I hope Blue Oyster Cult allows this new rendition of their Don't Fear the Reaper:
I wrote this for Citibank 3/27/08 5:35 PM:
All our times have come
Bear Sterns but now they're gone
Investment Banks don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
Citibank can be like they are
Come on Citibank... Don't fear the Reaper
Citibank take my hand... Don't fear the Reaper
Your to big to fly... Don't fear the Reaper
With Helicopter Ben...
LTCM is done
Bear Sterns but now they're gone
Bear Sterns and JP Morgan
Are together in eternity...
Bear Sterns and JP Morgan
3,960 bankruptcies everyday... Like AHM and NetBank
3,960 bankruptcies everyday... Redefine happiness
Another 3,960 coming everyday...Citibank can be like they are
Come on Citibank... Don't fear the Reaper
Citibank take my hand... Don't fear the Reaper
Your to big to fly... Don't fear the Reaper
With Helicopter Ben...
Leveraged 32 to 1
Bear Sterns but now they're gone
BSC the last night of over leverage
And it was clear Bear Sterns couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the FED appeared
The Helicopter Ben blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then JP Morgan appeared
Saying don't be afraid
Come on Citibank... And Bear Sterns had no fear
And Bear Sterns took their January bonuses... Then they started to fly
They looked backward and said goodbye
Bear Sterns had become like they are
Bear Sterns had taken their bonuses
Bear Sterns had become like they are
Come on Citibank...don't fear the reaper
I was called "facile", on my posting/pitch writing. Which is pretty accurate term on some of my pitches.
When a stock has an obvious reason to underperform or go bankrupt, I do not waste a lot of time rewriting reasons or posting research on a stock. The reasons should be apparent to anyone with basic financial literacy, the internet and 5 minutes to research that certain stocks are garbage. If a Top Fool has already posted a good link and reasons, I will not rewite the obvious. I like to throw humor at the community and these ridiculous companies. Here are a few examples:
SBUX, JSDA, AKNS, V, LEH, WUHN.OB, AEBF.OB, HOTT, LSCG.OB
