Opening Segment 1
Title: |
'Negative Charge'

Round picks

JJC: Why did I
come out smiling?... You
know why!... You know
why!... Because it's
happening again!...
Everybody else is way too
negative!
Short-term, we're too
negative. Long
term... no doubt about it,
we've got some problems...
We had a tremendous plunge
in all the commodities
today, along with all the
financials... a lot of
other stocks...
We took down a lot of good
stocks today, that don't
have anything to do with
Bernanke... that have
nothing to do with the
United States economy...
that have nothing to do
with consumer spending...
That's how I know we got
too negative...
Now, I have no doubt that
some sectors are in real
trouble... Now, a
bunch of companies need to
raise cash, because
they're on life
support!...
There's carnage out
there!... And, as long as
housing continues to
depreciate, things are
going to get worse...
. . . .
.
Don't forget, the most
quickly depreciating asset
is in your wallet... or in
your cash reserves... it's
cash... It's this.
This is what's
depreciating in yield.
And what we heard from the
Fed today is that it's
going even lower.
So, how can you not
consider stocks with
higher dividends here?...
Or with bonds?...
. . . .
.
Let's talk about why I
want to buy something
here...
First, I am not hearing
anyone else say to buy
anything. Everyone
seems pretty petrified,
frankly... Everyone
is really scared...
Second, the bets against
stocks are
unbelievable!...
Unbelievably off the
charts!... I
have never seen so much
shorting and
put buying in my life!
You would think that this
is the end of the world
for some of us!...
. . . .
.
We are at levels that we
always see - in put buying
and shorting - at bottoms,
not tops. I believe
that, tomorrow, we will be
very oversold on things
that I use...
We've got so many people
shorting, no one thinks
that anything will go
right...
Nothing good is priced
into this market!
Anything positive will
have a huge impact!...
I like that...
. . . .
.
You know the bull
markets!... They're ag...
they're defense...
minerals... oil and gas...
healthcare cost
containment. They're
still bullish!...
You know I think the
dividend yielders are
making more sense than
ever, with cash rates
going down... for cash.
You know the negativity...
I am sorry, but this
decline, and this amount
of negativity says that,
if anything good happens,
you're going to catch a
rally!... Buy, buy,
buy!...
. . . .
.
Think back to January...
We got the same level of
negativity then. I
advised you to buy a
little... I said that you
should buy some of those
bull market stocks...
You made great, great
buys, if you listened...
I am telling you that this
could happen again...
. . . .
.
When the Fed is saying
everything bad...
When the Fed acknowledges
that things are going to
get worse... that's
what we've wanted...
You can't run from the
market. You should
be running to the market
when Bernanke understands
the gravity of the chaos,
and the carnage that he's
caused by being really
late!
. . . .
.
The Bottom Line!:
We've gotten way too
negative!... with way too
many people betting
against the market.
If you have some cash, use
the weakness to buy
something! If you
have a lot of stock, then
wait to sell for better
levels. No one
believes that right now,
except for me. So be
a small believer. Do
me a favor... buy
something.

Opening Segment 2
Title: |
'Heavy Merge' |
|

Featured Stock(s): |
Sirius Satellite Radio
Inc. (SIRI)
XM Satellite Radio (XMSR)

After this segment, you
can see Jim's Lightning
Round picks
here... |
JJC: One year
and 15 days... For
over a year now, congress
has been trying to block
Sirius (SIRI)
and XM Satellite Radio (XMSR)
from merging... keeping
you from having a
choice... keeping
the stockholders from
making money...
They've held four hearings
for this, by the way...
when they held none for
Chevron/Texaco... only one
for Exxon/Mobil... both of
which were completely and
utterly, and totally
anti-competitive, if you
ask me... and were a lot
more important than the
radio...
. . . .
.
[General comments
regarding how ridiculous
the delay and obstacles
created by our U.S.
Congress and congressional
hearings regarding this
deal.]
. . . .
.
The Bottom Line!:
We've heard the objections
of
Sirius (SIRI)
and
XM (XMSR).
They can't stand up to the
facts. We appreciate
anyone coming on, and
giving us the case for it,
but the arguments don't
hold water.
Congress, Justice, FCC...
help the consumer.
Let this deal go through!

Back up the truck -
indicated by Jim, when he
says the stock is so good,
that he would do a
'mon-back' on the stock...
In other words, this is the
sound someone would say to a
truck driver, "Come on
back... " as he is "backing
up the truck" to load up on
his cargo. Translation
for buying stocks:
This recommendation by Jim
indicates that, after you do

homework on the stock,
