Check out the price action on the key risk players:

 

JPM, C, AIG, RE, MBI, ABK, etc.

 

Most HedgeHogs have been short these stocks to hedge against credit insurance portfolios.

 

Check out the Credit Bubble Originators:

 

COF, KRB, CFC, FNM, FRE, NCEN, etc.

 

The Al Green fix is in. Reflate or die. Consumer defaults are now impossible in credit land, thanks to Al Green. Now credit card and mortgage companies can underwrite anything they want with no restriction.

 

Check out homebuilders like CTX. Off to the moon, no end in sight.

 

Bubble to the max........

 

Oh, one other guy living the nightmare in real time: HYPERTIGER.

 

Where are you??

Came within a second of clicking the "cover 50%" button this afternoon. 920 just couldn't do so I continue to get slammed a while longer I suppose. Didn't move on the proceeds from the gold trades today.

 

I decided to hedge with June QQQ 28 Calls to soften the blow if the agents decide to take it much higher. This thing is so overbot is really isn't even funny anymore. Notice how the VIX tanked right into the close?

 

The only fear priced into the market is that of missing Uncle AL's orgasmic repo blast from hell! :lol:

I'll give this market to 925 to come together and fall apart. :grin:

 

A couple of things I don't like.

 

The A/D line was good today

 

Gold went down but, the doolar went nowhere.

 

For now, I will keep the count. If we close Up tomorrow, I will have to reevaluate.

 

I closed some longs (spx) at 918 and went short with june contracts at that price.

 

 

This is NOT investment advice. You lose your money not mine. I know how to do that all by myself. :)

Greenspan Says He Would Take 5th Term

 

By MARTIN CRUTSINGER

The Associated Press

Wednesday, April 23, 2003; 4:14 PM

 

 

WASHINGTON - Alan Greenspan, expressing appreciation for President Bush's confidence, said Wednesday he would accept a fifth term as chairman of the Federal Reserve.

 

In a brief statement, Greenspan, who is now in his 16th year as head of the nation's central bank, said he would accept a nomination for another four-year term.

 

Bush in a surprise announcement on Tuesday had said he planned to nominate Greenspan for a new term when his current one expires next year.

 

"If President Bush nominates me and the Senate confirms his choice, I would have every intention of serving," Greenspan said Wednesday.

Mark -- Hyper has it right. There is no way to deflate the credit bubble. It has to keep growing otherwise the roof falls in. I don't know what the limits are or when it will happen. I'm waiting for my new $250,000 line on the new Capital One card with no payments or interest for 10 years. Make no mistake, at this point there will have to be an event to blame the collapse on. No one in Washington or Wall Street wants to be seen responsible when the crash finally arrives. Until then, it's business as usual. Print more money, expand credit and pump the market.
