For a buck eighty-two, I think we should all pitch in as loyal, smart, money-hungry TXTAs that we are and buy some Wach-Stock, that is, if you plan on loosing it by the next day.
Or, you could buy a 20oz. pepsi.
Aside from watching the Nasdaq and Dow Jones drop like a monkey's nuts today during ARCH4333 class, I witnessed company bought-outs as they were happening by the hour. In case you missed the fireworks today, here is a chart that'll have you running to the bank tomorrow, pulling all of your money out before it's too late, especially you WaMu fans. :D

APPLE.
Source: ValleyWag
Time to swap your white plastic armor for some eco-friendly aluminum. Two important analysts, RBC Capital’s Mike Abramsky and Morgan Stanley’s Kathryn Huberty, lowered their ratings on Apple's stock this morning. Huberty: “PC unit growth is decelerating and the remaining source of growth is increasingly the sub-$1,000 market where AAPL does not play.” Abramsky: “a worsening consumer spending environment." Apple shares were down from $128 to $108 as of this post.
The entire sector is in the crapper right now. It's like the NASDAQ is on the Master Cleanse.
GOOGLE:
basically RAPED...buy stock now at just a bit over $100
Remember when everyone was jumping for joy at the idea of Apple 200? Let's finish the year at 100.
PALM?
Start drafting the bankruptcy filings.
SUN SYSTEMS:
Another company whose stock has lost 2/3 of its value in the last year.
At least Apple delivers decent earnings and return on equity.
...........
FOR WHO THE BELL DOESNT TOLL!
Did anyone notice (live broadcast, of course) the bell at the NYSE today? The iconic opening bell failed to sound! LOL

That video is well-constructed, however, it should stress what a "credit default swap" is (i just got done talking to my uncle about that today). That should help in understanding it a little better for newbies like me. It would also help explain why Pelosi made a fool out of Bush today in blaming him for what this video talks about.
by the way, I'm voting for Ralph Nader, in case anyone was interested.
:D |

The music to this video kicks ass. There is nothing more that really rocks my world other than Tom Petty along with "The Eye of the Tiger!!"
Past that sure Dirk it is easy to make a video and blame people for wrong doing; but to sum it all up and vote for a presidential candidate to solve the issues after 10 minutes of pointing fingers; is a waste of time when it comes to solving the issue.
I mean hell we might as well make videos on all the ing money each congressman/women gets from corporate powers that helps, "Them rise straight to the top!!" I can see it now; Bush would have videos of him sucking off his dad for $$$$. It just points fingers and blames the democrats, when in actuality all of congress should be blamed for manipulating the markets.
How it turns from economics into voting for a president is all political bull. I'll tell you what aint nothing gonna get solved when monkies are flinging at each other's mouths. |

WTF is this some 4 step program to putting on underwear? how about we just skip steps 1-4 and stop buying underwear b/c that undergarment is gonna cost us lots of $$$ we don't have in the long run.
Plus if you extend your natural animalistical instincts full throttle ,"Panties," and "Big boy underwear," just prohibit the time needed to get fully nekkid |
