Don’t Bet Against the Government

We have a full rout of the bears taking place, as investors reload, shoot, reload again.

The homies and all credit related names are taking off, thanks to the President’s bail out proposal.

In short, this is a major benefit to the homebuilders, who will likely be viewed as “more stable” and get access to the credit markets, with ease.

All thanks to the Gov’t.

With my money, I have open positions in ACF, CFC, SPF and CORS.

This is a good shoe. Milk it, then move on.

    Make hay while the sun shines.

    However briefly.

    As I recall from my studies of the period, Nixon tried some of this bullshit right before the market went to hell in half a hand basket.

    From bigpicture:
    According to the WSJ, the Office of Thrift Supervision Director John Reich said that “the plan could help “tens of thousands” of homeowners.”

    Thud.

    Don’t stay in that CFC very long.

    On an unrelated note: DRYS is one of the most broken/beaten down stocks I’ve seen in a while. Trades at a 9.25 multiple, meanwhile DSX FREE QMAR and EXM are all averaging about a 20 multiple. Moreover, DRYS has only seen losses during the rally the last 2 days….
    oh yeah and did I mention, it is trading at about 5 times forward earnings. Please, someone, explain to me; what is wrong with this stock?

    I feel like we’re short term overbought. While I’m scared, I just short a couple hundred SPIDERS into the close.

    Where’s the Kasshat been the last couple of days? I’d pay big $$$ to see 10 rounds between The Fly and Kass, although Fly would punch him into a pulp in one round. Still worth paying up for….

    What’s a “route” of the bears? Is that similar to a “root?” Or even better, a “rout?”

    No gas chambers at Guantanamo. However, they have buffet tables of pulled pork, BBQ ribs and much sweet tea.

    Interesting how the corporations that wanted big govt out of their way before, were so quick to belly up to the nanny govt bar when the chips were down, isn’t it?
