All subjects to changes w/o notices as in it on going negotiation. Details on the plans (plan no: 1)
The principles the Democrats said had been agreed upon call for Congress to make $250 billion available immediately with $100 billion available, if needed, without requiring additional congressional approval, said two senior Democratic aides familiar with the negotiations. The second half of $350 billion would then become available by a special approval of Congress. On executive compensation, the draft would require limits on compensation for executives of any company participating in the bailout. These caps would apply for as long as the company is in the program. This would include some language to limit excess "golden parachutes." Treasury will also get an equity stake in the companies being helped by the bailout, though what type remains to be worked out. Still to be worked out is whether to allow bankruptcy judges to modify mortgage terms, a provision backed by many Democrats and community activists but opposed by Republicans and the banking industry. Details on the plans (plan nos: 2 and next...?)

Treasury would also get an equity stake in the companies being helped by the bailout, though what type remains to be worked out. But House Republicans are not on board, according to Minority Leader Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio. "House Republicans have not agreed to any plan at this point," Boehner said Thursday. Instead, they issued a statement of economic rescue principles that calls for Wall Street to fund the recovery by injecting private capital - not taxpayer dollars - into the financial markets. Easing tax laws would prompt investors to put in their own dollars, they said. The plan also calls for: participating firms to disclose the value of the mortgage assets on their books, ending Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's securitization of "unsound mortgages," reviewing the performance of the credit rating agencies and having the Securities and Exchange Commission audit failed companies to ensure their financial standing was accurately portrayed. House Republicans also want to create a panel to make recommendations for reforming the financial industry by year's end. Meanwhile, the ranking Republican on the Senate Banking Committee has another idea. Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala., said he doesn't support the Treasury plan until there is serious consideration of alternatives. He proposed Thursday adding funds to the Federal Reserve and Treasury to allow them to lend more to financial institutions. CNN Correspondent Kate Bolduan and Congressional producers Deirdre Walsh and Lesa Jansen contributed to this report.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- JP Morgan bought Washington Mutual after it was seized by federal regulators in the biggest bank failure in history. Credit markets remained jammed, with short-term borrowing costs rising as banks clung to cash amid the ongoing uncertainty. The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) lost about 140 points, or 1.3% in the early going. The Standard & Poor's 500 (SPX) index fell 1.7% and the Nasdaq composite (COMP) lost 2.2%. |

Hi Everybody Don't you all think the title of this tread is so super wrong already? Reaching 3,000? When? In 2010? The market talk is that it will break 2,000 very soon. Why not somebody start a new tread with the title "STI to break 2,000 soon with the help of short sellers". |

eh. I think you're talking about WaMu (washington mutual)? JPM Chase took it over for 1.9billion. This one shouldn't be a factor in market movement, since its collapse was whispered about (along with MS) for the past week or so already; kinda a given that it would fall. news article as attached: http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,24405622-643,00.html actually, what has collapsed has collapsed, what needed to be taken over/converted has been done so (GS and MS); the only thing affecting markets now is the bailout really. It's currently stalled in the White House. All the drama mamas wanting to make their protests known, when everyone knows they don't have a choice but to pass it. What can we say, it's election season. They can't be seen as patsys for the eating. 
anyhow, see if 2,340 will hold now for the STI. ignore any shadows on the candles since they are whipsaws of panic reactions either way. |

Most of them zoom in on coming F1 saga liao. Went down to the GP cct to take a walk and hv a feel on the lighting systems, last nite. Fantastic is the word. Clark Quay crowded with angmo. Not a bad idea to hv dinner there as u can enjoying your dinner and at the same time listening to the roaring racing car just nearby. |

The Edge listed two groups of yield play, one is 'Beaten-down cyclicals' and the second is 'Steady-divident payers'. http://investsgx.blogspot.com/2008/09/edge-high-yield-stocks-to-watch.html Prudent to collect some yield stock in bear market for retirement portfolio, my personal view only. My personal choice is SPC. Caveat emptor!! |
