Out of Control

Posted in Holy Grails | 6 Comments | Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

Monday Dow down 780 and the world is on the brink of implosion. All the news shows, all the front pages of the biggest papers, they all painted an end of day scenario. Today, Dow is up 485, recovering a huge piece of the 780, and the story is a footnote on the nightly news. Does the average guy or girl ever stop to think about the level of manipulation being thrown at them? It is very similar to the film ‘V for Vendetta’. That is the messaging, the propaganda, and the fear are quite an impressive achievement for politicians and the media. It might be a sick and perverse achievment, but it is impressive.

Pathetic

Why do we reward U.S. car makers for 30 years of futility? U.S. cars can’t compete with Toyota, BMW or Mercedes in the market, so we now we give them a big gift to make more crap? What next another “K car“?

IndyMac Insight

Posted in Holy Grails | 2 Comments | Friday, September 26th, 2008

So why did people line up to put their money into IndyMac bank? It is a question I had not considered until I went to an IndyMac branch this summer in California. What did I learn? While waiting outside to talk to IndyMac clients, some of whom were going to lose money due to IndyMac’s failure, I was approached by a local broker who worked next door. He had spent much time talking with IndyMac clients about coming over to his nationally known (and very solvent) brokerage and parking their money there. Even in the midst of IndyMac’s share price cratering, even in the midst of constant negative news, people would not leave IndyMac for safer havens. Why? They all wanted those high return saving and money market accounts IndyMac was offering. The extra 1% (or whatever it was) was so enticing to these people that they were willing to risk their entire account values for a few extra bucks. Crazy? Of course. Normal behavior for some people? Unfortunately, yes.
