the underdog

holy crap, i've got such good stuff today. man.

okay, first: i love the psychology argument of investors. economists assume investors to be rational and on top of that make their choices because they have all the necessary information available. both assumptions are wrong and completely false. here is an article where the rational investor argument is blown up. i love it.

another great argument about elizabeth warren who has been put in charge of our beloved TARP money. she makes amazing statements about the insolvency of the american family. she seems to share my hatred/distrust of credit card companies and says american is the only place, i love this, where people save to be bankrupt. that's amazing. read it here.

the "stress-test" results are out and i don't have any links to those but i do have links to the government's methods for testing the stress at the bank. "there's a lot of stress in here. wait...wait.... i just found some more stress. it's over there. see it?"

here is andrew cuomo's letter to the SEC, barney frank, etc. in regards to the BofA merger with Merrill Lynch. lots of juicy stuff in this.

congratulations to my friend ana who got a new job making more money and with a shorter commute. i'm very proud of her.

congratulations to my friend bruce who is going through the final mixes of his band's ep. can't wait to here the results.

and congratulations to me who during a break in songs during the spoon concert, called out opener black nasty. i yelled, "you suck!" and the singer/rapper lowered his head because he knew in his heart i was correct.

"you suck!" very original.
