Wow...tomorrow's really going to suck when I walk into work.

Lehman is apparently going to declare bankruptcy.

Dow futures are already down 300+ points.

Im sure that Bank of American buying out Merrill and AIG spinning off ILF (which is great news for me as I have a few clients who hold International Lease Finance corporate notes...8% for 18 months is a pretty good deal) will not really help all that much.

Fucking market.

Better investments than the "buy a house with your gf fund"

I just punched myself.

Compared to whats going on now I think I may actually start recommending that people buy property with their girlfriends.

With all the rain you've had today, you might be canoeing into the office.

I love going to work when the market is down! I thought you were into ultra conservative positions?

Most of my clients are, but when the markets down 300 points unless you are in 100% individual bonds theres really nowhere to hide.

Plus Ill have to spend 3/4 of my day calling all of my clients explaining whats going on.

And you can be in 100% fixed income products and STILL have no place to hide, just ask some of my private equity & hedge fund clients! Debt markets go down too.

I'm sure they'll be calling you. Sell all my stocks! Put me in cash! The sky is falling. I used to work for Lehman Bros in ATL.

Somehow I feel the AAA tax-free municipal bonds backed by taxation are going to have a good day tomorrow...
