Hmm, missed that Cramer piece. I've sort of tuned him out since he starting generating content with hourly reports on the success of his B2B stocks in the office pool.

Guess I'll check it out. But he's probably right on this one. Buy it and put it away.

I'm going to have to pound the table on the banks.

I think you can buy just about any bank here and make some serious money if you're willing to hang on for another quarter or two.

The banks are being sold off as furiously as they were in 1990. The only difference being that there aren't any real financial cataclysms behind the selloff. There are some earnings hits and a few problems with credit card units, but these stocks are being priced like banks are doomed to go out of business.

I'm betting that banks are not going out of business and that this rough patch will eventually come to an end.

Just about everything is on fire-sale. I especially like ONE and WM. If you're willing to pay up a bit more for less yield, I think you can also scoop up the majors and money-centers (BAC, CMB, etc.)
