Wow that was like taking Candy from a baby, the Dow futures were
down 300 and bounced and were down only 200, I shorted them and now
they are back down -250, I'm having fun while I wait on Steve to
call me and do the Audio to the Newsletter, the charts are all
done
Matt- I did the exact same thing! Unlike all you other
geniuses I went into the weekend flat and wasl ooking to get
short! We just got that chance. Let's see what happens
next. Great fun!
maggi- One of my accounts is through CMC Markets in London in
the UK. You can trade the major US indices through them as of
6 pm Eastern time on Sunday night and trade 24 hrs /day until
Friday @ 4.15 pm. That's how I, doing it at this
time. Would be interesting to get Matt's take on this!
Matt..........?

futures could bounce if a package is announced by the large
banks, a la long term capital style. noone wants to see a
disorderly liquidation.
as a foreigner can I ask what national government would EVER
allow its major banks to get into so much trouble? this is going to
criple the US economy growth for years to come and the new new york
will now be HK or Singapore

btw. why doesn't congress move to impeach the following (its
possible to impeach someone after leaving office):
Chairman Greenspan
Treasury Secretary Snow
President Bush
Also, what are the chances of the next Attorney General (Fed or
NY) charging all former CEOs and a number of other executives under
the RICO statutes or with conspiracy?
Greenspan -- isn't he emabarressed by what he's done?
No. He continues to speak. He says "housing will bottom
in the firat half of 2009, although prices will continue to drift
lower for at least eight months after that."
Come on you guys! THe geniuses thing was done tongue in
cheek! I did however feel left out not being short! I'm
finally back in the Breakpoint Trades fold! Didn't want to be
left out in the cold (abandonment issues and all) LOL
