      Ban on Short Sale Ends - Hold Your Breath
      Tracking discrepancy? I doubt they're calculating the NAV wrong, which is what actually tracks the double inverse. Anything above that is gravy poured on the ETF by the effects of the market. If you think the price you're paying per share is what double the inverse is, you need to research what you buy a little more closely.

      On Board the 'U.S.S. Titanic'
      The only debt I have are my student loans and a car payment. I have some money in the bank which I put there through hard work and a minor amount of sacrifice. Thanks to this planned bailout, I'm going to be screwed more than the people who cause the whole mess to begin with. That's a real morale booster, isn't it?

      E*TRADE Financial: It Was Good to Be Long
      BTW, Dan Blue, it's interesting to note that all 31 of your comments posted here are all relating to ETFC's greatness and ETFC's greatness alone....surely a wise investor like yourself has an opinion on more than one stock, right???

      Will everyone get over E*Trade, please? No one is going to make a dime on that POS. Everyone's been saying a buyout and a huge run up is just around the corner for the last year. I was in and out of this thing months ago at the same prices we're seeing now. It's a joke and with that many shares outstanding, it'll never see the sweet side of $5 ever again.

      An Open Letter to Congress on the $700B Paulson Bailout Plan
      I think everyone here is to blame. Not only the current administration in the White House but also the previous administration as well. Everyone remembers how great the economy was under Clinton but they base that reasoning on a stock market that was overvalued due to companies that mainly don't exist anymore. Just because NASDAQ was at 5000 once doesn't really mean it should ever be there again.

      CEOs needed a way to keep showing blowout earnings for an investing public that wasn't happy with a steady 12% annual return anymore. Banks made bad loans through dishonest mortgage brokers to greedy homebuyers who thought they were going to get rich overnight. Now all of these people are going to be rewarded at the expense of the average working American who busts their ass everyday to make ends meet.

      Putting blame for that expressly on the shoulders of one or two individuals is absurd. There's plenty of blame to be assigned here and this bailout just gives them all a free pass to do it again.

      Credit Cards: Not Dead Yet
      That possibly could be the dumbest thing I've ever read. Why is paying for something with your own money bad? Why is paying someone else 10-20% interest to use their money good?

      Obama Is Bad for the Economy - Barron's
      Here we are, arguing about which rich politician will be better for us based on how much of our money they want to siphon off our paychecks. The government taking money away from ANYONE is bad for the economy, regardless of rich or poor. The assumption that the government can spend money in a wiser fashion than an individual is crazy. When the government spends my money I get a war in Iraq, troops sent to Bosnia and annoying IRS forms every January. When I spend my money I get a new plasma TV, an expensive bottle of Scotch and, if I'm lucky, some action from a hot chick that likes my taste in new plasma TVs and expensive Scotch. Personally, I think I give myself a much better deal.

      Cramer Continues to Dig a Sirius Hole for Himself
      If we're bashing Cramer then we need to bash everyone like him. He may be the most visible stock jockey out there but, in essence, he's doing exactly what normal people are doing right here on Seeking Alpha. He's got an opinion. I've got an opinion. Sometimes they're the same, sometimes they're different. Anyone who bases their trading solely on what Cramer is screaming about on CNBC gets what they deserve.

      The Case for Jamba Juice
      This talk about slow service being a reason the stock is in the tank is absurd. You don't see evaluations of Starbucks with some petulant whining that it took 7 minutes to get a latte so the company is going down the tubes....

      I was in and out of this stock in the 3s and took a small loss. Management has no plan to address the real problems....over zealous expansion into a market that is in the middle of the worst housing bust in ages and expanding competition. Until management has a plan for that and doesn't get surprised by a $200something million dollar charge again, I'll pass.

      I think saying the iPhone is taking business away from these other phone makers is a bit much. The iPhone is never going to unseat Blackberry as the goto business road warrior phone. The iPhone is also never going to be free and reach the kind of mass market Nokia and Motorola phones will. It's a nice toy that some people want and can afford but implying these companies are tembling because of this is absurd.

      How Long Will The WSJ Keep Its Pay Model?
      So CNBC is now a tool of the right wing elite? Will you people make up your mind about who's spouting right wing propaganda and who isn't? First it's Fox News, now it's CNBC....what, is NPR next on the hit list?

      Did it ever occur to you that the WSJ hasn't published your paper because it sucks? (And, before you start in, yes I went to your website and read it....) And it isn't that I think you're a complete crackpot....I agree with most of the topics you've put forth. However, your treatise is written in a form that smells of "late night college bull session after a 12 pack and a joint." Make it sound less like an internet rant and you might get somewhere.
