Bernanke's Savior From Embarrassment: 1999 Hookers
Funny how Bernanke was skewered today on his inept mismanagement of the credit crisis and subsequent bust and bailouts. Of course, in order to avoid outright humiliation and embarrassment, he ordered the boys at Goldman to vacuum pump some key stocks in order to stave off an unfriendly market reaction to his miserable testimony.
And what better sector than the "Supermodel" semiconductors? After all, it is the most favored group in history, since it already has the envious record of participating in the biggest bubble of all in 1999, along with subsequent mini-bubbles the last 10 years.
He immediately instructed the GS Prop Desk to start dryhumping these so they would immediately show up on all the stock scans this morning as to day's "momentum play".
The 19-year old joystick junkies just love chasing these drama queens:
And check out FSLR, another broken down high baller who checked out of rehab today:
And hey, if that doesn't work, then watch out for some more sector upgrades tomorrow so Bernanke can further "resubstantiate" his reputation.....
Looks like he had a head start already on the mortgage insurers today:
MTG, RDN, ABK, MBI, etc.

I like boats.
I like the Golden Sachs upgrade of the REITS today, very timely.
Clark Winter of SK Capitol was on the trading floor with CNBC this afternoon with comments about how the rest of the World was watching in disbelief as the chairman of our "most credible institution" was roasted, along with Tiger Woods, our formerly most credible golfer. If that was'nt enough CNBC followed up with Christina Romers take on the jobs summit.
Va va va voooom!!
Someone forgot to upgrade the banks today? Have to check the calendar to see who's turn it was today...
Robo,
I ALWAYS enjoy the pictures, but careful that last one. She's got an exposed headlight. Not that I mind, but, you know for the sake of others who may be more sensitive. ;-)
BTW, FAZ may be the new FAS. How 'bout them BAC cowgirls! Don't know how to hold onto those pumped-up news releases.
If you enlarge it, cut the contrast and squint... you can see nip.
Didn't even notice, I was too distracted by her other beautiful standout attributes.
I don't see it.
that's not an exposed headlight, it's a shadow from the quilt stitching.
that's not an exposed headlight, that's a shadow from the quilt crease.
Cursive you have excellent eyesight! I not sure it is what you think it is though.
RobotTrader excellent piece as usual with highquality pics as always. I am betting you have at least a 1TB of girlie pics stashed on a separate drive.
Keep up th egood work and yes FAZ looks like it is on the move...finally.
GS upgraded the REIT sector today
The better to short it in the New Year, Little Red Riding Hood...keep your eye on SRS. It may look hard done by, but is setting up to soar like a big bird...
Well it sure didn't stick.
Maybe they have cried wolf too many times with the REIT's. Seems like they get upgraded daily.
BTW - the last pic has the most perfect curves I have seen in a while...don't tell the misses.
You take the blonde, I'll take the one in the turban. It's going to be a long night, if you need any help with the girls...

I think steve is dead...
Everything is photoshopped, never forget.
That sounds like a perfect motto for the market!
ANF and ARO got bitch slapped today like a cry baby wrestler. Looks like a good short with some follow through tomorrow?

Sweet Samson's Sister that Marissa Miller is fine.
Can we get a link to the source for Bernanke's order(s) to Goldman?
Would be much appreciated. Otherwise, I think your premise may be merely sensationalism. I'm no Bernanke fan, to be sure, but I do like to stay on the side of realism.
Get bent.
GS is the mother of all manipulators. Ben and da boyz are all in this together, under the guise of "protecting Americans from severe systemic risk".
Bla bla puke!
And WRT to the pic..... I'm all over that a$$. What headlight?
I was born bent, Mr. Bag-on-Head.
All I would like to see is some civil and objective discourse.
That ain't too much to ask.
Perhaps one of those little emoticons indicating sarcasm for posts that readers should take with a dose of skepticism and humor? (Insert one here while we're at it...) I thoroughly enjoy RoboTrader's posts! I look forward to the posts because they are chock-full of facts, charts, and easy-on-the-eye intermissions. This particular one just seemed a little spoiled by over-the-top rhetoric about conspiracy and such.
When we (I mean supposedly intelligent and market-savvy readers) expect truth and transparency from our Washington and Wall Street folks, we should offer the same.
I'm just sayin'....
Here's a link for ya copper:

When WAS the last time anyone saw Steve?
Sorry bud, you lost me after that first chart,err pic! Let me eat dinner and come right back at you with my market commentary.
Too bad he didn't have them do something about GS. I had been thinking their stinko last month or so was a diversion but now even the weekly chart is breaking down. There comes a point where all the forensics in the world have to bow to what the price is saying and right now GS is in crummy shape.
