iBC Welcomes CRONKITE!

Finally, we have someone to do the news on iBankCoin. His column is not officially up on the front page yet. However, we will have it all set up by tonight.

I give you CRONKITE.

The point of his blog is to deliver the news, sort of like Fox News without all the fair and balanced shit. He is an industry pro with more experience than all of you assholes combined. If you have any news tips or suggestions, feel free to drop him a note.

Another win for the Godly folks at iBankCoin.

    I predict that Cronkite will be a success and the comment section will light up.
    Nice move by The Fly to move some of the political talk to Cronkite as the left and right will go at it.

    Cronkite says

    Also Dr. Roubini had a few things to say about the “ECB doing too little too late.”

    Not for nothing fly, but I have been warning about this for fucking months and now you have the spag muncher on pod cast possibly coming back from one of his overnight parties angried and depressed he didn’t pick up the worst looking chick in the place, 1/2 drunk, telling us this.

    He gets the pod cast and I’m treated as a leper having to get a killfile to blur out the dog. WTF? Kill Cronkite. Destroy Conkrite

    While you’re at it get the dog his own page so he just repeats the same fucking thing all day like a retarded spambot. Now that would be a nice gesture.

    I love these arguments against placing a cap on exec. compensation – ‘the best and brightest will leave Wall Street’ Yeah right. Where else can they go and make more than $500k ? Hedge funds ? Private Equity ? Like any of these businesses are doing better. And if they were so bright, how could they not see this coming ? Fuck them All !

    All this talk about the market looking to a second half recovery, what data points show a second half recovery? Where are they? The bullshit stimulus? The banks are surely not showing any indication of recovery.
    And why do they continue to push back the announcement of the holy remaking of the TARP? First they said late last week. then they pushed it to this week , now they are saying next week.

    T MOE, I think they use some model of the money that was in the market no longer there combined with the average amount of cash investment funds have had to put in cash reserves for people pulling out etc…. it is none the less a made up bogus number, and like we talked about yesterday, the majority of it will not be coming back, so the market for a LONG time to come will be far lower in volume than it has been for the last 10 years…… it is a new game, with less players, and less money.

    I wish CNBC would shut the fuck up about this “cash on the sidelines” bullshit fuckery, but hey, CNBC is the KING Henry VIII of modern day FUCKERY.

    hey DD, your predictions are much more accurate when you use “NEXT” and not “THIS”. For example,
    NEW LOWS NEXT WEEK
    and not
    NEW LOWS THIS WEEK

    I think perception and confidence building is what Obama is trying to do with the executive cap. I think if you are a big boy and you have to go back to Momma to get a loan…then you should live under your parent’s rules. The masses/tax payers need to have some confidence that justice is being administered and that the allowance or loan they are giving their children is not being wasted. They are also exacting a ‘ PRICE’ for coming back home to get money so that hopefully they wont do it again and get their business life in order.

    When you act like a child instead of a mature adult you have to pay the consequences.

    I hear they are trying to get around this by taking some future bonus after the money is paid back.

    SWHC looks like it’s heating up from conf. Whats the buzz out of Cowen Aerospace and Defense conference.

    Too bad I didn’t know to load up while SWHC was sleeping in the low 2’s the last few weeks…… Oh wait, I did know to do that, that’s why I have 18% of portfolio long SWHC.
