Meanwhile, In Front Of The NYSE, They Are Celebrating The "Recovery"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

There may be no flying cars, but at least there are Ferraris.

And what better way to celebrate the pinnacle of the economic recovery, if only for the "0.1%", than by laying out $25 million worth of Ferrari cars in front of the TV studio formerly known as the New York Stock Exchange on the day the legendary Italian carmaker celebrates its $10 billion public valuation courtesy of $13 trillion in central bank liquidity "trickling down" into at least a few select pockets.

Give up. Reality is not scientific nor even mathematical.'s picture

The TBTF banks in complete collusion with the FED are using ZIRP money, money that the TBTF banks never intend to pay back, because they cannot pay it back even at zero interest, because much of it is being scattered around Wall Street in bonuses... They're using this stolen ZIRP money to prop up the highly leveraged stock and bond markets with HFT.  And this massive financial fraud is what is sapping the vitality out of the world economy, everyone and everything in it, like a rapacious, swirling black hole.   There should be no confusion about the long known "moral risk" of such a scheme.

To make this groteque idiocy seem something like more normal, the government is leaning toward legalizing dope, while our own government has become and endorsed the major suppliers of illicit and pharmaceutical narcotics worldwide.

These hope and change doper-progressives need to be exposed for what they are doing.

Moral risk, my ass.  These political people are giving Caligula run for his money.

Another doper-progressive just got himself elected in Canada.  The name "Justin Trudeau" will live forever in infamy.

"Another doper-progressive just got himself elected in Canada.  The name "Justin Trudeau" will live forever in infamy."

it will take decades for Canada to recover after Trudeau (representing moneyed interests) gets done implementiing Corporate and Bankster policy

Trudeau will ratify TPP (loss of sovereignty, NAFTA on steroids, rent seekers, generic drug wipeout, environment degredation, FASCISM)

one of Trudeau's economic advisors include Larry Summers "As Clinton’s Treasury Secretary, he backed banking deregulation, ignored industry fraud, supported its consolidation, promoted anything goes, and spearheaded Glass-Steagall repeal."

It's amazing what you can find just sitting out randomly.  Even in my dumpy farm town of 2,000 there's a vintage Bugatti and a Dusenberg (in addition to a small horde of nouveau riche eurotrash toys, and some other vintage US cars that seem strangely out of place).  

If a car manufacturer is still making a model, then they will sell it with ANYONE with the requisite fiat, which defeats the notion of "exclusive" in the era of modern central banking.

I prefer the 250 GTO from the early 60s. Mine, unfortunately, is only about a foot long. On the other hand, I saved about $15 million that I didn't have anyway. Damn, I wish I could print my own money, just like the Fed.

And just to remind us what the Fed has done to our money, in 1962 one could buy a brand new Ferrari for $12,500, battery included.

HOW WALL STREET GOT IT'S NAME: 

The red people from Manhattan Island crossed to the mainland, where a treaty was made with the Dutch, and the place was therefore called the Pipe of Peace, in their language, Hoboken. But soon after that, the Dutch governor, Kieft, sent his men out there one night and massacred the entire population. Few of them escaped, but they spread the story of what had been done, and this did much to antagonize all the remaining tribes against all the white settlers. Shortly after, Nieuw Amsterdam erected a double palisade for defense against its now enraged red neighbors, and this remained for some time the northern limit of the Dutch city. The space between the former walls is now called Wall Street, and its spirit is still that of a bulwark against the people.[12]

$10 billion is based on the pre-IPO price. Who knows what this bullshit will climb to. IN a day Ferrari could be worth $30 billion.

The IPO is being billed as, "Can't afford a Ferrari, well buy a share of the company so you too can own a piece of a legendary auto."

I truly hope this is the top. I can't think of any better way for the market to crash than to have Ferrari crash and burn.

The car that I've had the most fun driving is a 2000 BMW 540i (automatic with the sports shift and the M-sport package including suspension etc). In Canada, they had the M-sport package from 2000 - 2003. In the USA, only in 2003, the last year of that version of the model (E39). 

If you can wrench (not afraid to work on the car), you can pick one up for a great price and still have years of driving pleasure - even today.

Half of the people in America would quickly become very, very unhappy climbing into and out of a Ferrari in order to commute back and forth to work every day, never mind driving a manual with a heavy clutch in bridge traffic.  If Ferraris were cheap, most people would never go near one.

It is sad the way ordinary people suck up to money and chase expensive brand names. Ever wonder why so many rich people are unhappy? Then, obviously, you've never had much money because money does not fix what is most urgently in need of fixing with regard to the human condition. The poor chase money like people in the desert chasing a mirage...they're so thirsty they cannot be bothered with the notion that the picture of the oasis in their heads is nothing but an illusion.

... mostly because they think it's about having it instead of what to do - or not - with it

but to come back to Ferrari: of course it's not a scalable business like "every person could need/buy a cellphone or even a smarphone", at least not the cars themselves

what is really driving the brand is it's presence in the F1 races (with attached business from ads to memorabilia), and the fans buying into the IPO aren't Americans, they are Arabs (though Asians are also getting more and more into F1)

The system is designed to separate us, one from another, then tries to have us fill that "emptiness" with stuff. Consumerism is a sham, its like a sugar pill sold to the masses, as a cure all for our moralless, antisocial and selfish society. 

 

Constructed and implemented by those on the top, those who control the Fed and the central banking system, as well as just about everything else these days.

If Ferraris were cheap they'd be called Pontiac Fieros or Toyota MR2s.

I love Ferraris-especially the older ones.

That said, when you factor in depreciation, maintenance, insurance, they cost about $10/mile to actually own and drive. Own a Ferrari, and you end up feeding a lot of families-salesman, repairman, insurance agent, detailer, etc.

So, none of my family's 4 cars are from this century, are worth more than $1500 or have less thant 161,000 miles.

Reminder to non Ferrari condescendi, buy three.  These piles of Italy require untold amounts of repair and maintenance.

The dealers don't have mechanics that know what they are doing.  Parts take forever to get.

Then you have to deal with assholes who look down their nose at you, even though they have no clue.

Actually, a just reward for "financial" wizards.

If your Ferrari is in the shop, simply go for a cruise on your yacht.

Ironic, isn't it? On the front of the red Ferrari "race" car is the logo for 'Santander', the largest sub-prime auto lender around. Those guys in the photo are laughing at the debt-slaves, dreaming of their Ferraris, and owng for the next eight years on the Ford.

Edit: except for this one. This one I would definately take out a HELOC on the McMansion and buy. Fuck the bank, they can keep the house. This one you can just cruise away until the wheels fall off.

Why would anyone want to drive a Ferrari on American roads?

They'd be rattling heaps in a few months.

Besides, you can do the speed limit in second gear...

...what are you going to do with the other gears?

Ferraris are f*cking fashion items..and that's it. A neighbor here has a black 458 spyder and drives it like a woman. Cruises around @ 20mph with the top down just to be noticed. 

 

A new Z06 will melt your face at a 1/5th of the cost.

 

Cant wait til options start trading on this turd.

 

Long GM, short Ferrari

You make a valid argument from a price/value comparison if you are just looking for speed. But let's be real- there's no comparing a Ferrari and a Corvette. None. One is a piece of artwork, the other is just a car. The GM engineers have made some strides, but every time I get in my brother in law's corvette and the shit is squeaking all over the place I'm reminded what the new cars will sound like in just a few years.

And to be "Long GM" just means you support crony capitalism, fascism and the Obama administration as a whole. The GM bond holders got fucked in the bailout while the Unions were saved/gifted for their reciprocated support. GM makes me sick, and I will never ever support that company again.

Agree, Farraris are rolling works of art, and I would enjoy driving one at any speed. GM deserves credit for not abandoning an exciting concept; the Corvette. As a working father of 4 I was able to afford an older C4 and drive it to work for 10 years. It made those last10 years a little bit less painful. And it never left me standing on the side of the road like my Honda CRX did.

The color schemes of red, orange and yellow, the balloon tires, they look like toys that come with a Happy Meal.

Picture Ronald McDonald standing there, he'd fit right in.

When I get rich I'll stop by McDonald's and get me a Happy Meal Roadster.
