    How do you go from nearly going under to this? I can't see how all this consolidation is good in the long term.


    Wachovia has a little brother issue with Bank of America.

    I said to buy back at 7 and change...I am a guru.

    I've been out of touch lately. So, is WB going after Morgan Stanley or vice versa?

    Yes, but did you buy?
    I've bought and sold it twice. BAM, pay me!
    Unfortunately, while I bought in big and made good money fast on each one, I sold too early on Thursday and missed the HUGE spike. But realized gains are nothing bad :).

    Sometimes that's the best policy.

    Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are now BHCs.

    My former employer's stock was above 100 in January.

    Then last week it came out that they were heavily divested in Lehman's.

    Warren Buffet just bought them for about 25 dollars a share. Bargain basement price.

    I'm glad I got out. Jebeezus.

    I know a guy who just went back for retirement. He's fucked.

    If that dude has any brains he didn't have his retirement savings in the market.
