Now It's Citi!!!

by Larry Levin

One day it's Merrill Lynch, the next day it's Citibank. When will it end? Not real soon, that's for sure. But don't worry because the Fed will try and bail us out once again at their next meeting.

But it does make you wonder when the credit issues will ever get behind us. It looks like we will see more headlines over the next couple of months. It does give us futures traders are chance to be short. There's been good money being short lately.
