      Setting the Record Straight: Taxpayers Not Funding JP Morgan's Bear Buyout
      sorry for the test results, but my first comment was erased: as follows: this author is a sophist. Clearly, the 29B is a taxpayer liability, of which some, perhaps all, will eventually be realized, making us that much poorer, other things being equal. And if this isn't clear to you, you must be from an academic background, mastering the art of obfuscation. Everyone else sees the Bailout for what it is.

      Yang is Back! And So Is MicroHoo
      All the posts like this that don't actually source anyone but just refer to "insiders" are kind of worthless. Of course, the "insiders" would like everyone to think a deal may happen so they can sell out at a higher stock price.

      Yet Another Reason Not To Sell Your Berkshire Hathaway Shares
      I'm with Jay, I don't think that trade ever occured. It does not appear on the "low" quote on Yahoo finance or elsewhere.

      Should We Force a Housing Bottom?
      $3,000 per American worker - that is what this bill will cost; all to transfer money from the prudent to the imprudent. One of the greatest thefts in American history!

      Where Will Yahoo Close Today?
      You say that "At $32bn ($22/share), Yahoo! will trade at 16x EBITDA and that's not including the impact of their cash, their Yahoo! Japan stake, and their Alibaba stake which together add up to $14bn of value or $10/share." But in fact all of their asssets, including cash, Japan, and Alibaba ARE included in the earning figures from 2007? This stock traded at 19 before the bid, why would it trade for more now?

      Subprime Mortgage Losses: Not as Bad as Advertised
      As others have mentioned, I wonder where the $282B number came from? The only way that the losses from that segment would be zero, as the author implies, is if they were actually paid down by the borrowers, which I would geuss never happened. Normally you would not have half the borrowers refi within 2 years, so what is happening here? And if the $282B are in fact refis, what is the default rate on that new money? It has just moved from one pocket to another? Of the total $600, I would guess that at this point almost none of it has really been taken out of the loan pool, through borrower payment, and very few of the foreclosed houses have actually been sold to new owners, so almost none of the $600 is really "paid off".

      Lululemon Athletica Discovers the Benefits of Staying Focused
      Amazing that someone could write an alalysis like this without mentioning how expensive this merchandise is. So $51 dollar tee shirts and $100 sweat pants are "immune from macroeconomic" forces? We shall see.

      Bill Gross: If Housing Prices Decline Further, So Does the Economy
      DCM, just who was it that forced the poor homeowners to take out these 100% loans to buy huge houses they could not afford? Were the elite holding a guy to the head of these people?
