Is Paulson Offloading BofA In Dark Pools?
Some interesting market chatter was recently intercepted: if true, then JP may be quietly offloading at least some part of his financial exposure using dark liquidity.
BAC warrants (BAC/WS/A warrants, 13.3 strike jan 2019 expiration) had a print last night of 30mm at 4:31 (average daily volume of 800k).....Paulson was a holder of 30mm as of his last 13-F....lot of talk floating around as to what the print was all about, and anyone involved is being tight lipped.....I believe it was BAC themselves that put the print up in the Dark Pools.....if anyone has info would love to hear it, otherwise passing along what little info I know......
As noted above, Paulson had exactly 30MM of the Jan '19s as per the last 13F. As a reminder, Paulson sold 30MM BofA
shares in the quarter ending September 30. Which begs the question: is JP using the recent run up in BAC to bail? Any readers with insight are welcome to chime in.

WIKILEAKS!
Speaking of false flags
http://911blogger.com/news/2010-07-22/wikileaks-founder-julian-assange-a...
Meantime BAC targeting 9.5 from 13.45
http://stockcharts.com/freecharts/gallery.html?s=bac
My big wonder is...
Do u think Wikileaks has only 1 or 2 banks on target? how many insurance and trading firms,and conventional companies?....i mean, this is just the iceberg´s upfront, for sure.
and im not Sherlock holmes...
Weakileaks got the exact amount of information the government wanted them to. Then again, Obama has been trying to villinize the banks from day one, so we might get some good stuff.
Tool! Obama doesn't do anything without first getting permission from the banks.
but i thoughts obama is gonna take down the evil 'rich white man'... thats why he had to put kashkari and timmeh in charge of the treasury, give the fed more power, and allow the banks to unload their bad assets through the backdoors at the FRBNY...
cuz he's fighting for 'the people'!
:/
ron paul also denies 9/11 truth in public. so what? just because someone doesn't believe 9/11 is an inside job, doesn't mean suddenly his organization must be a cia/soros conspiracy to shut down the internet. give it a break. some of you are so eager....just sooo eager to put wikileaks down. fact is....they are doing good work and they have ALL the right enemies. i.e. the big losers hate wikileaks. that might mean they are something good....did you ever think about that?
Tyler and ZH Team;
when u have time
Please analyze this...chart

BULLBEAR RATIO AT HIGHS¡¡¡
Gee ... ya think?
Well it obvious they think. Maybe too much.
But do we really give a shit? Just asking....
ZH has been so wrong for so long. It's hard to believe that CNBC has a better, more profitable average than ZH*.
*since ZH began CNBC has had a more profitable run, ex; The Haines Bottom....
yeah and since Zero Hedge started the market has been manipulated to the sum of 5 trillion dollars. Stimulus, MBS circle jerking, QE1,QE LITE, QE2 and many more desperate surprises as well. CNBC is owned by GE...need I say more? Jeff Immelt is on Obama's economic advisory commitee. Everything ZH has pointed out wouldn't have survived without a bailout or a stimulus or some other bullshit way to cover the Ponzi. How can ZH predict such acts of desperation? They can't because they are sensible and understand the consequences from such desperate actions.
So can we agree that if Tyler had a hedge fund that you sure as shit would not invest $$ into it? Manipulation or not, he just does not get it? Maxine Waters would be a better HF manager?
And you'd be a great PM fund manager right Mr. Hot Shot? More like a Armchair QB.
ZH is so bad he scours every article and reads and comments on the message boards habitually. ha, ha. ...what a clown.
+1 , take out the market manipulation and we are Greece, or worse..
I guess if you're chasing returns in milliseconds or even days, Tyler would be a horrible fund manager for the financially inept. In your case, I guess your fund manager must be Warren Buffett or Pimco.
Manipulation or not, you don't get it. Don't confuse luck with skill.
See DARPA...
Once Jeff Immelt was made a director of the NY Fed things started looking up. GE just about doubled since then, you guys all know the monetary bail out details.

the difference between day-trading in unicorns or living in the real world of fundamentals.
The rats are getting out while they can. Also whatever bank (BOA) that will show up it isn't just emails of them saying this or that about the losers buying junk. I bet it will show that they and others knew they where putting together junk and not by chance and it will show they talked about how to mask it to investors.
NO! I refuse to believe that anyone would sell short the future of this shining institution. Can't be. Must be a planted story so that we would go all, "we know that you know that we know that you know..." and rush out to buy things like Blight-o-America.com. This, of course, would be reason to buy the S&P, to boot.
Something smells here, Tyler. After all, who would not love what Blight on America is doing with all those "lost titles" they be carryin'? You don't think Average Joe would be mad about being pledged to six different MBS paper crap devices...you know, so that golden parachute money could be set aside...do you?
More SHOPPING STORIES FOR THE PEOPLE PLEASE, BLOW HORN...pay no attention to anything happening within this corrupt bank.
CAPITAL CANNOT FORM IN BANKS AS CORRUPT AS THESE
Let's see, The Wikileak file is out there, waiting for a decryption key. Does anyone we know have enough money to put a team of <krush, bang, signal lost> Skype still down?
This is scary..
Maybe with OMON option in Bloomberg,....
Dark, light, clear, opaque pools, doesn't matter...
"Transparency" sounds like a good thing until you realize it means that you are coerced into publishing private information that you would like to keep private. Imagine if the government passed a "private data neutrality act" mandating that everyone send all their email through google, everyone make a facebook account and link it to the GPS in their cellular phones so that facebook knows where you are at all times, etc. Transparency, bitchez!
The same is true for one's holdings of securities and one's intent to buy or sell.
Big Brother just had a wet dream.
That's so year 2000.
Where were you in 2006 when the NSA was reported as having a tap on AT&T's voice and data trunks?
Nothing is private. Not phones, not the Internet, not email. Nothing.

The FAZ made a fat reversal from the red into the green.
That's good news, however at this point I think it's impossible for me to win my money back.

Does it amaze you that after all this time Sacrilege cannot even prevent duplicate postings?
Is it a common genetic trait for all behind-the-scene ZH people to be incompetent beyond normal?
Duplicate postings, LoL. For almost 2 years this guy cannot figure out how to fix this..... LoL!
Actually my BAC warrants have jumped 350% in the last 3 weeks. Sounds more like profit taking to cover their silver shorts ;)
And in Paulsons case, he made 60% on those call warants! IN 1 YEAR TIME!
+1, yes im with u,,,
i will post next days US bank CDS 2yrs and 5yrs
13.16 is resistance for BAC next week.
Remember one thing...
Bradley models suggest Turning point 25/26 december, but we have POMO 28,29.......it would be interesting those loads CALL VIX (feb,march) or VXX (till 49´s)
Sudden debt look the divergence between EURCHF and Stocks...CHF making highs vs USD and CHF during last two months...and the stocks up...come on'¡¡¡¡¡ Correlation Across-Assets has been destroyed¡
You must be mistaken. Check your price history again. It's hard to get plus 60% from $9 a year ago to $7.3 last nite.
U appreciate some kind of profit taking in BKX?im outta office
ROACHES! LOOK! Back door of the Roach Motel [SPY]. Get ready with the Raid, brothers. Despite the complete insanity of the intervention on this day...the mirror ball does not seem to be whizzing at the Roach Motel. Interesting.
I would recommend selling things that are priced for dot com [minus oil because L. Blankfein is driving that one just now...and I might add he is driving it straight up Average Joe's keester].
If those freakin' roaches start pouring out...you know what to do.

Sounds like a fitting euphemism.

In late breaking news, Chinese Communists buy Europe. All were made happy on the eve of Christmas, in the year of our Lord 2010, the year of Self-Gifting.
Shiny Bobble futures respond with vertical joy, as Moynihanrots.com announces "Cars as Homes" loans backed by dead puppy collateral, and L. Blankfein corners the entire Middle East oil production for 2011 in five minutes thanks to Ben Bernanke Bananas.

OFF TOPIC BIBLICAL QUESTION.
If the Christ child was also God, then why did "God" have to tell Joseph to get to Egypt?
Why couldn't the baby Jesus tell him? In fact, why was he ever in danger?
Read the Gospel of Mark for a real mind-bending story.
My theory is that the Holy Trinity begins AFTER Christ is crucified.
Holy Trinity? Isn't that Warren Buffett, Bill Gates & Steve Jobs?
Bernanke, Blankfein, and Dimon.
Father, son, and holy ghost.
If your really interested CJ, I would be happy to go through the explaination with you via other channels...
Read the Nag Hammadi texts that will really screw with your head and answer your question .
"OFF TOPIC CATHOLIC QUESTION"
There, fixed it.
Trinity isn't a biblical concept. It's a Catholic concept.
So is Christmas by the way. It existed long before Christ.
Christ was born in late summer / early fall, not winter.
"OFF TOPIC HUMBLE QUESTION"
Why isn't the Trinity include the Mother?
Long after, Council of Nicaea, 325 AD. To the monetary point, the Vatican has always coined money. If it backed its currency with Ag and Au, it might scoop up the smoking remains of Europe a second time and haggle with China over the rest of the paper world.
You'll have a happy new year ifin you're continuing accumulating real monetary stores of value outside the banksters ponzi go round!! This is one stinkin pile of chit paper ready to collapse at a mouse fart of true reality confirming to us rank'n filers, exiting deep pocket rat basturds!!! Ramming speed!!

Shit happens. Dark pools everywhere... look what Obama missed swimming in.. damnit.

Why not nationalize this pos BAC as we
have to pay for it anyway?
H.M.M.M.M?
Of course BAC will be nationalized, but the boyz had to trade it up, down and sideways first.

I am trying to find a reason to care. 75% of the US population does not know there is a depression/recession/ whatever you want to call it happening. BofA my be run by an army of middle aged white male thieves but, they do provide services that make life easier to deal with that local banks cannot provide.
I do not care if Wikileaks has proof that all of the executive officers of BofA sit around on weekends and suck each others' chicken. I do not care if BofA stole $10 Trillion.
I am not moving my accounts from BofA. I am not closing out my equity line of credit that has an interest rate of 3.5%-nor are the other 75% of the population that have accounts there.
Someone wants that stock; and there is a reason- and I do not give a rat's ass what that reason is.
There are two things that diminish my enjoyment of each day. One is rumors about BofA and the other is Sara Palin. If I could just go one day without reading or hearing about these two screw ups I would be happy.
Eyes wide shut = bliss.

Assange is out there somewhere debating if he should let it dribble out over time to savor the prolonged screaming, or just rip it loose all at once and enjoy the flash and the billowing mushroom cloud over Wall Street. So many choices.
Or he might just dibble out the crap on JPM and let rip the junk on BAC. Screams and annihilation. Fun times ahead.

He’s kind of a big fucking deal
Or it just might be the case that neither Assange himself or his cyber-gossip is as big a deal as he thinks.
http://www.businessinsider.com/wow-bank-of-america-bought-sucks-and-blow...
I first saw that embarrassing list of anti-BAC domains in a Journal article. When Rupert has turned on you, the end is not far away.
What a completely asnine ineffective maneuver anyway. As if adding "sucks" and "blows" at the end of each BAC director's name is the one and only way to register an anti-BAC domain. Sheer idiocy.
Its buy the fucking dip time! The battle bots are about to start operation short squeeze.
Look like some of the hedgies are

Who the hell is anyone kidding with any of this today? Seriously, if a free market republic banana tree falls in the forest when no one is there, would the Blow Horn [CNBC] just do another story on shopping?
If thousands years of human struggle on the continent of Europe is suddenly sold to Chinese Communists so that Greek folk can have their cake and eat it too...and everything remains intraday peachy...what planet am I on?
Obviously, I am suffering from oxygen deprivation if anything I am seeing and reading about from under my pile of coats in my closet today is even remotely connected to things that are actually happening...in the world...not my parallel universe.
This market should be sold every single minute of every single day until the crooks in charge of this mess are removed from positions of power.
REAL CAPITAL--WHICH IS DIFFERENT THAN BERNANKE CAPITAL--CANNOT FORM IN BANKS AS CORRUPTS AS THOSE PERPETRATING TODAY'S MASSIVE MARKET MANIPULATION.
I think it is pretty much over, folks...until the will to restore the rule of law emerges again in America.
But of course...WHAT DO I KNOW?
P.S.
Just mentioned on The Blow Horn...again....camels. Way to go irrepressibly adorable Ms. Burnett. What fucking cosmic bunny-hole have I stumbled down?
... remotely connected to things that are actually happening...in the world...not my parallel universe.
Your universe is someone elses parallel universe. Ebb and Flow, it's our turn to be the 'alternative universe'... or so thinks the universe, it seems.

The BAC-Wikileaks thing is a complete farce. If anything truly incriminating was to be released, I'm sure TPTB would step in front of it (think cruise missile into the Pentagon). This is like another bogus stress test of sorts, nothing more. Then again, maybe someone does know something? I hear the Hindenburg is back too (not that this mattered the last time...LOL).
BAC/A sell of 30mio, BAC/B buy of 1Mio at the same time for a price of 2.75.
Would insiders be required by law to disclose this trade? It seems like a hedge against the company going bk.
Insolvent TBTFs don't go bankrupt
under Dodd-Frank. The assets get dissembled
and parceled out.
BAC has been selling the furniture and settling lawsuits like mad lately. I'm too lazy to go find the links though.
