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."
Northrop Grumman (NOC) -- You can't own the defense stocks right now. If I had to own one, I'd look at Lockheed Martin (LMT) with its good dividend. - Stocks & Sectors -SampleSeeking Alpha - Stocks & SectorsInternet

7 Stocks for a High Yield Cash Flow Portfolio
Thats right sell covered calls against your posityion and get some income there too!
Example I sold back on June 6th when JPM was @ $42.15 January 2009 $50 Call Leaps for $1.90 ticker VJPAJ. granted I've owned JPM for several years and have a low cost basis. But that $1.90 equals a 4.5% return @ $42 per share from June 2008 until Jan expiration or 8 months. or a 6.8% yield!!!!
So the dividends plus the option premium toghter come to a 7.13% in 8 months or 10.7% annualized. now figure in the $8 gain from $42 to the $50 strike???
Bottom Line $8 cap gain or +19% plus 7.13% yield from option premium and dividend yield = over 26% total return from June until January 2009.
But wait...that's if its over $50...if not I keep the premium and do the whole thing over and continue to lower my cost basis.
Get the picture!
7 Stocks for a High Yield Cash Flow Portfolio
I also own JP Morgan/Chase (JPM) yielding 3.95% and it just bought Bear Stearns for 10 cents on the dollar back in March...a gift from the fed!
You have to figure that it will leveage that acquisition in the future and you get a good yield while waiting.
Cap gains & a great yield!
Bottom Line: BUY!
7 Stocks for a High Yield Cash Flow Portfolio
My original premise was not only for the yield, about 14% for my cost basis...but a play on a lower dollar versus Canadian $ and also the growing demand for natural gas and energy.
The perfect scenario play was with canadian energy trusts.
These stocks (PWE & PGH) in my opinion are still undervalued and not recognized by most investors.
Bottom Line: BUY!!!
Where Are Emcore's Commercial-Sized Orders?
1. Are you the AndrewLeft who lost his futures trading license after the Futures Trading Association judged him guilty (after a hearing) of having defrauded numerous customers?
2. Are you the same Andrew Left who was a defendant in a class action lawsuit for having defrauded customers of a stock brokerage house?
3. Are you the same Andrew Left who obtained a license and sold stocks under the false name of Henry Lipton?
4. Are you the same Andrew Left who filed a fraudulent biography with the SEC in a filing by Detour Online that omitted any mention of the work history described above?
5. Are you the same Andrew Left who was forced to resign his position at Detour Online?
6. Are you the same Andrew Left who was accused by Detour Online of stealing $25,000 from the corporate coffers?

Differing Opinions on EMCORE Corporation
Just look at how detailed Emocre has been on their business.

Fact is orders continue to come in for EMKR products, the cloud of uncertainty that Citron painted of GGE I believe is false, sine the gov't of Australia has ordered from them, lending credibility.
Left's opinion, which is just that an opinion and his blog refer to other past companies...that have declined in stock price. My question is, of those companies, how many of them had directors buying millions of dollars of stock on the open market???
That speaks for itself!
