FINal(er) Countdown
UPDATE: MS just traded $11.99 -3.77% on the Egan Jones downgrade news
Overnight saw credit markets crushed overseas in Australia and Asia,
Europe continue to sink into the abyss and now pre-market equities in
the US are showing serious weakness with no sign of a bounce. We already
discussed CDS this morning (which are all gapping wider and the curve
inverting/flattening further, and the Waffle train just keeps on coming,
now +35 at 303/313) but a quick look at pre-market stocks
shows the pain in the TBTFs:
- BAC -2.7% at $5.38 (at 3/12/09 levels)
- MS -2.2% at $12.2 (at 12/03/08 levels)
- C -2.3% at $22.58 (at 3/16/09 levels)
- GS -1.6% at $88.6 (at 3/11/09 levels)
- JPM -2.1% at $28.05 (at 4/08/09 levels)
- WFC -1.6% at $22.8 (just above recent lows)

Sucks to be broke.
No, really. it does.
I wish someone would dig up some skeletons on Wells. I'd tired of this image that they're the "safe" bank right now.

Senate Assistant Majority Leader Richard Durbin [D-IL] responds hotly to Bank of America's
announced assessment of debt card fees, telling the bank's customers to
"vote with your feet and get the heck out of that bank."
Change diapers before trading starts!
ASSRAEP.
Every. Single. One. Overvalued.
Maybe BAC should do a 10 to 1 reverse split.
I hope FAZ does a 2:1 split very soon.

Didn't the preferred stock he received in his BAC deal give him the right to redeem his shares for par at ANYTIME of his choosing? If so, he's fine....unfortunately.
Warren Buffett is jerking off without success.
Interestin' sentence.
This has got to be bullish. Ima sell my gold and jump into equities with both feet!
This is bullish...for treasuries
smart move to get away from that risk filled metal not backed by anything.
Short the ever-living shit out of everything that Cramer says is 'fine' or a buy and you'll be a millionarie in short order.
PIIGS and Waffles for breakfast!
it had to be, and it was expected by many that after QE2 stocks will tank. Zerohedge was one of the first to note it. Now they are doing it, e.g. compare to the chart I made in February 6th 2011:
http://saposjoint.net/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2626&start=0#p30485
What follows is relatively slow, but accelerated tanking till approx DJIA 7000 in March 2012. After that, a bump up, either in expecations of USD devaluation ( not to be materialized though), or just a normal reaction to oversell- post oversell ( inverse peak crach ) rebound. Than down again, and so on during 2012-2013 ( here is longer prediction chart, made in April 2011):
This one says DJIA will reach even 6000 briefly in early 2013.
http://saposjoint.net/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2626&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=180#p31988
I have even longer prediction up to 2014 which I have not published yet- it does not look much better, in general, still below 8000.
You're disregarding the effects of roaming zombie hordes...
is BAC's online accounts running? up here in canada, we're just curious!
running on methane gas from all the bs...
seriously though I have no idea, I dropped all 'associated' banks 15 years ago
Because this is not my industry I don't know where to get the info. Does anyone have a link to where I might find the CDS for Barclays? TIA
WTF- 1000% 10/4/11
The bank raised its 2012 forecast for gold 19% to $1,850 a troy ounce, while upping its 2011 outlook by 5% to $1,575/oz. It added that it expects investment demand to be "sufficiently large" to drive gold above $2,000/oz during the second half of 2012, with a high of around $2,200/oz looking "possible.

LUXEMBOURG (Dow Jones)--The International Monetary Fund must make a clear statement of its position on Greece if the troika working on the country's aid package gives a negative report, Austrian Finance Minister Maria Fekter said Tuesday.
Fekter also said a positive recommendation from the troika, which also includes the European Commission and the European Central Bank, was a prerequisite for the payment of the next tranche of Greece's bailout program.
Troika representatives are in Greece to verify whether the troubled Mediterranean country fulfils its austerity pledges and debt targets.
"If these [troika] reports were not to turn out positive, then we expect a clear statement by the IMF on whether it still is a part of the Greek project--yes or no," Fekter said after a meeting of European Union finance ministers. "If the IMF exits, then Austria can't pay the loans [to Greece] either."
Fekter also said that there still is no consensus among euro zone countries on whether the European Financial Stability Facility, the euro zone's bailout fund, should gain a banking license.
The Austrian finance minister said she isn't in favor of the EFSF buying too many sovereign bonds from troubled euro-zone countries, as she doesn't want the fund to turn into a bad bank that way.

How is Warren Buffet right now with all the shares of these big banks he owns?
Great time to buy low and sell lower.
The hot rumor to turn this thing around and kill all the shorts is coming, count on it people.
Be careful out there. There are bulls and bears, but most of all there are wolves who hunt either as prey.
let me say first that I am shocked at censorship practiced in some forums.
I have banked at BofA since they aquired Barnett Bank many years ago.
Yesterday I suggested the wife stop at the Bank and pull a little extra cash and upon arrival she was stunned by the scene at hand enough to call me saying she thought she was seeing a bank run in progress. Parking was overflowed into adjacent lots the ATM were down and four security guards were posted at door to keep order. The line moves quick enough but when she gets to the teller she is told that a $250 withdrawal limit is in place,no exceptions!After a brief exchange, during which the wife demanded a somewhat larger amount, the teller threatened to call security to remove her from premises...at this point everyone in line can hear their discussion and the wife pulls out her phone and dials 911 to report a theft in progress by BofA...the bank then relented allowing the exact amount she wanted to withdraw prompting cheers from the rest of the people in line...hilarious.
Sen. Dick Durbin, ia an inspirational guy it would seem.

an email from my parents after I warned them about BoA troubles:

Hi ****
thanks for the warning. we will be taking the bulk of out BofA money
out tomorrow.
tell u more details over the phone.
I’m just waiting for a slew of highly paid analysts and market reporters to start popping up like mushrooms and tell us what a great buy the financial sector is now because it’s been oversold and undervalued. I wonder if it will be the same bunch of talking heads that told us the same thing last time?
Why is Citi leading the charge down today? I thought it would be MS then BAC and a bunch of also rans.
Well done! Thank you very much for professional templates and community edition sesli chat sesli sohbet
