    Five reasons we are right for hating Goldman Sachs

    Here are five reasons why we want Goldman Sachs destroyed and buried so we can dance on its grave and why these crony apologists are wrong when they say that the "populist outrage at Goldman Sachs is misplaced". 1. The AIG bailout was a covert bailout of Goldman and we want our money back. Every dime of it. Goldman had been placing a bunch of bets against real estate derivatives at a casino called AIG.

    O meets Hu: Alec Baldwin and/or Jack Donaghy for Treasury Secretary!

    How conceited are all these Republicans/Democrats/Commies/Socialists/whatevers meeting in Asia pretending they can control global economies? Do you really believe in a handful of bureaucrats and politicians who've been in power as we've driven our economy and country off a cliff with unemployment at generational highs, with debts that will take decades of work from our children to pay off, with a three-quarters of a trillion dollar annual military industrial complex that is steadily funded for decades on end now, and with ... read more

    RIMM's Problems: App Functionability and Coming Enterprise Losses

    RIMM is just about the only red stock on my blinking screen in this, another day, in the bull market that keeps right on ripping and taking most big cap stocks up with it. Now  I always caution anybody from reading too much into any single day's action in any single stock, and I frankly don't think today's 1.5% sell off in RIMM means much of anything.  But what I do think means a lot to RIMM is its ability to continue to take market share in the cellphone market and its my doubts about that which is making me bearish on ol' ... read more
