Hello salad-dodgers,

I am in your neck of the woods this evening, assisting Mr. Bilderberg at his Wall Street penthouse suites. He assures me that our stay will be for a limited time. I understand he intends to pick a barney with the banking fellows down the block.

Just today I overheard him discussing with a Mr. James Dimon, and I quote: “Take the wamu and get lost”.

From this I deduce JPMorgan Chase & Co. [[JPM]] will become the new bedsitter for ropey Californian cack handers.

It is my personal belief that Mr. Bilderberg intends to watch the festivities on Wall Street, as your fellow country men and elected officials expedite America’s certain demise.

Listen to me very quietly, as if every one of your investment banks was eliminated from practice: sell short all available shares of U.S. Bancorp [[USB]] all the way to zero.

Good Day

Rag
