Default Re: Dow jones -500 / -4.60% level 9865.00

The Dow is nose diving now at -457.58. Seems like the markets are declining more today towards closing time. It's gonna close more worse than yesterday. With this rate of decreasing each day, the stock market won't be around for much longer.

Are you talking about Citigroup? All they doing recently is trying to play tug-of-war with Wells Fargo and snatch Wachovia. What else is new?

Hi ctophil,

DOW closed down 878.27 ! 8.51%

Citigroup went down 12.98%

Bank of America CP got hammered, down 26.23%

JP MORGAN CHASE CO down 10.64%

By the way, the Citi story with Wells Fargo smells. Citi offered $2 a share. Wells offered $6 dolars a share - a huge difference for what was described as a failed bank. Then Citi wants to fight over the attempted sale. Tere must be more than meets the eye here. Right?

Best regards,

Steve

Citi was buying it thinking the Government was just going to take the sunk part of the company... Right after that is when they decided to let banks take bad debt off the books without setting money aside to cover it.

That's when Wells stepped in and offered the higher price without government assistance.

Germany takes hot seat as Europe falls into the abyss


We face extreme danger. Unless there is immediate intervention on every front by all the major powers acting in concert, we risk a disintegration of global finance within days. Nobody will be spared, unless they own gold bars.

We are fast approaching the point of no return. The only way out of this calamitous descent is “shock and awe” on a global scale, and even that may not be enough.

I don't know what "extreme danger" you speak of, because we are in the 5th night of the Galactic cycle. Read some literature concerning the Mayan prophecy. Relax. We are on a schedule.

Default Midnight tonight, Short Selling begins...

http://www.reuters.com/article/ousiv...497BQZ20081008

Quote:
WASHINGTON/NEW YORK (Reuters) - At midnight on Wednesday, U.S. regulators will restore investors' rights to make bearish bets on financial stocks but few expect it to put an end to wild swings in the market.

For nearly three weeks, investors who bet on falling stock prices have been prohibited from short selling more than 950 companies under an experiment by securities regulators to restore equilibrium to a fragile financial system.
They had the option to extend the ban until the 17th, but decided not to wait...

dow jones -682 / -7.96 / LEVEL 7896 AND GOING DOWN LOOK AT WORLD STOCKS http://money.cnn.com/data/world_markets/index.html

Hong Kong Hang Seng IS N/A Hong Kong HSCC Red Chip IS N/A

Germany DAX -474.78 -9.72%

France CAC -332.59 -9.66%

A Bank Holiday is moving from possible to PROBABLE.

Have you fully protected yourself?

Have you distanced yourself as much as possible away from financial agents holding your assets?

Have you gotten paper certificates for your shares or became a direct registration book entry at the transfer agent?

Have you protected your retirement accounts the same way as your shares above but in the name of the retirement account and the trust holding them?

Have you closed your Money Market fund accounts regardless of what assurances your bankers offer?

Have you withdrawn from your Credit Union?

Have you exited your corporate retirement fund?

Do you have significant gold and related shares investments?

It is getting UGLY out there as each day an attempt to postpone a bank holiday fails. Almost every other day lately financial leaders of the world have announced new plans that were "the final answer" to the super-glued credit market. All these plans have had no effect. The Dow fell like a rock off a cliff.

Hi everybody!

Today, the markets are rallying! Woohoo!! Everything will be just ok! Not...I'm tired of this ****. They keep trying to save the old system and making people like us look bad. "Uhh, you're just a doomsayer. The U.S. gov't will save us! It's such a resilient economy!" And then, people blame everything on me for the failure of my business, etc. *sigh* I'm so tired, everyone. We are obviously in a global collapse right now, and all these nations are taking ownership of banks left and right. Socialism across the U.S. and beyond is killing our society. But yet, there are still people who cares not and goes on with their "normal" lives. What am I to do?

Hi ctophil,

This rise in the DOW and other main bourses is because the goerments hae just injected trillions of dollars to prop up failing banks and banking system, so for the short term there will naturally be a short term rise in the markets, as, in the short term, the banks situation is 'solved'. Everything that was lost over the last couple of weeks could make someone an awful lot of money, over the short period.

I posted in another thread what I thought about the possible repercussions of nationalizing banks: http://www.projectavalon.net/forum/s...ead.php?t=5195

Sorry to hear about your company.

Best regards,

Steve
