Recently I've been watching CNBC and during the last couple days they've been saying that trading curbs have gone in due to the volatility. What does this mean? What are the curbs?

sub-prime mortgages ballooned from a marginal, once in a blue moon product to big business in the past 5 years.

in that period, there hasn't been a real estate market downturn, nor an interest rate cycle, nor a recession.

so, the financial markets have no experience to rely on when they estimate what proportion of these sub-primes might prove to be losses. It could be 3% or it could be 30% -- there just isn't much to base an estimate on.

but the volume is large ... 100 billion or more in assets at book value.

so the markets don't know if this is a 3 billion or 30 billion loss.

and when the markets don't know, what they do is refuse to buy the stuff. and refuse to buy stocks that rely on the stuff.

therefore, mortgage houses, investment bankers, hedge fund sponsors, and traditional banks shares and commercial paper are all being shunned until we know more about the size of the losses.

the most specialized mortgage shops are hardest hit.

good thinking??

Once you pur money in managed funds through a financial advisor and I'm not happy with their services how can I suck them? I don't want to pay 1.5% annual handling charge to an incompetent advisor.
Would it cost money to change financial advisors?

The Heymann Company’s bonds have 4 years remaining to maturity. Interest is paid annually;
the bonds have a $1,000 par value; and the coupon interest rate is 9 percent.
a. What is the yield to maturity at a current market price of (1) $829 or (2) $1,104?
b. Would you pay $829 for one of these bonds if you thought that the appropriate rate of interest
was 12 percent—that is, if kd  12%? Explain your answer.

On the TV it spoke of $30billion was active, then everyone sold, the market crashed and so many people lost money. Where did it go? Was it just a superimposed amount of money or did it actually generate that much cash, did that sum actually physically exist? They spoke of people making losses and loosing life savings and homes. Did anyone make any money from the crash (apart from debt collectors). If the '$30billion' figure existed and led to the crash then how come a maximum limit isn't set, even a virtual maximum limit? Am I trying to simplify an extremely complicated process?

I am not good at interpreting the stock market ups and downs, and I am a noobie on the economics.

Recently this week, every major news papers and news TVs report that there something bad happened the U.S. stock market, and it is affecting the world.

Can anyone tell me what exactly happen and explain to me in easy way?

I honestly do not know what happened to the stock market, and all I know is it is not a good sign.

Can you also tell me, how bad is it? Is it so bad that it deserves to cover the front page of the news paper?

And what will happen as a consequence of this happening?

Thanks in advance.

Also any advice in general? With the mkt's ups & downs, It seems like a golden opportunity to buy low and sell when it goes up past your expense to buy those stocks.But where do I buy cheap?Or is this too risky?

OPM obviously thought I was interested in fundamentals and just as obviously thought that by "beta charts" I meant charts of beta, rather than Yahoo!'s lame new beta format, which is grossly inferior to the classic format in terms of accuracy and completeness.

When I try to respond, I am chastized for trying to answer my own question. Is this lame or what?!?!?!

80% underperform the Dow
15 % perform at the Dow level
only 5 % and you will never find out who, until afterwards, outperfom the Dow
Above numbers, after adjustment for fund costs

Look at SWRG for 8/16 at the end of the day on both. The closing price was 10.89, but you'd never know it from the beta chart, even a day later when there's no excuse whatsoever for an incomplete chart!
