Def/heinz/MB, I suspect much of the recent vertical blast of many dung stocks and dung itself must have put a tremendous strain on the profitability of the houses and big-banks. That should be the case if much of the 6 week long vertical blast is attributable to delta hedging. I can't help but think that it was so easy to make money off call options in the last six weeks. But somebody must have been on the losing end. Is it possible that a danger is lurking on this front and that is why GreeSpam is panicking?

For example, CMB doesn't seem to get a break from relentless selling. BAC is very weak. MER is weak. SCH price decline (despite the monstrous trading volume) is possibly indicating the risk of blow-up due to margin borrowing by retail investors.

Are these pipedreams or possible realities? Thanks (I will hang-up and listen -g-)

PS: I hope I didn't nail another bottom for CMB, SCH, MER, BAC with this note.
