    It seems that Citigroup plays dirty ever since Japan kicked them out for doing business there, and now they are after Wall Street brokers. Reply

    Sounds like some banker has a photograph of a politician in bed with a live boy or a dead girl. At least in a dictatorship there is less hypocrisy. Reply

    Are Fundamentals Really Driving the Currency Markets? [view article]
    Re ideas 1-5: how about adding a sixth - hedge funds drop 2 and 20 to 1 and 10. (Limited period offer, of course, just while stocks - or should that be Funds - last.)

    Re the USD: it certainly didn't feel like a move based on fundamentals, but it's always good to have feelings backed by some high-powered (if proprietary) technical wizadry. Where did I put those kiwis...

    Hi Lee99. According to Bloomberg it was a miss:

    Shares are down 4%, so FWIW it seems that's how the market is taking it too.

    Excellent coverage as usual. Suggest that you alphabetize earnings report (after close and before open as 2 groups, as now) to facilitate reading. Reply

    Finding Relative Value in Financial Services [view article]
    All of your relative value plays go lower. The financials are melting down again.
    Stay away from all of these names.

    Certainly hope you're wearing shoes while you're out there wading around in the murky swamp of financials. Wouldn't want to see you step on anything nasty and squishy. Having said that, I'd be looking elsewhere...

    ITU (Brazil) Seems to be coming off a low and looks like it might have 25% upside within a 3 month period. It is also on an uptrend. Watch it though. Brazil has a lot of commodity exposure...But it also has a booming internal economy - unlike (err...hack..cough..) the US.

    IBN (India). I'd let it come back up through $28, for what might be a potential double. (Don't buy it now... It's dropping again.) Although India has a lot of problems with infrastructure and barricading itself against outside forces, it could be a nice growth story.

    I'd also look at a nice stop just below the recent lows on either..

    The 'Short and Distort' artists we see destroying the market and companies today are basically supported by organized crime. Buying a quantity of puts beyond which are needed to protect long positions actually held should be prohibited. Naked shorting should have NEVER been allowed, even for market makers and their ilk. Offshore hedge funds seem to think they can operate with impunity from the balmy blue of the Carribean. Local sleezemeisters think they can do so due to SEC oblivion. In the process of shorting, naked or otherwise, the legitimate dreams of many law abiding investors have gone down the toilet. There was a time when investors had faith in companies and trusted that companies would do well over time, despite market perturbations. This healthy confidence has been usurped by liars, cheats, and thieving rumor-mongers who shout 'Fire' in a crowded theatre. The SEC simply must stop this and also reinstitute the uptick rule so normal investors have at least some scintilla of a chance. Reply

    Maybe actually reading the information contained in the study by Arturo Bris would help? The study claims that the stocks in question did worse than others and they did. The caveat that all seem to overlook is that the period the study covers is the first half of the year. Well of course the stocks in question performed worse in the period PRIOR to the emergency order --that is why they were put on protection from the naked short onslaught... Reply
