In continuing with my rant against the ratings agencies (see Interesting Documentary on the Power of the Agencies) I bring you additional evidence that their seemingly incompetent behavior leading up to the 2008 market crash is nothing compared to what is going on today... And many think the agencies have reformed!!! Subscribers, a B-L-O-C-K-B-U-S-T-E-R forensic report update based upon the banking situation described...

Continuing my rant on the effectiveness (not) of the ratings agencies, I bring to you an interesting documentary on the rating agencies' effect on the sovereign debt crisis in Europe, produced by VPRO Tegenlicht out of Amsterdam. You can see the full video here, but only about half of it is in English. I appear in the following spots: 4:00,...

Yes, its a little late but I had a few pressing matters that took priority. Apple had a remarkable blow out quarter in Q4 2011, basically knocking almost everything out of the park. Those who follow me and study my research realize that this was not necessarily unexpected. Those who pay attention realize that Apple has made a lot of...

Notes of interest as I browse through the Goldman Q4-2011 earnings release... Many analysts dropped their estimates for Goldman (considerably after I warned on the firm), setting up the old Wall Street bait and switch move... Yet, despite this setup on reduced earnings, Goldman STILL MISSED on the top line! This is the most important number and has trended downward sharply. Goldman...

Roughly a year ago, I explained to those who subscribe to BoomBustBlog that NYC real estate ever finished correcting. As a matter of fact, it has some ways to go, as does DC real estate. The reason why NYC and DC markets levitated was because the Fed pumped trillions into Wall Street to reflate the bubble which was (and still...
