Fuld must go

Lehman is a rathole. This will go down differently then Bear Stearns, but it will get uglier. This stock will rally once Dick Fuld is shown the door.

When considering if financial stocks have hit bottom first consider this research piece by Bridgewater , the worlds 2nd largest hedge fund. It doesn't bode well for LEH, the financial industry, the US Dollar, or the US economy in general. This is no time to be taking speculative positions in securities that neither you or I have the ability to analyze completely enough to make a sophisticated investment decision. In markets like these you are far better off protecting your capital than trying to catch falling knives. ~~~~~~~~~~~ U.S. study estimated losses of fin...

John Paulson: Time to Get Back into Real Estate?
Fresh off of our unofficial 'John Paulson' day on the blog Wednesday, we're back again to announce that Paulson will be going forward with his Real Estate Recovery fund. The fund will be aimed at investing in distressed assets. <>On Wednesday we examined Paulson's equity holdings, and now it looks like he's getting ready to make a splash in other asset classes. The new fund will manage a few hundred million in its initial capacity (though no cap has been set) and will be managed by Mike Barr. Mike was previously at Lehman Brothers (LEH) where he has experience in real estate and private equity>...

John Paulson Joins David Einhorn as Gold Bug with Stake in AngloGold Ashanti (AU)

It is interesting to see some of the "smart money" beginning to position themselves for an eventual inflationary spiral. While I believe we are in a somewhat deflationary period right now with excess capacity in almost everything, and even signs of pressure downward on wages - the eventual bet is Helicopter Ben Bernanke will turn into B52 Bomber Ben and drop so much fresh US currency on the world that it will force inflation. Deflation is the fear of the U.S. power elite as it erodes their assets; and history has shown once you go into full blown deflation it is a very difficult thing to ...

More write-downs for Citigroup (C) today, due to underestimation. C is talking of cutting dividends by 40% which is scaring fixed income investors away. C is also commenting that perhaps the other big banks, like JP Morgan Chase and Merrill Lynch, are on a similar path of further write-downs. So keep Morgan Stanley (MS), Bear Stearns (BSC), Washington Mutual (WM), Wells Fargo (WFC), JP Morgan Chase (JPM), Merrill Lynch (MER), and Bank of America (BAC) on your w<>atch lists for shorting opportunities if further break-downs of those stocks happen. All of those companies have been covered in my >...

Making Money As A Bear

The market has been dropping like a rock the past two days and I've been positioned quite well to take advantage of it. I was expecting more bank failures to come since the beginning of summer and it was just a matter of time to see Fannie Mae (FNM), Freddie Mac (FRE), Lehman Brothers Holdings (LEH), and American International Group (AIG) take major hits.
I would suggest not taking up any new positions at this time, because it is unknown of what actions the government might take in order to soften the fall. There could be violent swings up and down and any shorts to be taken here could impac...
