I think GS is the only one that will survive.
I do believe LEH is next in line.

More rate cuts are coming, I expected it will hit 2% by summer. Therefore, I am buying GG today/tomorrow!

US is in recession, no doubt about that. Seriously, I think it's better to let the market fall rather than FED coming in "trying" to help out. FED are killing investors slowly. I would let the market crashes and recovers by itself.

I feel sad for investors who lost everything in BSC. Their retirement funds just went down the drain. I wonder how that going to help US to recover. It will just getting a lot worst.

jst think of the 14,000 employee's whos retirement fund is in BSC stocks.

Can't let the market crash, because this sub-prime mortgage isn't 1 company or a day thing, If they do it's notgonna be a great depression, but ithink they worried that they might hit that far down as the 70's fuel crisis recession.

Recession as will said is inevitable.

It appears the feds are delaying the inevitable depression. What they're doing now is just merely going to drive up inflation which, in turn, will cause even more pain down the road.

LEH is a huge roller coaster ride. From 20 to 30 in a less than 2 hrs.. The people holding that stock overnight really have balls..

they will be fine slong as they are not doing margins.

Borrowing to invest is stupid to begin with, especially if you have no means to cover it.

the market will recover eventually, most investors will lose the time value of their money, and feel crappy for a few years.

That's why educated investors spread the cost of investment instead of doing it in one shot.

FMCN - Focus Media. Dropped 27% yesterday to 32.19. Brokers are estimating it bounce back to 60-80 but will probably hit $50 tomorrow.

The way I see it is, Monday's opener are usually the worst! Tuesday's ends up being a recovery. The rest of the week will be stagged till Friday.

I was slowly following TMA, but because of the market I haven't invested anything right now. I'm saving it for Visa.
Ya, but unless you bought the day before you've made nothing so far

US is not out of the wood yet.
US market will test new low before starting to recover in the summer. It's way too early to tell that the worst is over.

Apple is good stock to buy at this level. Their support level is around $119.

I am betting gold will rebound next week. I just got "GG" today after gold stocks got beaten up this week. I don't see why gold is not going to trade any higher especially when interest rate cut another 1% in the past 3 days.

I got really good profit on GS and LEH over the past 2 days. So, I am throwing my profits on GG.
In this market, just do the opposite on what most traders think.

I am taking a wild guess to sell LEH, GS, BCS after today. Today's action sounds like we have bottomed which I don't believed so soon yet~

I like Apple right now. I would buy if I didn't have my cash tied up in other holdings.

imo now is not the time to be buying precious metal stocks. US dollar looks like it wants to stop the bleeding at least for a bit. euro down, swiss franc down, yen down, gold down, silver down, platinum down, palladium down. everything is kinda pointing to a relative top for the short term.the line of least resistance for precious metal producers are down.

anyways be nimble and stay disciplined guys cause one thing we can count on to continue is the volatility. for those of you who buy and hold/longterm investors, now isnt a bad time to review your portfolio maybe trim a few losers/lock in profits here and there and sell into this strength and stay safe in cash till this blows over. dont get excited over these 400 point up days cause they mean shit in the long run. the biggest one day gains are usually experienced during bear markets just like after the tech bubble. seems like the market just takes 1 step forward and 3 steps back.. sigh
