    • 家园 BSC的BALANCE SHEET怎么样?

      对投行的BALANCE SHEET不熟悉,好像CASH很多啊。不过1-3个BILLION对BEAR也不是小数。。。

      http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bs?s=BSC

      http://biz.yahoo.com/rb/070629/bearstearns_fund.html?.v=5

      另外,BEAR是不是不一定要BAIL OUT?亏得是投资者的钱。它这么做是为了信誉么?

      有没有人知道这两个FUND的主要投资者是谁?

      飞人兄的HOV推荐的很牛啊,兄弟顺手小赚了点。谢谢。。最弱的SECTOR里的最弱的股票。。呵呵。飞人兄是否觉得HOV会破产?谢谢。。

      • 家园 BSC出手是为了掩盖丑陋的真相

        另外,BEAR是不是不一定要BAIL OUT?亏得是投资者的钱。它这么做是为了信誉么?

        不到万一,熊死蹬是绝对不会自己拿钱出来搭救hedge fund。真正的原因是如果不出手,hf会死的很难看,连带熊死蹬也会暴露严重损失。拿出现金注入,可以拖一拖,寄希望于这些CDO烂帐不必mark to market。就是如此,BSC还是力不能逮,救得了第一个,救不了第二个,所以才说有机可乘。

        HOV是有破产的可能,看前贴,债务是现金的2400多倍。

        我玩的类似put不止HOV一个,BZH, AHM都有大跌。

      • 家园 Bear的balance sheet还是不错的

        bear是street上靠settlement起家的,应该是最保守的那种,所以历史上躲开了无数次大灾大难。

        这次bail out完全是不得已,因为它的另一个fund是公司的旗舰,之前连续盈利了40个季度,投资人早赚翻了,这次出事的fund原来打算做成第一个的mirror, 去年为是不是成立新基金,公司内部还进行了辩论,如果不bail out,第一个基金的投资人要cash out就麻烦了。

        谁是投资人真的不重要了,因为leverage到10倍以上,真正的风险都压在了占9/10贷款的banker们身上了。

    • 家园 【文摘】The Ticking Time Bomb

      The Ticking Time Bomb In Your Portfolio

      by Alexander Green, Chairman, Investment U

      Investment Director, The Oxford Club

      Dear Investment U Reader,

      You may have a ticking time bomb in your brokerage account. If so, you need to get rid of it immediately. Today.

      Let me explain why…

      The financial press loves it when the mighty stumble. And so it has had a field day lately covering Bear Stearns’ $3.2 billion bail out of one of its ailing hedge funds. The fund made a specialty of investing – with leverage, of course – in subprime mortgages.

      Although Bear Stearns is a leader in both underwriting and trading esoteric securities backed by mortgages, the firm apparently failed to talk to my tennis partner Jim, who owns a mortgage company in Orlando.

      “You wouldn’t believe the crap we’re writing now,” he told me last year. “I’ve never seen anything like it in my life. If you want a mortgage today, you don’t need income, you don’t need assets, you don’t need a credit record, you don’t even need a down payment. All you need is two things: a house… and a pulse.”

      Risky Loans Make Toxic Investments

      Over the past few years, subprime mortgages became not just loans to people with less than stellar credit. They became loans to people who were such poor credit risks they had no business buying a house in the first place.

      “Thank God we’re selling these mortgages off as soon as we write them,” Jim added.

      So who buys these crummy mortgages? The folks on Wall Street. But not for themselves, of course. They find unique and innovative ways to package and resell them to Mom and Pop.

      More specifically, Wall Street takes pools of mortgages and turns them into securities known as collateralized debt obligations, or CDOs. (Years ago, we used to call them CMOs – collateralized mortgage obligations.) There were $316.4 billion in mortgage-related CDOs issued last year, according to the Financial Markets Association. More than $1 trillion have been issued, in total.

      Some of these securities are safe and carry low yields. But many of them are toxic. They carry attractive yields. But they are not attractive investments. Most of them are risky, poorly understood, thinly traded and prone to going bump in the night.

      If your broker has sold you a high-yielding CDO, sell it at market today. There’s a good chance the price of these securities is going to get a whole lot worse before it gets better.

      I’m not just whistling Dixie here…

      More Bailouts to Follow

      Bear Stearns did not bail out its hedge fund investors out of the goodness of its heart. The firm has made its fortune putting other people’s capital at risk, not its own.

      However, redemptions at the fund were coming in faster than Bear could safely unwind its positions. If lenders had seized the fund’s assets and dumped billions of dollars in mortgage-related securities into the market at fire-sale prices, it would have caused a meltdown in the subprime securities market… and would have exposed Bear to substantial losses.

      Sticking it to investors and lenders would have ruined the firm’s reputation. And a Wall Street firm with a bad reputation doesn’t last long. Just ask the folks who used to work for Drexel Burnham.

      Faced with no real alternative, Bear decided last week to pony up a million dollars… 3,200 times. This was the biggest hedge fund bail out since 1998 when more than a dozen lenders (orchestrated by Fed Chairman Greenspan) provided $3.6 billion to save Long-Term Capital Management.

      With more than $1.2 trillion washing around in hedge funds today – most of it leveraged – my guess is we’re going to see more of these bailouts in the near future. Or, worse, liquidations that cause chaos in this market because the funds aren’t there for a bailout.

      Take my advice. If you have a high-yielding mortgage security in your brokerage account, don’t ask questions and don’t wait for a rebound. Get rid of that ticking time bomb today.

      Good investing,

      Alex

    • 家园 道指也有人操纵?

      怎么和A股似的,郎教授天天电视上叫唤美国股市监管如何如何严厉如何如何严刑峻法等等一系列,企不是忽悠俺们大陆老百姓啊

      • 家园 美国是腐败的资本主义,是成熟型的腐败!

        什么都披上合法的外衣,里面败絮其中,臭不可闻。

    • 家园 追高杀低,熊和牛也可以在一个碗里吃饭
    • 家园 它的option表现如何?

      这些家伙在披露之前保护动作还是做过的吧?要当心陷阱。

      如果华尔街的竞争对手要是就此兼并了它,也许是个机会。

      • 家园 华尔街小动作多多

        短线可能做个套什么的,但是扛不住长线的压力。所以买put要至少三个月的周旋时间。

    • 家园 我琢磨这个bzh还大有可为

      这个销毁文件当年Arthur Andersen可也是干过的。。。

      • 家园 bzh当然是麻烦缠身

        这两天加速下跌,令俺有卖早了的感觉!

        • 家园 这两天完全是因为捅出了销毁文件的事情,才猛然坠落……

          不过本肥腩大胆预测,根本就不是这位老兄自主地销毁文件,而是Beazer给了钱他,让他经手销毁,然后再把他解雇,这样板子都打到他的屁股上,而他已经有一堆钱垫在上面,也不怕疼……
