Thanks for the tally. If you don't vote you can't see the results.... My dart in the dark landed on down a bit, but didn't think a dart should have voting privelages.

If you don't, no one does. My guess is down - BHO's speech did nothing to assuage those who fear/sense nationalization of BofA/Citi. That's my two cents - probably worth 0.5 cents.

Hehe yes in theory. However, I got myself in a pickle forcing me to do things I shouldn't be doing. (using too much leverage)

Got some rope with todays bounce...but I'm hoping that tomorrow I don't hang myself with it.
 
I vote for fairly flat. It wants to go down but it also wants to believe Obama because the alternatives are so horrible. (yes, I realize it's not really an "it")

Do you think the market is fearing nationalization? Or are the banks fearing nationalization? I really don't know myself.



I'm leaning towards banks fearing it though and the fact that the market wants it. Nationalization could lead to finally knowing what these banks are truly holding. The faster we know that, the faster we can determine fair value for the S&P.

Oh yeah. I'm 100% with you on that one. If it was Geithner, I wouldn't even have an Up and Flat. It would just be a one vote button for DOWN and then state how many pts per second!

Sell Vlasic.



As a side note, I didn't realize they'd gone private. A nice little group of holdings for their current well know owners. <a href="http://www.pinnaclefoodscorp.com/public/investors/index.htm">->link.</a>

The market is afraid there isn't another step down...

I think the market, by nature, always fears nationalization. More than anything else, it fears the unknown - e.g the lack of transparency. To that end, the lack of transparency, especially with financial firms, seems to be a key factor in the decline in their stock price.



But then again, if I knew anything, I wouldn't have taken the beating I did this past year.
