[08:30] {Threei} - Prior Continuing Claims revised from 3.659M to 3.671M
[08:39] {ese} morning Vad
[08:39] {Threei} good morning
[08:39] {ese} that sell off yesterday was not the same kind of volume as last thursday
[08:39] {Threei} no
[08:40] {Threei} Europe/Asia reversed losses,
[08:40] {Threei} we are having gap up instead of big down
[08:40] {ese} just looking at that now.....
[08:44] {ese} hmmmmm getting to the point where they've rung out the weak hands
[08:45] {Threei} this point has to come sooner or later
[08:45] {Threei} NCC... I wish I knew what's cooking there
[08:46] {ese} is that a bank?
[08:46] {Threei} yeah, nationalcity
[08:48] {ese} wow.....down from 36.00 high....
[08:49] {Threei} well... just by that you can tell it's a bank :)
[08:49] {ese} assuming the govt is bailing them out as well.....3.00 is a great price
[08:51] {Threei} MORGAN STANLEY RAISED WFC TO OVERWEIGHT FROM UNDERWEIGHT, PRICE TARGET: $40
[08:53] {ese} smart money is going to be picking up shares of banks all over the place.....WFC is free money.....
[09:00] {ese} US banking system needs to do something about the way the back deposits. Canadian system is way more stable. Canadian banks are required to have more gold deposits to back up deposts rather than assets
[09:03] {ese} not sure what it was like down south but it sure didn't seem like canadians were running to the banks to take there money........
[09:03] {ese} seemed like most canadians could have cared less
[09:04] {cosmo} sounds careless
[09:04] {dino} gm all
[09:04] {ese} how so cos?
[09:04] {Threei} dino :)
[09:04] {ese} dino
[09:04] {cosmo} literally
[09:04] {ese} ahh
[09:04] {Threei} it's a matter of leveraging in the fractional reserve system ese
[09:04] {Threei} we all operate in it,
[09:05] {ese} indeed
[09:05] {Threei} but at some point more or less sane leverage, let's say 1:10 or 1:12
[09:05] {Threei} got replaced by up to 1:40
[09:05] {Threei} and new money created by new loans out of thin air turned a system into pyramid standing on its top
[09:06] {dino} just keep 250k or less, you are fine
[09:06] {ese} definately
[09:06] {dino} or, better yet, keep it at brokerage, they carry higher covera amounts
[09:06] {dino} coverage
[09:06] {ese} I understand the leverage thing very well......have to leverage my house every month to stay on this board.......
[09:07] {dino} whats up w/amzn, bloody thing
[09:07] {ese} yuk yuk yuk
[09:07] {dino} lol es
[09:07] {dino} we live on leverage here
[09:07] {ese} ??
[09:08] {cosmo} the need to increase mechanical advantage...
[09:09] {dino} daytrading 4/1
[09:10] {Threei} Why the panic bail-outs? The answer lies in the $55 trillion dollar Credit Default Swap market that is unraveling day to day. Banks and central banks are totally focused on the breaks to the credit ring when up to $400 billion of Lehman Brothers CDS obligations come due in the next week, with nobody at the teller window to pay up.
[09:10] {Onix} Good morning all
[09:10] {Threei} Onix :)
[09:11] {ese} onix
[09:11] {Threei} What this means is that unspecified banks holding the Lehman CDS derivatives will get nothing, and then they will be unable to meet their obligations to other banks. At stake are the Money Market Funds on deposit in these banks. The entire system could collapse, so banks do not want to be in the position of lending to one another. The credit market has failed.
[09:12] {ese} now that should be interesting Vad
[09:13] {ese} I thought those credit swaps had already unravelled.....
[09:13] {ese} end of last month
[09:13] {Threei} I am afraid we are far from that
[09:13] {dptl} good morning all
[09:13] {ese} hmmmmm
[09:13] {ese} dp
[09:13] {Threei} dp :)
[09:14] {dptl} :)
[09:14] {Onix} hi dp
[09:15] {Threei} *SEPT INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION: -2.8% V -0.8%E
[09:16] {Threei} three biggest banks in the world that control well over 90% of the CDS market: JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Citigroup (C), and Bank of America (BAC).
[09:17] {Threei} This crisis will soon be over – but first the bankers must show us they have survived the next wave of CDS obligations coming due this week and next. The answer will be in the share prices of JPM, C and BAC.
[09:17] {ese} they will get bulk of govt bailout probably .....to back stop it.
[09:20] {ese} if the US govt can't backstop it Vad.....we'll use your money...dinos ...and a couple of otheres on the board
[09:21] {ese} probelem solved!!!!

[09:25] {dino} real estate issues

[09:27] {Threei} and we will buy everything in sight before letting the rest of the market know

[08:39] {ese} morning Vad
[08:39] {Threei} good morning
[08:39] {ese} that sell off yesterday was not the same kind of volume as last thursday
[08:39] {Threei} no
[08:40] {Threei} Europe/Asia reversed losses,
[08:40] {Threei} we are having gap up instead of big down
[08:40] {ese} just looking at that now.....
[08:44] {ese} hmmmmm getting to the point where they've rung out the weak hands
[08:45] {Threei} this point has to come sooner or later
[08:45] {Threei} NCC... I wish I knew what's cooking there
[08:46] {ese} is that a bank?
[08:46] {Threei} yeah, nationalcity
[08:48] {ese} wow.....down from 36.00 high....
[08:49] {Threei} well... just by that you can tell it's a bank :)
[08:49] {ese} assuming the govt is bailing them out as well.....3.00 is a great price
[08:51] {Threei} MORGAN STANLEY RAISED WFC TO OVERWEIGHT FROM UNDERWEIGHT, PRICE TARGET: $40
[08:53] {ese} smart money is going to be picking up shares of banks all over the place.....WFC is free money.....
[09:00] {ese} US banking system needs to do something about the way the back deposits. Canadian system is way more stable. Canadian banks are required to have more gold deposits to back up deposts rather than assets
[09:03] {ese} not sure what it was like down south but it sure didn't seem like canadians were running to the banks to take there money........
[09:03] {ese} seemed like most canadians could have cared less
[09:04] {cosmo} sounds careless
[09:04] {dino} gm all
[09:04] {ese} how so cos?
[09:04] {Threei} dino :)
[09:04] {ese} dino
[09:04] {cosmo} literally
[09:04] {ese} ahh
[09:04] {Threei} it's a matter of leveraging in the fractional reserve system ese
[09:04] {Threei} we all operate in it,
[09:05] {ese} indeed
[09:05] {Threei} but at some point more or less sane leverage, let's say 1:10 or 1:12
[09:05] {Threei} got replaced by up to 1:40
[09:05] {Threei} and new money created by new loans out of thin air turned a system into pyramid standing on its top
[09:06] {dino} just keep 250k or less, you are fine
[09:06] {ese} definately
[09:06] {dino} or, better yet, keep it at brokerage, they carry higher covera amounts
[09:06] {dino} coverage
[09:06] {ese} I understand the leverage thing very well......have to leverage my house every month to stay on this board.......
[09:07] {dino} whats up w/amzn, bloody thing
[09:07] {ese} yuk yuk yuk
[09:07] {dino} lol es
[09:07] {dino} we live on leverage here
[09:07] {ese} ??
[09:08] {cosmo} the need to increase mechanical advantage...
[09:09] {dino} daytrading 4/1
[09:10] {Threei} Why the panic bail-outs? The answer lies in the $55 trillion dollar Credit Default Swap market that is unraveling day to day. Banks and central banks are totally focused on the breaks to the credit ring when up to $400 billion of Lehman Brothers CDS obligations come due in the next week, with nobody at the teller window to pay up.
[09:10] {Onix} Good morning all
[09:10] {Threei} Onix :)
[09:11] {ese} onix
[09:11] {Threei} What this means is that unspecified banks holding the Lehman CDS derivatives will get nothing, and then they will be unable to meet their obligations to other banks. At stake are the Money Market Funds on deposit in these banks. The entire system could collapse, so banks do not want to be in the position of lending to one another. The credit market has failed.
[09:12] {ese} now that should be interesting Vad
[09:13] {ese} I thought those credit swaps had already unravelled.....
[09:13] {ese} end of last month
[09:13] {Threei} I am afraid we are far from that
[09:13] {dptl} good morning all
[09:13] {ese} hmmmmm
[09:13] {ese} dp
[09:13] {Threei} dp :)
[09:14] {dptl} :)
[09:14] {Onix} hi dp
[09:15] {Threei} *SEPT INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION: -2.8% V -0.8%E
[09:16] {Threei} three biggest banks in the world that control well over 90% of the CDS market: JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Citigroup (C), and Bank of America (BAC).
[09:17] {Threei} This crisis will soon be over – but first the bankers must show us they have survived the next wave of CDS obligations coming due this week and next. The answer will be in the share prices of JPM, C and BAC.
[09:17] {ese} they will get bulk of govt bailout probably .....to back stop it.
[09:20] {ese} if the US govt can't backstop it Vad.....we'll use your money...dinos ...and a couple of otheres on the board
[09:21] {ese} probelem solved!!!!
[09:21] {Threei} I'll defend my last $3.62 till last couple of magoo's blood

[09:27] {Threei} and we will buy everything in sight before letting the rest of the market know
[09:27] {dino} i think you will be disappointed
