Hiding Bear Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 Yep, Captain's Log and his avatar have it all:Scatalogical reference Political satire Market Comment Clever puns Pop Culture statement Great graphics without having to resort to use of breasts Mousey, welcome back. Your username and avatar are classic! My username could use a little work. And Sam Clemens sittin' on the can is pretty lame as well. If the "s" in paul-s stood for Sam then the man on the can could be Sam but it's scatalogically clear even though Mark Twain is revered that the stools in this avatar have no place to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tchaikofsky Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 Fox to hens: We'll guard the house . . . Morgan Stanley: Let's heal ourselves BOCA RATON, Fla. (CBS.MW) -- John Schaefer, president of Morgan Stanley's individual investor group, said it is not up to regulators to fix problems within the securities industry. Schaefer, speaking to a standing room only crowd at the Securities Industry Association annual meeting Thursday, called on firms to work harder to restore public trust and confidence. "We simply need to work harder next year to make more progress on trust and confidence," he said. "It is time for all of us to take a fresh look at the way we do business." Schaefer acknowledged that Morgan Stanley (MWD: news, chart, profile) has had its own problems and has "room to improve." In October, William Galvin, Massachusetts's top securities regulator, subpoenaed Morgan Stanley regarding its mutual fund trading practices.

growler Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 Madame - apparently you didn't get the Bernanke memo. "...inflationary pressures likely will remain subdued". Seems to me that states, cities, and local govts need to get with the program and "exclude" all costs that put them over budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FeedFool Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 rog: by the end of the day that should be up 200,000, then they can beat by a penny and report 300,000. No way we they dissappoint, they have control both the pencil and the erazer. Eraser comes real handy dandy when they revise the fictitious numbers. Which is a regular occurrence. I am looking for 3 millions new jobs, those numbers are from china but we should include them in. Since Bush did throw $1 trillions Jamboree party.

Just give everyone back all the money that was dishonestly taken, and surrender all the bonuses and such that were provided based on that criminal behavior. And let's have prosecutions of every single last one of those who betrayed a fiduciary responsibility, with only maximum sentencing, and hefty fines to their firms, even if it means that one or two dissappear. Yeah... sure. Then I'd be happy to see them self-police.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FeedFool Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 Soup, the only way to describe this is unfortunate, the exact opposite of AG's term. On a slightly different note, WH and I are freaking. The city sent us a new property assessment today. Up 62% from when we bought it in the latter half of 1997. It's 25% higher than the valuation our bank put on it, which is about in line with the market value we had in mind. Our city took on a couple of crazy debt-financed expansion projects in the bubbleyears and taxpayers are having to cough up now. What better method to raise funds than to raise property valuations? What a joke! The small print reads, "Please remember, your new assessed value reflects changes in the real estate market over the past two years." Are they going to adjust them downward when RE starts tanking? I fear this is leading to an unwelcome increase in inflation in the WH household. Is that what deflation looks like? Now I know What Greenspan is seeing. Deflating wallets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy_Dent Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 Economies of countries around the world are growing this year, as are almost all of their stock markets. Even Japan and Germany, economies no. 2 and 3, are improving, after having been pronounced basket cases 8 months ago. Some Central Banks, such as those in the UK, Canada, Australia, and China are concerned about economies overheating, and inflation. As Wndy noted the other day, most individuals in Asia and India are only now beginning to learn the western way of living for the moment, and indulging oneself in material things using credit cards. This phenomenon has a long, long way to go before it stops, or even slows. The improvements in the US economy and stock market fit right into the global picture (adding as Stephen Roach would, "in my view"). Traders should be very aware and concerned with the undeniable current UP trend, in the economy and markets. Trading Safe does not mean top-picking or counter-trend playing for me.
