my pal who is stuffed to the gills with lehman shares and options is not feeling well at the mo

my contact at ubs is not in a good mood

the progression of collapse is coming true in front of our eyes, we of the thread named The Financial Collapse of 2001 and Beyond

my guess is that, with the financials meeting their maker well underway, the commercial real estate will bite the big one as must lehman, and after that, the usual suspects, namely mexico, turkey, brazil, china, etc etc

recommendation: short them all, now that the easy money can be made, in earnest, without shame, and no regret, all is fair and square, above board, before congress legislate against the practice of shorting shares

I find it interesting that Countrywide, which holds our mortgage, bought it from the original lender and never sold it. So they are holding some valuable assets, even though the interest rate is only 5.25%.
