11:15 am : CNBC reports that the UAL (UAUA 8.97, -3.33) bankruptcy reports are untrue, with a 4-year-old story somehow being reported as current. The stock is halted for trading.

Today, I bought FNM at 1.25 and got out at 1.47 - lol, too bad it was only 500 shares. Scottrade now will not allow me to purchase FNM FRE or UAUA through the computer, I am sure because of the crazy day that those 3 are experiencing.

AAI....Guessing it goes down Today. But still think its a great buy for those who hold for a few months.
WM....Opens lower. Think I will play this one again today if I free up some money.
UAUA...Will open higher.
SCA...Bet it closes higher today....thinking $2.76.
So...my father jinxed me. He called me at 8am and said the market was UP HUGE. I asked him about SCA since I was short and freaked. So, that is how it started. He is loaded up big time with BAC....thinking he has 6,800 shares or so, so he was super geeked to see it up $3.00+. Well, things happen. But patience is the best practice.
So, for anyone who has balls, FRE and FNM will be good day traders again today...but which side of the fence to be one, I have no idea. Just hoping I'm on the right side. ($1.43 break even at 3,000 shares)

Welcome back! Been a while since you posted. I have been missing lately. Have to get back to fundamentals.
So....FRE and FNM got taken over by FEDS. Rumors are that the tax payers and shareholders get screwed. Will have to see how it pans out but BEWARE!!!
I'm thinking this will be a blow to the financials Monday. Maybe the entire market.
Quite a trip. I don't get on the boards like I use to since they changed our computers at work. Been able to once in a while. Been hangin at Topgun mostly. Only thing I was able to mess with yesterday was my practice account on updown. Pretty cool site for practicing. PM me your e-mail if you want and I'll send you an invite.

Check the news on SCA, I think they will dip since being downgraded again by Fitch. They have deals in the woodworks bla bla bla but if the media controls these bond insurers like they have been - the fitch news will prevail and this would dip. Still has some decent strength so we'll see.

Enter F into pincher status. My chart links that I posted from Sunday didn't work but it reacted like I thought it would with my hooks on ACC/Dist and CMF. Now it needs to break the 50 on RSI and break resistance around 4.70. Good luck R-1, I'll try to get here when I can!

I got in NTGR the other day at 15.90. Looking to exit at 16.90.

GLW... Just moved in at $16.35 looking to sell at $18-19 in the next 14 to 30 days. Getting ready for a move. It's been calm for the past few days in the $16 - 17 range. Oversold and ready to pop soon...

This could explain it a bit... Sector Wrap: Mortgage insurers fall Monday September 8, 4:34 pm ET Shares of mortgage insurers fall despite government's plan to inject $200B in Fannie, Freddie
NEW YORK (AP) -- Shares of mortgage insurers declined Monday, even as most financial stocks rose, after an analyst said the government's takeover of mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could make the mortgage insurance industry obsolete.
Late Sunday, the Treasury Department vowed to invest up to $200 billion in the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) in an effort to stabilize the disruption in the housing market.
The plan is expected to help lower mortgage rates, and in turn offer some relief to consumers struggling with increasing payments.
Friedman, Billings, Ramsey & Co. analyst Steve Stelmach said he expects little immediate impact on the mortgage insurance industry as a result of the bailout. But over the long term, it's possible that mortgage insurance could become an obsolete form of credit enhancement, he said.
"The U.S. Treasury and the Federal Housing Finance Agency are actively trying to facilitate mortgage market liquidity, and Congress could help with that goal by waiving the need for mortgage insurance and the associated premiums," Stelmach wrote. "That decision is not without risk to the U.S. Treasury, however, as we estimate that the mortgage insurance industry has saved GSEs, and by extension the federal government, roughly $15 billion over the past two-and-a-half years."
Stelmach reiterated his "Market Perform" ratings on Radian Group Inc., MGIC Investment Corp. and PMI Group Inc. Radian Group specifically could see further pressure on its stock price, Stelmach said.
Radian Group fell 60 cents, or 12.5 percent, to close at $4.19.
PMI shed 3 cents to end at $4.28.
MGIC lost 41 cents, or 4.4 percent, to finish at $8.80.

I thought of playing FRE and FNM again, that's about as far as I got. Looks like they're on the bounce right now.
