geyamala | Why did the $700 billion bail out package fail to cheer the investors? |
even after passing that bill ,every day there is bloodbath, carnage in the global stock markets. |

Because the true source of the financial mess U.S. is in, is a slow-down of growing economy and stoppage of capital liquidity. Because of the over production in the housing market and bad loans that cannot be paid off, investors are all losing money and banks are crashing. The "$700 billion bail out" plan is merely a short-term displacement of "blame" from faulty bankrupt banking institutions onto U.S. Taxpayers, and by no means can guarantee a long-term solution to the fiscal and monetary problems we now face.
And since the U.S. economy is the largest in the world, all of the other countries are now suffering from the meltdown as well. This causes investors and consumers to have less confidence, driving losses in the stock market prices and rising inflation/deflation worldwide. On a positive note, though, history proves that an economic upswing follows every recession. |

When they rejected the bailout plan, markets were so worried and uncertain about what was going to happen. That caused the plunge worth $3.4 billions already. When they approved, it was too late (although it was only few days difference). They tried to stop the extended loss but people already less trust that. It becomes a global crisis and this is a domino effect. In another world, everybody gets effected. |

Things have gotten even worse, and there is a lot of concern that this package isn't going to be nearly enough. Additionally, it's taking them a while to implement the plan. Every single day, the financial system bleeds more.
The other reason is that investors are now focusing on the fundamental decline of the world economy. It looks like unemployment is going to rise a lot and that corporate profits are not going to grow at all. The focus has been on financial problems but increasingly the focus is on the broader problems of the whole economy.
As an aside, I would anticipate a small bounce in stock prices in the next few days. We've fallen a long way very fast. |

1) 700B is barely enough to buy ALL the CDOs (Colateral Debt Obligation) held by the banks.
2) Investors and Banks have their own accountants and analysts who are very smart and they will tell you that these CDOs the Fed are about to buy are possibly WORTH NOTHING or WORTH VERY LITTLE. Remember - these CDOs the fed is about to buy are the stinky, smelly JUNK RATINGS - Not triple A's, Triple B's Ratings.
3) 700B is to be used to ONLY buy these CDOs which are the most toxic assets these banks have......but how about other toxic assets which are ALSO deteriorating like CLOs, Alt-A's, Commercial Mortgages etc. ? Even if these banks manages to unload their CDOs, they are still losing money on other assets.
4) Since all of their assets deteriorating these banks are still insolvent (their debts are more than their assets) - because of their highly leveraged positions.
5) Alot of foreign investors are moving their money out of the US Stock market.
6) Before you could see a rally (at least a temporary one) most long positions must either hit a cut-loss or margin calls first.

I'm gonna tell you something. This thread has more intelligent people than the top 7 in the Treasury Dept. Every answer (the first 7) was fantastic and dead on!
Too bad this group isn't running the government because I think it could actually fix it! |

the masses can smell a bloodbath and frenzy follows, it takes a long time for that smell to dissipate and calm the masses. Only for so long do the little people allow the big boys to play with their money without reining them in and putting a halt to their antics. Numbers on pages are not the same as cash in the pocket although they might mean the same. Most who handle big numbers forget how to manage real dollars. But many of them might need to learn and quickly. The Dow is still falling as are other markets, it is one thing for the small investor to be scared quite another situation when the big guys run too -- be wary as this depression might hit harder than they predict after all most of them didn't predict this otherwise they would have been more careful. |
