      Shorting U.S. Government Risk
      TexM3, that's deplorable. What you should find stupid is how we let a few people destroy our confidence and economy by allowing such blatant rumor-mongering, naked shorting, and gangshorts; and NOT done anything about it.
      I am so happy that you have been able to bet against everyone so successfully.

      The Failure of TARP and the Government's Solution
      The failure is not in the TARP or Paulson, but rather it still lies with Cox and our society’s inability to see past the curtain and pay attention to the people that hide behind it.

      The 4 Golden Rules:

      1. Reinstate the Up-tick rule
      2. Crack down on naked shorting
      3. Institute some rules on what should be said on National TV to prevent rumor-mongering

      >>>>>&g... Pass a Wind-Fall Capital Gains Tax of 65% on ALL short sales retroactive to 01/01/08.<<<&...

      I find that just a mention of shorting anything that has to do with our society as a whole at this point in time - Deplorable! Just deplorable!
      When is enough enough?

      General Electric: Genuine Risk of Collapse?
      <<The virtual crash in its stock price indicates that there is something seriously wrong with GE.>>

      This should read: The virtual crash in the stock market indicates that there is something seriously wrong with short-term trader mentality and the lack of regulations on short sellers.

      If we don't do something about these 2 things soon, we ALL will have a lot more to worry about then just GE's stock price.
      BTW: your article is total bs.

      Less Negativity, More Inflation
      I really don’t understand what we are trying to accomplish here? We allowed a very small group of individuals to destroy our confidence in the muni bond system, then we allowed them to destroy our confidence in the mortgage system, then we allowed them to destroy our confidence in the investment banking system, then we allowed them to destroy our confidence in the commercial banking system, then we allowed them to destroy our confidence in the insurance system, then we allowed them to destroy our confidence in our financial markets, and now we’re allowing them to destroy what little confidence we have left in OURSELVES! Yeah, we all stopped spending in October, what do you expect when all the pundits, media, and so-called financial experts keep telling us a depression is coming. Well, be very careful what you wish for! I said well over a year ago that all the negativity back then would make things end very badly – well we’re there. Oh yeah it can get a lot worse, but what’s the point. IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Memo to Warren: AmEx Preferred at 15%, Warrants at $12
      Maybe so, but if he's going to use his pulpit through political leaders he financed into office, then he should have been more willing to be a promoter of the greater good and not it's destroyer.
      I hope his practice of having surrogates put companies into financial trouble so he can pick up the pieces, is not utilized by the innocents he just help get elected.

      Here's my memo to Warren:

      Hey Mr. Bigshot,
      If you had just not been such a wise guy 1 year ago and had just invested in Ambac and MBIA without some absurd limits, maybe just maybe, this entire financial mess could have been prevented.
      Think about it!

      Sirius Reverse Split Only "to Satisfy Listing Requirements"
      Reverse splits do NOT work!! To heck with the Nasdaq and thier listing. So we go Pink, certainly can't hurt the stock price that much more. All a reverse split will do is give shorts more wiggle room to drive the stock right back down again.
      In a market like this, trying to make the Nasdaq happy is NOT in SIRI's best interest. Hey, it was the Nasdaq's total lack of control over 'Hedge Funds Gone Wild' that has driven the price to $.25 in the first place.

      NO REVERSE SPLIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      More on TARP and the Insurance Industry
      A paln that WORKS for allof us:

      Take a small amount of that ‘Rescue plan’ = maybe 20 billion and buy back the CDO’s of the muni bond insurers (Ambac, MBIA) – RIGHT NOW! Recapitalize them, as Sec. Dinallo of NY wanted to do 10 months ago.

      Make sure the ratings agencies then immediately upgrade the ratings back to AAA, which they said would happen. Then come up with a universal set of rules that those agencies must play by.

      Have the FED give an implicit guarantee to ANY NEW insurance policies written on the bonds. Basically guarantees the bond’s triple A, not the policy or the company just the bond until new triple A can be found. Doesn’t cost a nickel.

      Have the Fed could kick in an incentive for any bonds issued for Capital Projects to help with employment and infrastructure.
      NOW the municipalities can issue bonds and BUILD.. BUILD.. BUILD. Puts people back to work. Pays our bills, etc. We need the bond insurers restored back to normal and we need it now. Solves ALL the issues at little or less costs.

      Finally Some Good News for Sirius Shareholders
      WRONG! Reverse splits rarely if EVER work! All they do is allow more wiggle room for shorts to short. The price inevitably goes back to where they want it, no matter how many shares are outstanding.

      Screw the Nasdaq and their rules. At $.35 who cares where we're listed.

      NO REVERSE SPLIT! I'VE MADE THE SHORTS RICH ENOUGH!

      Is Citigroup Laying Off Analysts?
      I guess we have to surmise that the entire Citi selloff and therefore the entire current financial crisis was due to this anal-ysts bullish recommendations on SIRI. He was going with the anti-Goldman view so they took down Citi to get this guy fired.
      lol

      Did the Short Selling Ban Work?
      How can it work when some stocks and people, are still allowed to short their brains out with impunity. The 2 examples you used are a prime example – these 2 ETF’s still can be shorted and have been gangshorted up the ying-yang. The XLF especially! Hey, all true negative shorts needed to do was keep shorting the XLF like crazy while buying puts on anything else they wanted.
      Individual stocks? We don’t need no stincken’ individual stocks!

      We really have really given ourselves a big headache and the tail is truly waging the dog.

      DRILL.. DRILL.. DRILL.
      BUILD.. BUILD..BUILD.

      Only way out.
