Tht SKF I addid earlier @ 132 is now down to 112... feck. Please tell me it will go back up soon, and that I didn't just make another stupid buy!

I bought at 140, Messie. Didn't see that 600 point turnaround coming...we're not done yet...

They are getting desperate, and in so, increasing the likelihood of a total failure (i.e. crash)

LOL the gov't is willing to create an entity to absorb bad debt from the financials???

I wonder if I can place my losses there as well :)

Unfortunately fellas, it looks like yes, they will try and repeat the S&L bailout w/ an RTC; will it work - probably not. This is, in fact, their absolute last line in the sand. If this fails, it's game over. Period. I've got one lot of SKF I will hold in case this does fail, as it would be catastrophic! Other than that, I'll be scalping trades long and short like always - taking cues from Joe!

Honestly, markets would function better if they were unmanaged. Oh well - got to keep on trading with the flow.
