RE: POSCO/MT
RE: POSCO/MTNo chance Stocky 3. This subprime stuff is winding up not down.
According to numerous people, we are looking at a one to three
trillion dollar mess ahead of us. OK take away the 200 billion we
have already witnessed which is only half of what Goldman Sacks
put out and we have a long ways to go. If the banks in Canada
didn't buy too heavily into this derivatives mess, and I hope they
did not, then you and all of us will get our wish and money will
possibly loosen up and AUA will be able to borrow.
Stocky, not sure where you live, but all this good will crap you are
reading in the paper about our Fed being so concerned about the
homeowners who purchased their homes using ARM mortgages ARE NOT
BEING HELPED like you would think. It is pathetic in one way,
and in another way those who bought the homes and have never made
a payment don't deserve help. As I understand the situation, many
bought the homes never planning on keeping them anyway, this was just
a chance for them to live high on the hog momentarily in their life.
It was our gov't fault for opening up lending to these people in
the first place, but as usual the tax payers will be forced to carry
the burden.
The real kicker to this Bear Sterns debacle is that you read that
the Feds and JP Morgan are going to bail out Bear Sterns. The truth
is that the FED IS NOT FEDERAL no more that Federal Express is. Second
point is that it is a corporation and JP Morgan is the largest owner
of stock in the Federal Reserve. This is a THEFT SALE whereby the
two in conjunction with one another are buying close to 32 Billion
Dollars in assets for 1.9 Billion Dollars. Nice work if you can
get it. The US Federal government has not spent one dime on anything
that will help this subprime mess. Quite frankly the US GOV'T doesn't
have any idea what is going on. Thus no fix in sight.
This is the real skinny ladies and gentlemen, oh how I wish it were
not true. We will eventually get our day in the sun, just don't
know when. I just pray that the banks in Canada will start lending
money soon so that China doesn't wind up owning all the natural
resources in Canada. Hope the Canadian government wakes up SOON.
