Comments on: Stronger Dollar Trounces Gold, Silver, Platinum ETFs http://www.etftrends.com/2008/09/stronger-dollar-trounces-gold-silver-platinum-etfs.html Keeping a grip on exchange traded funds (ETFs) Sat, 21 Nov 2009 23:28:06 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Tim http://www.etftrends.com/2008/09/stronger-dollar-trounces-gold-silver-platinum-etfs.html/comment-page-1/#comment-1823 Tim Wed, 10 Sep 2008 00:46:18 +0000 http://www.etftrends.com/?p=4934#comment-1823 A few posts on shorts would be greatly appreciated, as that is the only way it seems not to lose your shirt at this point. A few questions I have: Are the big banks recapitilizing themselves by going after one market after another & wiping out Americans' retirement savings, right after they've wiped out Americans' housing wealth & caused them to lose their jobs as well? Where have the big banks sudddenly gotten the hundreds of billions to short? Is the FED not only giving the banks taxpayer dollars via the FED open window to short viciously, but if that doesn't succeed, then bailing them out one Friday after another at taxpayer expense? According to the federal government's own report, JP Morgan has $79 TRILLION in derivative exposure, how much of that is toxic & are the taxpayer's supposed to bail that out as well? http://www.occ.treas.gov/ftp/deriv/dq207.pdf JP Morgan in the COT futures reports by the way is the most likely candidate in shorting on paper 128,000,000 ounces of silver in the last several weeks as well as several tons of paper gold. If those shorts had gone wrong would the taxpayers have been bailing JP out? Sickening. Jim Rogers' comments that this is socialism for the rich is right. And his comment that America is more communist than China is right as well. When are we going to see some of the wealthy bankers who've caused this mess PUT IN A GOVERNMENT CAGE?

A few questions I have: Are the big banks recapitilizing themselves by going after one market after another & wiping out Americans’ retirement savings, right after they’ve wiped out Americans’ housing wealth & caused them to lose their jobs as well?

Is the FED not only giving the banks taxpayer dollars via the FED open window to short viciously, but if that doesn’t succeed, then bailing them out one Friday after another at taxpayer expense?
