Subdude replied Jul 30, 2008Nothing has really changed fundamentally since it was 450 pips higher, other than a few bad euro indicators and the oil correction. Do you honestly think lower oil prices will help the U.S. banking sector fix its problems? Buckle up for safety as ...

Subdude replied Jul 23, 2008Please don't quote Greenspan's YouTube video as a reliable source of information - instead know how your country's legal system is set up. BTW, the title says scandalously "Greenspan Admits The Federal Reserve Is Private". Wrong - the point he was ...

Subdude replied Jul 18, 2008Sorry all - I was incorrect about the timing of Citi's earnings announcement. The conference call is indeed at 13:30 GMT, but I guess the actual data came out a couple of hours sooner. Schlumberger beats, Mattel beats, most importantly Citi beats ...
