Well maybe Sarah would be good for the wall street problem Arthur.
I mean Alaska has a predator control program that takes out bears as well as wolves when they are thinning the herd too much so maybe put her in a Helo over wall street and let her shoot some bears before they can short sell all the stocks into oblivion ?

Yeah damn overleveraged sneakey back stabbing bastards and nobody is either taking the necessary steps to stop them or coming up new controls or properly using the existing ones.

Nice to see the market take an upswing today but tomorrow who knows ?

Too much volatillity, too much panic selling and too many behind the scenes manipulators.
Did you hear that they blocked english short sellers from driving prices into the ground today ?
MAybe things will be looking up for real shortly ( no pun intended ). Hope so I have a small amount of stock I have been wanting to sell for a few years that gets almost up to where I won't lose too much selling it then gets hit with the general trend and dips again every time.
Might end up converting it at about a fifty percent loss just to get out of it and have some money to pay some bills.

Then there is that very small bit of Alcatel Lucent that is too small now even to bother selling.
Should be worth more since it is traded in euros over there but they use a mechanism that keeps you from actually holding the stock and it is converted to dollars in the process. Nothing wrong with the company, all the assets are still there but the stock is almost worthless . Sorta like Enron without all the fuss....

sell the stock buy land and hold it for a while then when it goes up reconvert. Gold would be ok but too expensive now so go for the gold stocks which increase exponentially to the gold price. Hell even silver went up 11 percent in one day just a few days back while everyone was buying gold or silver and gold went up some 89 or so points.

Damn finaicials got everyone panicved by overleveraging everything they did.

Probably better off taking your money to Vegas or A city and trying to beat the house odds... more fun anyway.
