One of my favourite qoutes happens to be:... Remember I have no predictive powers - well it seems even I have it once in a while... Leh will soon be history - my good friends at Lehman sending me goodbye notes - I am sad to see these good people lose their jobs due to one of the most incompetent management teams in history. Too big too fail ----
Well moving on .. all night Fed, Paulson and their merrymen been busy telling us everything is fine.. but..
- AIG is next - asking for Fed help according to WSJ
- Consortium of banks (9 in all) will put forward 50 bln. to save their own ass
- Bank of America will be nationalised inside one year - why would you buy Merril stocks @ 25-28 USD, when they could have been bought for 13 or less in the market?
Whats next?
Fed cuts rates Tuesday - this could be the 2nd worst Monday in history - be warned....The SEC- useless as they are could reinstitute: uptick rule, no short selling.....The US is moving fast and furious towards: The Socialist State of America.
Friends - be extremely careful now - this is even for old hand like me unique circumstances - fortunes will be lost and made in the next 72 hrs - make sure you understand the game, please!
Strategy:
Still same: Long EUR/USD, JPY, short-end FI, short Dax and S&P- cash at 75%...
