Recovery Sooner Than Later?
The market is supposed to be a forward-looking discounting machine. It’s supposed to price in what’s expected to happen over the next few months and years. Is the market perfect at this? No. If it were, there would be no real opportunity to do well in it. The market is, however, very good at incorporating…
Where were you that 2 nights were blacked out???? Or was the second night your own blackout after partying the first night???
Though the Dow was up only 0.81% and the S&P up only 1.2%, the FXI (China A shares ETF)was up 7.6%, Taiwan Semiconductor(TSM) +5%, Mizuho Bank(MFG) + 6.3% and HQS +11%..THAT’S BETA.
summer blackout 2003 was probably the most kick ass 2 nights of my entire life.

Stella’s and Rounds were the last of the great true hustler bars. Rounds was gentrified years ago into some UES asshole hangout. If they only knew what it used to be!!! Stella’s was run by this real rough woman character who was also quite attractive. It was, shall we say, not as high class a crowd as Rounds but I can still remember meeting the likes of Goldman Sachs partners there trolling. It was on 47th St just east of 8th ave next to the China Bar (?). It too alas has been gentrified into an Irish bar. I spent 9-11 and blackout evening both at Stella’s.

“Last night foreigners (US and EU mutual funds) were climbing all over themselves to buy stocks in Taiwan and Korea.”

“There’s an asian hunk or two from that website, I wouldn’t mind showing my rice patty to…”

Nokilissa,
Trust me…it’s not nearly as glamorous as it sounds. I really only did it for the money. Finding out that I got to keep the clothes was icing on the cake.
Otherwise, I found it tedious, at best.
I’m not familiar with Stella’s….where was it?
Candle Bar is still up there though, as is 8 of Clubs, I think…
The Ritz is down on like 46th between 8th and 9th. Great crowd. And I’m not really a gay bar kinda guy, in general but it’s really fun.
There’s an asian hunk or two from that website, I wouldn’t mind showing my rice patty to…
