keep their Maseratis."

Goldman is not saying "help, help" they are saying we have the world's best opportunity to screw the entire tax base of the US.

they must be absolutely wetting themselves. i am reminded fondly of hank's days of making oodles of money buying RTC assets in GS Whitehall funds.
