The Last Days of Lehman Brothers

From the reader mailbag:

I have no idea this is real, but it looks cool for the non-UK views who have been neglected.

Meanwhile, various consumer junkers such as clothing retailers, airlines, and furniture stores are rocketing today...

New investment plan: SPX is over the 38.2 two-year Fib retracement, so any stock below its two-year 38.2 Fib is a great investment choice.  After all, every stock has to correct to the broader market at some point...right?

JPM upgrades in airline sector...US Death airways and i think the other was UAL.

I just can't wait until FHA goes public.  I'm all in with available cash and all of my profits from AIG, which currently has a cost basis of 55.90; i'm gonna be rich on that one.

volume on SPY gets more worser every day and airlines zooming on decreasing load factors and buoyant oil prices?

Diarreah casinos like RCL will be decimated by swine flu soon, and GS goes to 52 week highs.

Yea, no volume anywhere. Something doesn't feel right.

If you read carefully, "this is real "leads to a link to a torrent file.

I like the tag "REAL".

Looks like you'd need to install bittorent, which I don't recommend - virus waiting to happen

Perhaps someone can convert to .pdf or .doc

How well do movies convert to a PDF or doc? Hint -- not well. BTW, bittorrent is a protocol, not a program.

Didn't know it was a movie as I don't open torrent files. Perhaps Marla can provide a copy on the ZH server

I should have added 'With the author/creator's permission'. My bad

utorrent is virus free as far as I now. The downloaded files might contain viruses so of course you need to exercise discretion.

Usually no problem at all with simple .avi downloads, especially from the BBC. Watched all of Spooks from mininova.org--no problems whatsoever. Also downloaded the Ascent of Money--entertaining for the family and some really great history. I do have great virus protection but have only encountered one virus in years of downloading and it was my own fault. You can download Lehman provided you have utorrent at mininova.org. Search for Last Days of Lehman, check for the most # of seeds, leechers, comments and go forth.

I watched the beginning. I was also employed by Lehmans until the end. The programme was crap - the script was so bad I couldn't stand to watch it

you are missing nothing

Thanks for your review.  Me thinks most of us ZH'ers will choose to make that decision on our own.

how is it employees of Lehman, one of the nation's arch criminal orgs aren't up on aiding & abetting charges? 'I was just following bilking orders your honour' foreclosure filings just topped 300,000, don't suppose you'd be interested in details like that though. to be precise, 358,471 for the month of August. Lehman, chain-reactor $613B debt-scammerscum.

A torrent file to download a 550mb video clip is a virus?

Keep drinking the kool-aid.

No, but many torrent clients have viruses.

Usually the ones that are .rar files--this is not. It is a simple .avi--tis a rare virus embedded in an .avi.

for those of you who have torrents blocked at work, use www.torrent2exe.com right click the torrent link, and paste into the box. download the file which is an .exe and it will bypass the torrent blocking. it will also let you d/l torrents without installing a torrent program like azreus

That's right. These markets were meant to shake everyone out and then just carry into an event. That event should form a final resolution. But I don't think anyone will be happy with it.

Review of the film from FT Alphaville:

You can see highlights of script and cast phots there if you don't want to watch the whole thing

I think Ben B. and government action has saved us from the big crash. I think we are in the middle of recovery and should be fine by Christmas.
A lot of people I know say that we are in depression. That is why I think that the heard is missing it.
Just my opinion.

Jesus people, uTorrent is fine, you can get a virus downloading anything... Just watch the movie here:

There is a Fight Club reference at 22:00 that makes the whole shite worth watching.

Very fun to watch.  It was only an hour long... I wasted more of my life seeing GI Joe with my kid.
