Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know Newsby SA Editor Rachael Granby- Bank trio becomes duo. Wells Fargo (WFC) will become the largest U.S. bank by branches with its bid for Wachovia (WB), after Citigroup (C) withdrew from compromise negotiations late yesterday on concerns about the quality of some of Wachovia's assets. Wells Fargo, with a bid valued at $11.4B, expects the purchase to be completed by the end of the year, and denies it will have to absorb assets shakier than originally thought.
- Government considers next steps. As the financial crisis continues to worsen, the U.S. government is considering two dramatic steps to turn around, or at least slow, the damage: guaranteeing billions of dollars in bank debt and temporarily insuring all U.S. bank deposits. The moves, which would mark the government's most extensive intervention to date, are in discussion stages only.
- Credit stays frozen. As frozen credit markets refuse to thaw, the cost of default protection on corporate bonds reaches new global records amid investor concerns the credit crisis will trigger corporate failures as companies struggle to finance their businesses. Interbank lending remains limited, and borrowing from the Fed's expanded discount window continued its trend of setting new highs every week, as the total daily average rose to $420.2B vs. $367.8B last week.

Wednesday, October 15.Bullish Calls:Continental Resources (CLR) -- "This is a remarkable decline. All of the high quality ones are down so much, I can't go against it. This is where you pull the trigger.
3M (MMM) -- The moment this stock starts yielding 5%, I'm a buyer. Until then, keep your powder dry.Bearish Calls:Computer Sciences (CSC) -- This is a company that was going to be bought, but they passed up the chance. Now I don't want to buy it."Email continues...
Annaly Mortgage (NLY) -- I think this is a business model that needs to borrow money. Definitively do not buy."

America is too young to die. Someday “yes” but not now! Not this decade nor the next.
America is the best place in the universe to invest.
Good article Michael Zhuang and thanks for your hard work
Who Is Surprised by Economic Data? (Part II)
Just another spin doctor on the street.
Record Declines in Home Prices Continue
“I believe that falling prices -- along with falling industry -- will ultimately be healthy, eventually returning real estate markets to more normalized sustainable levels somewhere off in the future.”
“Will ultimately be healthy” sounds like a bear turning a corner. Well, maybe its just some old fashion hedging.

Spewing personal trash again sammy? Can't Barry teach you some good manners? lol
Yes, I do read ALL of his stuff. To me he is just another spin doctor.
He complains about being saddled with truthiness (spin, nothing new in that) but he uses spin for his own arguments.
For example, in his piece today ‘How Counter-Productive Is Realtor Association Spin?’ is an old story and I do agree it was a sad state of affairs. David Lereah left the NAR a year ago and there are no new events in speak of in his piece. So he is just churning up hate, fear, and loathing. Flames die down but he fans them up again with no solution or fix of his own.
Fox Business Gunning for James Cramer
Barry's followers rely on personal attacks and vulgarity when their anger takes control of their emotions.
Would you trust your money with people like this?
Good traders and investors keep their emotions under control.

Tony –
I’ve really seen enough of your pseudo-patriotic drivel. When the powers that be use the flag to stuff their moral compasses in their rectums, decent people are outraged; jack-holes, like you, salute. Real Patriots seek justice first, and don’t look to pass their debts onto their grandkids. Cheerleading deficit spending and currency collapse to subsidize thieves and over-leveraged fools is about as American as Al-Qaeda wearing the stars and bars.
Yeah, I know, “50 years of investment experience”, yet here you are, frantically posting away, like a fifteen year-old girl on myspace.com. I think what you’ve really had is 6 months of experience, 100 times over. So tell us, brainiac, is this a bear market rally to dress up report card day (end of the quarter) or a true bottom? If you were any good, you’d already be out of the game, but your comments (and volume) reek of the desperation that comes from a bad balance sheet. Hoping for one more bubble to bail your sorry ass out. Maybe you’re hoping to unload some “investment” properties when things get better?
The only question I’ve really got for you is, are you an idiot who idolizes a fictitious crook or an idiot who’s name is actually Tony Soprano.
Your comments are only insightful in the vacuum between your ears. Inflict your “wisdom” elsewhere (the NAR could use some more shills). You are the disease, don’t try to pass yourself off as the cure.
How Counter-Productive Is Realtor Association Spin?
So why the rehash a year after? To keep the revolution going?
So besides the bitching what’s the fix?

Also, he will have to release his tax forms.
If he does this, I will have more respect for him. Just blogging about our ills on a blog site is one thing but running and representing all Americans is another.
He would have a difficult time explaining his views to the media and the public. Like the one shown below:
“That's what attracted me to this book by Farhad Manjoo: Learning to Live in a Post-Fact Society. That such a book is even necessary boggles the mind. Consider the myriads of benefits and standards of living improvements we have seen from the reality-based community -- and by that, I mean Scientists (Physicists, Biologists, Medical Doctors) and Engineers (Technology, materials and mechanical). Why so many people would turn their backs on this belief system leads me to Arthur C. Clarke's 3rd law: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." ”
The media would view Barry as anti-press.

That's all they have left.
