[13:35] {dino} dji wants green

[13:36] {Threei} Fed's Lacker: Commercial Real estate likely to be a sizeable drag on growth in near term; housing and auto sector no longer causing a drag for growth

[13:36] {Threei} that's a bild statement

[13:36] {Threei} bold

[13:37] {dino} what world does he live in

[13:37] {strider} I don't understand why SRS doesn't go up.

[13:37] {Threei} ummm

[13:37] {Threei} because market doesn't go dopwn?

[13:38] {Threei} what do you think SRS is? :)

[13:38] {nemo} financials are a big part of srs

[13:38] {strider} ultrashort real estate

[13:38] {nemo} has many of the components of skf

[13:38] {Threei} so why would it go up?

[13:39] {dino} reits have been doing very well

[13:39] {strider} because of lagging realestate?

[13:39] {dino} talking heads strider the big reits are rocking

[13:39] {strider} But isn't commercial doing poorly?

[13:40] {nemo} so isn't the economy...what's your point?

[13:40] {dino} not the stocks

06[13:40] * nemo slaps strider around a bit with a large trout

06[13:40] * nemo slaps strider around a bit with a large trout

[13:40] {dino} residential is the drag

[13:40] {strider} eat a fish, nemo.

[13:41] {nemo} that's cannabilism to me

[13:41] {strider} .what's your point?

[13:41] {nemo} har har har

[13:42] {strider} I keep watching SRS, and O (the stock) waiting for a dump. Just simple minded, I guess.

[13:42] {nemo} there's no reason for stocks to go down, no other alternatives

[13:43] {strider} live in igloos.

[13:43] {nemo} have to make new ones every year

[13:43] {strider} Or you could rent my rental house. IT's empty.

[13:45] {dino} strider, most of the big "commercial" real estate companies issued equity months ago, they are fine and moving up

[13:45] {nemo} besides...they know they'll get bailed out because they're backed up by the big banks

[13:45] {dino} it is the banks dumping the houses that remains the problem, imo

[13:46] {nemo} or not dumping them

[13:46] {dino} i think equity issuance took care of that nemo

[13:47] {nemo} yeah, they don't have to, so no write offs to reserve ratios

[13:49] {strider} OK.........obviously I don't understand such stuff.

[13:49] {nemo} Vad'll explain it to you

[13:50] {strider} you mean trades AND knows stuff?

[13:50] {nemo} amazing fellow that Vad

[12:25] {Threei} and she said she loved it.

[12:25] {Threei} Parfume went out of production,

[12:25] {Threei} He went to great lengths to keep finding it

[12:26] {Threei} She never told him she hated it, always,

[12:26] {Threei} she was simply polite that fuirst time,

[12:26] {Threei} and then he was so happy to do it for her

[12:26] {Threei} she kept accepting it and thanking him

[12:28] {larisa} She may be polite but not smart. With men you have to tell them directly what you want.

[13:56] {Threei} - Digital projection and distribution, and the elimination of very expensive film prints, have transformed the business.

[14:02] {Threei} Study on electric cars casts doubt on the chances for widespread adoption of electric cars by 2020 (related ABAT )

[14:03] {Threei} seriously?

[14:04] {Threei} - Although electric-car battery costs are expected to fall sharply over the coming decade, they are unlikely to drop enough to spark widespread adoption of fully electric vehicles without a major breakthrough in battery technology, according to a new study by The Boston Consulting Group (BCG).

[14:04] {Threei} - The study concludes that the long-term cost target used by many carmakers in planning their future fleets of electric cars$250 per kilowatt-hour (kWh)is unlikely to be achieved unless there is a major breakthrough in battery chemistry that substantially increases the energy a battery can store without significantly increasing the cost of either battery materials or the manufacturing process.

[14:04] {Threei} - Most electric cars in the new decade will use lithium-ion batteries, which are lighter and more powerful than the nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries used today in hybrids like the Toyota Prius. Citing the current cost of similar lithium-ion batteries used in consumer electronics (about $250 to $400 per kWh), many original-equipment manufacturers (OEMs) hope that the cost of an automotive lithium-ion battery pack will fall from its current price of between $1,000 and $1,200 per kWh to between $250 and $500 per kWh at scaled production.

[14:04] {Threei} - BCG, however, points out that consumer batteries are simpler than car batteries and must meet significantly less demanding requirements, especially regarding safety and life span. So actual battery costs will likely be higher than what carmakers predict.

[14:04] {Threei} - Despite this cost challenge, the report projects steady growth for electric cars and batteries. Electric cars include mild and full hybrids (like the early Toyota Prius and 2010 Ford Fusion, respectively), which combine an internal combustion engine (ICE) power train with supplementary electric motors to run the car at idle and low speeds; plug-in hybrids and range-extended electric vehicles (such as the next-generation Prius and General Motors' Chevrolet Volt, respectively), which combine electric motors with a supplementary ICE to run the motors after the batteries have been depleted; and fully electric vehicles (like the Mitsubishi i MiEV and upcoming Nissan Leaf), which can only be recharged by plugging into the power grid.

[15:01] {fernp} any news, ad?

[15:01] {fernp} Vad

[15:02] {Threei} I think this:

[15:02] {Threei} US Fed release advice on interest rate risks; firms may be required to take corrective action to curb excessive risk; including possible requirement to hold additional capital

[15:02] {strider} stop to .70 GME

[15:02] {dino} same old same old

[15:02] {Threei} Fed warning banks to protect against a possible scenario whereby the environment of low interest rates end

[15:02] {fernp} cerradlo todo

[15:03] {fernp} wrong window

[15:03] {dino} fed should warn tiger to potect hoimself too

[15:03] {larisa} oh my

[15:03] {fernp} stopped LVS

[15:04] {fernp} i am unable to trade this market

[15:04] {strider} out 1/2 +.13

[15:04] {dino} pretty random afternoon fern

[15:05] {fernp} yes

[15:05] {Threei} The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council, which includes representation from the Fed said: "In the current environment of historically low short-term interest rates, it is important for institutions to have robust processes for measuring and, where necessary, mitigating their exposure to potential increases in interest rates."

[15:05] {Threei} it bweconmes easier fern

[15:06] {Threei} today is noticeably better

[15:06] {patience} just got flushed out of my silver wheaton trade...hudbay keeps chugging up...not that i had the brains to buy in

[15:06] {Threei} just don't forece it, it takes time

[15:06] {fernp} ok

[15:09] {strider} stop to .55 GME

[15:10] {Threei} so, after the shoebomber we get to take our shoes off at the checkpoints

[15:10] {Threei} it scares me that this latest gyuy already got nicknamed an underwear bomber

[15:11] {strider} out balance +.18

[15:11] {larisa} now they can see you naked vad.. get ready when you travel :)

[15:11] {Threei} that I don't care about

[15:11] {strider} now, what type do you think is going to apply for those jobs?

[15:12] {strider} Kind of like morticians.

[15:12] {Threei} yeah, images I saw are not much more than skeletons

[15:13] {Threei} snow in Alabama today

[15:15] {Threei} one image from which I saw had barely visible contours of the body, the rest was skeleton

[15:15] {patience} you flying air canada vad?

[15:15] {Threei} no, Westjet

[15:16] {patience} canadian transportation agency has ruled, portion of plane must be nut free

[15:16] {patience} can't stop laughing

[15:16] {patience} although it is serious for those with allergies

[15:16] {Threei} if I accidentally wind up there, will they insist on amputation?

[15:17] {Threei} SEED... well, worth a try but it's kind of 51/40

[15:17] {Threei} 49

[15:17] {patience} well at least they said you are allowed to carry a book onboard again

[15:18] {Les} s seed .01

[15:19] {strider} CYCC goes momo

[15:19] {Threei} .01?

[15:19] {Threei} why that faR FROM TRIGGER?

[15:19] {Les} chased it

[15:19] {Les} lod was .04

[15:19] {Les} so 3 cents

[15:20] {Les} too much risk?

[15:20] {Threei} well, where is your stop?

[15:20] {Les} .15

[15:20] {Les} it's largish

[15:21] {Les} but risking 14 cents for further b/d before close

[15:21] {strider} CYCC: 2.67

[15:22] {Threei} whole thing feels like one big setup for me

[15:22] {Threei} CYCC has NASDFAQ's notice of delisting

[15:22] {dino} greenn scanners

[15:22] {Threei} from Dec 9

[15:23] {strider} they're over a dollar now. Is that what it was about?

[15:23] {strider} Are you suggesting 'they' are doing this, vad?

[15:24] {Threei} - Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq:CYCC) (Nasdaq:CYCCP) ("Cyclacel" or the "Company") today announced that, on December 9, 2009, the Company was notified by the NASDAQ Staff that the Company does not comply with the minimum $10 million stockholders' equity requirement set forth in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(A) (the "Rule") and that the Company's securities are subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Global Market unless the Company requests a hearing before a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the "Panel").

[15:24] {Threei} Cyclacel intends to timely request a hearing before a Panel, which automatically stays the delisting of the Company's securities pending the issuance of the Panel's decision after a hearing. Under NASDAQ's Listing Rules, the Panel may, at its discretion, determine to continue the Company's listing pursuant to an exception to the Rule for a maximum of 180 days from the date of the Staff's notification or through June 7, 2010. However, there can be no assurances that the Panel will do so.

[15:26] {Les} really? rig one's stock price to stay in the NASDAQ?

[15:26] {strider} so do you think the news is phoney?

[15:26] {Threei} I'vw no idea

[15:29] {Threei} I have certainly seen this kind of situations before

[15:30] {Threei} but I alsao have seen real cases when company would pull itself from brionk of destrcuction

[15:30] {Threei} only typed better

[15:31] {Threei} I even saw a case when CEO promised great news after the close, and got a lot of people to buy... only to announce voluntary delisting

[15:31] {fernp} lol

[15:31] {strider} ha

[15:31] {Threei} where is cosmo, he could name the symbol right away :)

[15:31] {Threei} it's a real story, I am not kidding

[15:32] {strider} I guess he sold his shares before close.

[15:32] {fernp} of course

[15:32] {Threei} better yet

[15:32] {Threei} stock went to pink sheets, and in a few months he nmanaged to maNIPULATE THE PRICE TO ABOUT 15

[15:33] {Threei} so, in a way he was right... it was a good news

[15:33] {strider} news was that CEO was a very clever guy.

[15:36] {strider} where IS cosmo?

[15:36] {Threei} still in Australia?

[15:36] {strider} vacation?

[15:37] {Threei} that's what he said

[15:46] {fernp} SDS short if breaks .30?

[15:47] {Threei} if market breaks out, sure

[15:47] {Threei} but are you willing to play general market breakout right now?

[15:47] {fernp} nah

[15:53] {fernp} Good evening everybody. See you all tomorrow

[15:55] {Les} Umar Farouk?

[15:55] {strider} No. No parallel universe for that.

[15:56] {Threei} he can't stand

[15:56] {Threei} nor sit

[15:56] {Threei} nor procreate

[15:56] {Threei} there are natural consequences to setting one's crotch on fire, ya know
