Oct 01 2009

Freeport, Bahamas conference - January 2010
Vad's sessions - 2 days, including live trading


Things were slow and stops equaled profits, and the day looked useless with those BAC win, HIG stop, RIMM win, AIG stop... but then AIG started breaking down and short plays on it brought us in the green. Trend is trend.

Session Time: Thu Oct 01 00:00:00 2009

[08:41] {Threei} this is funny:
[08:41] {Threei} PIMCO's Bill Gross releases Oct Monthly Investment Outlook
[08:41] {Threei} - Now that our financial system has been stabilized, one wonders whether Californias Governator and indeed the Obama Administration has the capital, the vision, and indeed the discipline of its citizenry to turn things around. Our future doggie bags can hold steak bones or doo-doo of an increasingly familiar smell. For now investors should be holding their noses, their risk orientation, as well as their blue bags, until proven otherwise. Specifically that continues to dictate a focus on high quality bonds and steady dividend paying stocks that can survive, if not thrive, in our journey to a new normal economy of slower growth, muted profit gains, and potential capital destruction via default, abrogation of property rights, and dollar devaluation.
[08:41] {nemo} wow
[08:45] {cosmo} CHTP

[08:48] {Threei} Chelsea Therapeutics Analysis Confirms Significant Symptomatic Benefit of Droxidopa in Treatment of Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension
[08:48] {Threei} - Announced that continued analysis of previously reported results from Study 302, the first of two pivotal Phase III trials in Chelsea's registration program of Droxidopa for the treatment of symptomatic, neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (NOH), confirm statistically significant benefits across five clinically relevant assessment criteria that reflect symptomatic improvements and corroborate other supportive symptom data.
