RE: One more post of interest... Wacky Bernanke is a student of the Great Depression but there are some very stark differences between today's situation and those that were present in the 1930's.
The FED is taking on risks that wouldn't have been contemplated in the 1930's ... they continue to ease credit to no avail ... they are running out of ammunition ... Easing credit is a useless tactic if banks won't lend to each other and Joe Pubilc no longer has any home equity left to draw against.
In my opinion, if Roger's is short all the banks, then it's just a matter of time before they turn back into hugely successful positions for him.
Good luck all. Got Gold?
The above is just my opinion. Remember, consult your investment advisor prior to making any investment decisions. I guarantee you, they will tell you the worst is behind us. They've been telling you that all along, haven't they.
