Mr. Scotsman, (of course these are all 12/31/07 numbers, so they have already recorded some of the loss in the investment, but Morgan Stanley can't like a 560 million loss in one quarter... From Yahoo (major holders in Bear Stearns): BARROW, H…

Matthew... I think you are doing a bit better than 400% now....

Who was the idiot saying people should short CFC????? My goodness, Bear Stearns is off the charts... that buy out is less than two cents on the dollar for an investment last summer. $10,000 last summer is now worth $133.... Please, someone tell m…

Rosy, I understand what you are saying, but it is possible. Anyway, I thought I could just short your stock in CFC... How big a window do you want to give me to replace your stocks? CFC might become a very good long possition pretty soon anyw…

Okay, last time this post was updated was January 18th. At that time CFC was at $4.96, today we are at $4.50. Please tell me someone out there is profiting from this short possition......

Deejayoh, If the Federal goverment turn into some type of quasi bond insurer, it guarantees the state bonds, they by making them no different than T-Bills. I think it would be highly inflationary. Then there is the complexity of these bonds bei…
-
Nell, so basically what you are saying is you think the Federal Government should provide insurance on the Munis?? The end game to all these bailouts is a huge amount of money from the goverment, which can only be inflationary.....

My feeling is it will be a lot easier to make good purchase decisions this summer, after the second quarter numbers are out for all the companies. At that point a person can look at the real P/E ratios and make some educated decisions about long ho…

I like how Bernanke is referenced in the paper. The paper has some great charts and graphs... Good link MrRational.

Mr. AwaySooner, please be gentle... There might be people on this blog that bought Drugstore.com (DSCM) at $67 back in 1999 who are waiting for it to recover.... it is still under $3 a share, but will spring back any time now. (same could be sai…

Sorry to hear you have limited options.... I guess I just got lucky, which is highly unusual for me...

"Lake Hills Renter - My 401k has lost ~10% so far in 2008" Okay Mr. Lake Hills Renter, there is absolutely no excuse for you to loose 10% in this market. You are active enough on this site to know better!!!!! And by the way, all you with 401(…

Laxtosnoco - Retention bonuses??? no, those are legal defense funds for all the upcoming class action law suits. The BAC deal will excelerate the decline of CFC, BAC now just has a very heavy hand on CFC, and CFC will loose any competive edge the…
-
Deejay, your $7.55 price seven days ago did not last very long, back at $5.42. BAC might have to step in a bit faster than they wanted too, CFC bonds got down graded again today. Hopefully AnySooner was able to ride the wave...

Sorry, don't mean to be a kill joy here, but why is the husband paying the bill a bad thing, and the tax payer paying the bill a good thing? I am not trying to be totally cold about the realities, or people possitions in life.
-
Deejayoh..... if BAC buys, then price doubles, if BAC pulls out, CFC drops off the market in weeks, not months. CFC is in the land were only inside traders are making smart plays on the stock. Given that today the trading volume has been arou…
-
Could some one, in an unbias way, tell me what BAC has to gain in this transaction? Realistically, what do they have to gain they could not buy for themselves without taking on the unknowns inherant to CFC?
-
Finance - Sir, the problem is, little people like me do not have spread sheets big enough to really understand how CFC finances it's self. I read their financial statements, and notes, and at the end I was lost as to were the money was going to com…

SunTzu, you are totally correct. The only wild card in all of this is how many loans WM might have to buy back that are worthless. All it would take is some judge somewhere to say there was fraud in the loan process, and many loan originators woul…

WaMu is too big to fail. Mr. McManus, you obviously are new to this site, and do not realize anything as big as WaMu is too big to be worthless. Thank you. (Please disregard anything I have said about CFC in the past related to this fundamental…

Oh, if one could only time selling puts on CFC.... got below $7 today... BAC... CFC close the year at $8.94, so Bank of America will have to post a comprehensive loss on investment in CFC of over a billion dollars... (I believe the stock was con…

Well, CFC at 8.42 at the end of closing today.... I hope AwaySooner is covering those puts he was talking about on 11/30/07... back when CFC was at 11.22

The guy has to make a living (you should see his website for the types of loans offered.....) but at the same time be honest about what is going on. Between a rock and a hard place is he....

This post is not complete till you have the ZipRealty information... Price Reduced: 07/18/07 -- $515,000 to $507,000 Price Reduced: 07/29/07 -- $507,000 to $497,000 Price Reduced: 09/12/07 -- $497,000 to $490,000 Price Reduced: 09/22/07 -- $49…

Just wondering, do the smaller communities (say Ellensburg, Stanwood, etc.) have a different dynamic when it comes to lending than the larger cities do? I realize the loans for the most part wind up flowing way upstream, but is there a different dy…

S-Crow -- Everett is special, they have the Navy and Boeing. But then if you really want to see special, go to Marysville, they have the Casino. So if WaMu gets out of Wholesale in Bellevue and Everett, who are the smaller players that are depe…
