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."

If you didn't believe me with my first teaser....trying reading these articles...

Ice, Ice Baby Part 1

Ice, Ice Baby Part 2

Here are some teaser quotes:
When Enron failed and took its private, unregulated energy exchange to the grave, another rose to take its place. The Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) was the brainchild of
Morgan Stanley,
Goldman Sachs,
British Petroleum,
Deutsche Bank,
Dean Witter,
Royal Dutch Shell,
SG Investment Bank and
Totalfina.
In 2001 ICE purchased the International Petroleum Exchange in London; renamed ICE Futures, it now operates as an "exempt commercial market" under section 2(H)(3) of the Commodity Exchange Act. As the Senate hearings pointed out in the summer of 2006, "Both markets operate outside of any CFTC oversight."
www.star-telegram.com/...
We started as a society that worships hard labor and the basic business ethic of building value into the goods you create. How’d we get from there to worshiping Wall Street’s billion-dollar boys — who create nothing, build nothing, own nothing and deliver no goods, and yet can throw so much money into products made by others that they determine what we consumers will pay for those goods?
Oil Movements tracks every tanker at sea, from both OPEC and non-OPEC oil countries, along with their cargoes’ final destinations. Anne O’Shea responded immediately to my request with their report dated May 8, 2008. Just so you will know, oil shipments are up from a year ago in almost every class, including Middle East oil in transit and Non-OPEC in Transit. The only class of oil shipment that has declined is covered on page 3 of that report. That chart is labeled, "4-Week Changes in Westbound Oil at Sea."
That’s right, shipments of oil headed west have shown serious declines during the month of April, down 800,000 barrels per day in the week before the publication of the report
This is EXACTLY what Enron did when it's Electricity Manipulation, Turning off power grids to falsely inflate demand on other grids....

IndyMac Failure: How Much Trouble Is Sen. Schumer In?
He single handedly wiped out BILLIONS of Equity in two short weeks.
He should be held PERSONALLY accountable for the 1000's of individuals personal wealth his words WIPED OUT.........
What do you mean "if it wasn't a problem waiting to happen...." His reckless disregard caused a RUN ON THE BANK and almost $2 BILLION was withdrawn from the bank in two weeks.......sure maybe a BofA could handle that kind of activity.....but do that to any other bank, and they'd be as much of a sitting duck.......What if he did that to Wachovia? What if this complete IDIOT came out and talked about Wachovia the same way he did IndyMac....you think Wachovia could handle a run on the bank? Wachovia is pretty sound....or so we think.......but when you lack deposits, your bank crumbles.....
Bank Failures Due To Spike?
I sure hope he fails in re-election.....He WIPED OUT BILLIONS of equity in two short weeks
Not Calling Crude Oil Prices a Bubble For Now
Take a look at some of the futures prices of a barrel of oil.
futures.tradingcharts....
Do you see a pattern there?
Look at the 2012 future prices for a barrel of oil...they are trading in the $70's
2012 will be "election season"....
Speculators don't want to touch buying it...if we were really living in a "tight" market....and $150/$200 a barrel is here to stay...That's the BEST deal OF THE CENTURY you could find, you could TRIPLE your investment in 4 short years...what other investment exists with that kind of "guarantee".... 300% return in 4 years....?!
Why are people not buying up those futures contracts as fast as
they can?
You want further proof?!
How and why would a COMMODITY price...we're talking a COMMODITY, have $4-$5 swings in a matter of HOURS...that's a 3% price swing within HOURS of trading in a single DAY!!
Because the price is FALSELY inflated....and Oil Pricing is a SCAM manipulated on the ICE markets.
Has EVERYONE completely forgotten (or IGNORED) history? We've seen this EXACT SAME THING when Enron was around.
They were the Market makers and they manipulated the market to their whim......Anyone remember Dick Cheney saying "we can't pull anymore kilowatts", yet Enron was shutting down Power plants in California, to close grids and falsely increase demands on the rest of the grid...
it is the EXACT same thing ICE is doing.
Eliminate the Graham/Enron loophole, put more transparency on ICE Markets, and a price of a barrel falls in HALF, OVERNIGHT
I'll bet EVERYTHING I OWN on it.

They were the Market makers and they manipulated the market to their whim......Anyone remember Dick Cheney saying "we can't pull anymore kilowatts", yet Enron was shutting down Power plants in California, to close grids and falsely increase demands on the rest of the grid...
it is the EXACT same thing ICE is doing.
Eliminate the Graham/Enron loophole, put more transparency on ICE Markets, and a price of a barrel falls in HALF, OVERNIGHT
I'll bet EVERYTHING I OWN on it.
And the Oil Derby's Off...Way Off
Take a look at some of the futures prices of a barrel of oil.
futures.tradingcharts....
Do you see a pattern there?
Look at the 2012 future prices for a barrel of oil...they are trading in the $70's
2012 will be "election season"....
Speculators don't want to touch buying it...if we were really living in a "tight" market....and $150/$200 a barrel is here to stay...That's the BEST deal OF THE CENTURY you could find, you could TRIPLE your investment in 4 short years...what other investment exists with that kind of "guarantee".... 300% return in 4 years....?!
Why are people not buying up those futures contracts as fast as
they can?
You want further proof?!
How and why would a COMMODITY price...we're talking a COMMODITY, have $4-$5 swings in a matter of HOURS...that's a 3% price swing within HOURS of trading in a single DAY!!
Because the price is FALSELY inflated....and Oil Pricing is a SCAM manipulated on the ICE markets.
Has EVERYONE completely forgotten (or IGNORED) history? We've seen this EXACT SAME THING when Enron was around.
