Here are 799 examples of what not to do in the markets.

Below is a list of 799 financial stocks that can not be shorted... at least for now.

It's been one heck of a week. I think the best way to describe it is AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!

The thing to do right now is to use common sense and stay cool. Remember, you have all year to trade. This week, while volatile, has not reversed the downward trend for the financials, it merely averted a meltdown in the financial markets.

There are a lot of opportunities to trade. Removing 799 stocks out of the short-sale basket doesn't make things all hunky-dory again, it simply puts the brakes on. There are, and there will be some more amazing opportunities to make money in Q 4 and in '09. All you have to do is stay tuned to this blog and we will share our thoughts and ideas with you.

  1. I only count 797. What two are missing? Did you get this from the SEC site, because they are only showing 797

    Hi John,

    I don't know where Adam got the list of the short banned financial stocks, but I just checked on the SEC site and the are reporting 799...

    "The Commission’s action will apply to the securities of 799 financial companies. The action is immediately effective."

    Thanks,

  2. Adam......Many thankyous for your dedicated effort spent posting and sharing your thoughts on this very tricky and difficult market.I agree that the financial market may not be out of the woods just yet,but betting against the Fed is probably not the way to make money.....hence i have ceased being a bear.....well at least in financials,but your analysis on the PSQ and the Qid are right on.....and we could well see a disconnect between the Dow and the Nasdaq....the Dow goes up while the Nasdaq falls.....we've seen that before......haven't we.....

  3. Yes, let's kill all the evil, degenerate short sellers and then our lives will be wonderful and our economy will florish and all will be well! We will be a GREAT NATION again!

    Hitler had the same idea but it was the Jews who he used as scapegoats! Do we really want to let the goverment and Wall Street use short sellers as scapegoats for the real problems with our markets and economy!

    Not me. I refuse to be manipulated by powerful men blowing smoke to hide their criimes and greed and stupidity! Email the SEC today and tell them they are morons!

  6. THANK YOU FOR GIVING US THE INFOREMATION FOR THIS
    DIFFICULT TIME.
    UNFORTUNELY FOR SOME REASON CAN NOT OPEN THE OTHER 774 STOCKS.
    I HOPE THE SITUATION WILL CHANGE SO WE CAN RECOVER SOME OF OUR HUGE LOSSES
    ADAM THANK YOU ONCE MORE FOR SHARING THE INFORMATION PROMPTLY

    BEST REGARD
    NETTY
