Thanks a lot wiwath. It means they are really down in the dumps. Do u get the feeling this recession is more poisonous than the previous. At least in the previous recession US experienced there was no collapse of financial industry. Here with recession there is collapse of Financial industry itself. Its scary. It might lead to two things.

WAR (invasion etc)

A famine with all the technology available to us in the 21st century, we will be starved. LOL...

Commercial Paper, Exactly what does it mean?

Posted by : winwath

Hey Lady

Commercial paper is nothing but a unsecured promisary note - there is no collateral involved.

only the companies with very best credit rating manage to sell their commercial paper.

it is like a Fixed deposit - it earns interest and is for max 270 days in the USA - however if the issuer goes bankrupt before the maturity - God save the purchaser of the commercial paper - It automatically become toilet paper ;)

"If It Ain`t the Next Depression, It`s Time to Buy
By Dr. Steve Sjuggerud

As long as we`re not heading into the Next Great Depression... it`s time to buy stocks.

That`s the message I got from studying 150 years of stock-market data this week...

I can`t know the future, of course. But I do know in the last 70 years, the stock market has turned in a worse 12-month performance (if October closes at today`s levels) only once. That came toward the end of the horrendous bull market of 1973-74.

While the average investor has been chasing the latest investment fad...

America`s Greatest Business has quietly been making some smart people a ton of money.

Like Barry Slagle, a former clerk from California-New York Times reports that Barry now has "several million dollars, and savors his good fortune daily..."

This opportunity is not only better than penny stocks, currencies, and options... it`s better than practically any other investment you can think of.

But after stocks fell 41% in 12 months... they were up 32% a year later.

It turns out this is the rule, not the exception... When stocks have a terrible 12 months, they typically have a good 12 months after that. Take a look:

Date


Worst 12-month falls


P/E after fall


1 year later


3 years later

May 1970


-26%


14.7


30%


37%

Sep 1974


-41%


8.0


32%


52%

Jul 1982


-18%


7.4


52%


78%

Aug 1988


-21%


14.1


34%


51%
Sep 2001
-28%

25.3

-22%

7%

Oct 2008

-28%


12.4*

*PE

Looking farther back (150 years), the pattern continues:

Date


12-month fall


P/E after fall


1 year later


3 years later

Jun 1877


-34%





25%


75%

Nov 1907


-37%


10.6


41%


49%

Oct 1930


-36%


18.2


-43%


-47%

Jun 1932


-66%


5.6


118%


112%

Mar 1938


-43%


12.4


20%


-3%

The only times you didn`t make double-digit positive returns 12 months after a major fall were after the dot-com bust and in the Great Depression.

In those two cases, you were starting from record-high valuations. A big difference today is, stocks are cheap.

So, yes, the stock market has just experienced its second-worst 12-month fall in the last 70 years (again, if it closes this month at today`s levels). But generally when this happens, it`s time to buy, not time to sell.

(An important note here... All of this data is from the worst 12-month period in a bear market. We may not have seen the worst 12-month period in this bear yet. We can`t know.)

The point is, you`d have made solid double-digit returns every time going back 150 years, except twice... after 1929 and after 2000. In both those cases, stocks were so overpriced, they were still expensive even after their 12-month fall. In short, they had farther to fall.

The biggest gains, of course, were made when stocks were the cheapest after a fall. By 1932, stocks were darn cheap, at a P/E of 5.6. Stocks rose 118% in the next 12 months.

More recently, stocks were extremely cheap in 1982 after a big 12-month fall. They were at a P/E of 7.4. Sure enough, they rose 52% in the next 12 months.

So are stocks cheap or expensive now? Stocks are cheaper today than they`ve been in over 20 years. (The forward P/E of the S&P 500 is about 12.3.)

We`re missing the uptrend, so I can`t recommend buying just yet. (It could arrive tomorrow... Or it could take years.) But history suggests stocks will be higher by double digits 12 months from now...

Good investing,
Steve

Dow Futures rebound on news that the Federal Reserve created a commercial paper funding facility, where it will buy three-month commercial paper. It is meant to provide a liquidity backstop, as the commercial paper market has been strained.

When the White House brought out its $700 billion rescue plan two weeks ago, its sheer size was meant to soothe the global financial system, restoring trust and confidence. Three days after the plan was approved, it looks like a pebble tossed into a churning sea.

The crisis that began as a made-in-America subprime lending problem and radiated across the world is now circling back home, where it pummeled stock and credit markets on Monday.

While the Bush administration’s bailout package offers help to foreign banks, it seems to have done little to reassure investors, particularly in Europe, where banks are failing and countries are racing to stave off panicky withdrawals after first playing down the depth of the crisis.

Far from being the cure for the world’s ills, economists said, the rescue plan might end up being a stopgap for the United States alone. With Europe showing few signs of developing a coordinated response to the crisis, there is very little on the horizon to calm rattled investors.

The vertiginous drop in stock markets on both sides of the Atlantic on Monday reflected not only those fears, experts said, but also a growing belief that the crisis could tip the world into a global recession.

Indeed, the ripple effects from Europe and the United States were amplified as they spread to stock markets in Russia, Brazil, Indonesia and the Middle East.

European governments struggled to find a coordinated response to the crisis sweeping financial markets on Monday, as one country after another announced sweeping deposit guarantees on their own to try and shore up their banks. Stock markets plunged.

Iceland joined Denmark in becoming the latest countries to declare a deposit guarantee on Monday after a startling announcement by German Chancellor Angela Merkel that her government would guarantee all private bank savings and CDs held in the euro zone\`s single largest economy. \"We want to tell people that their savings are safe,\" she said.

Failing confidence in the financial system, undermined by a series of bank bailouts, was forcing officials hands, analysts said, since a failure to match the guarantees of varying clarity by Ireland, France, Greece, and Sweden could risk a massive funds outflow from their countries\` coffers.

Yet the cascading guarantees themselves raised questions about their potential impact on government finances, and showed that European governments were still unable to find on a unified approach despite a weekend summit where they agreed to do just that.

\"Governments have no choice but to give the guarantees on deposits, otherwise we will see runs on banks and a complete loss of business and consumer confidence,\" said Neil Mackinnon, chief economist at ECU Group.
