Watch for the color of the Business Case when he walks out the door.

On Sunday, Treasury Secretary Geithner will have dinner at Treasury with former secretaries of the Treasury.
What's up with this? There was no indication on the weekly Treasury schedule, put out just a day ago, that this dinner was planned. Very unusual.
On top of that, the Treasury put this notice out at 9:00PM on a Saturday night. Sure looks like a rushed meeting to me.
He just needs help figuring out Turbo Tax 2010.
No
I know that's probably intellectually lazy...
Yes
stomach is currently in revolt against its contents...
Gross
Could we also hope for a moratorium...
No
Next!
Nah.
Open down 38 with a quick rebound into positive territory and a close near +80.
Gold will be down 22 $ at 5:00PM.
Most of the Asian markets will be down tonight but will follow the US lead and rebound the next day.
The collapse that many are expecting will happen out of the 'clear blue' later. (when the big boys get the small guys back into the market)
My two cents.
yeah you are...look at the date...1/28
That would be the answer to many prayers.
And that, my friend, is why markets work. You think its going to do one thing, and I think it will do another. No government intervention needed. You pays your money, you takes your risks.
I DO think that you are right with the BIG takedown, but sometimes other events ruin even the best planning. They might just lay it down all at once. But then again, I still think that AQ has to be looking at this and thinking it would be a nice time to slap us again. (Or have I been reading too much Tom Clancy....?)
I guess it's a good thing that their liabilities carry 0% or 0.25% interest rates.
An accident? (;>)
What? Can you explain?
No sleep tonight for Blythe. She's got her team "sacking up".
..If the briefcase is bulging, so the
theory goes, it is full of evidence gathered by
Greenspan to persuade other members of the
FOMC to vote for a higher interest rate target. If
the briefcase is thin, then markets can relax because
no change is likely...
LOL - thanks for sharing...
yeah but what do you DO with the pennies?....no one will take them to melt, at least that I know of...
Bpy, Am i off the mark this morning. This is why you dont take investing advice from idiots on online forums (pointing the finger at me!)
I sit and scratch my head. Money flowing into the dollar? Boy, if that doesn’t point to the state of the world, nothing does.
It is illegal to melt down US coins/money.
Loop Coins is presently selling 100 Wheat Pennies for $4.25 per bag.
I called and asked if they were buying pre-1982 copper pennies by weight for the copper content. They said that they'd just had a meeting on that subject but have not reached a decision yet.
Two weeks ago I sold 129 pounds of scrap copper pipe for $451.50.
Saving nickels is your best choice at present. Your every day nickel is worth about seven cents presently...that's because it is 75% copper and 25% nickel. I have thousands of them.
I'm a retired chip-maker.
I don't even take my own advice on stocks.
IMO, things are so manipulated at present that your 'guess' could be correct tomorrow...plunge protection teams and all.
Money is probably streaming out of the Middle East into dollars.
No clue. At all.
As a peripheral observation, it appears to me that the Obama administration has reached the limits of what fame, good looks and an Ivy League degree can accomplish, on more than one front.
