Required Viewing for United Auto Workers Union

This is a very serious matter. If the United Auto Workers Union continues to be stubborn like the Attractive Girls Union, I think we can all say goodbye to American cars.

WSO T-Shirt Slogan Contest!

WallStreetOasis.com — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 02:23:51 -0500

NOTE: PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR ENTRY BY REPLYING TO THIS POST

Fellow Primates,

Now that we have the new logo selected I figured we could have an entertaining T-Shirt Slogan Contest. The winner of course will receive his/her own t-shirt free of charge with the winning slogan. I don't really have any rules so the slogan can be about the current state of Wall Street, baboon analysts or anything else your creative minds can muster up.

We will also be making the top 5 ones available to you at the WSO Store (selling at cost since CafePress charges $8.99 for a basic t-shirts... and i'm not about to mark that up for fear of a riot).

NOTE: PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR ENTRY BY REPLYING TO THIS POST

A plan to save the world -- part two, or is it three?

WallStreetOasis.com — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 10:49:22 -0500

When Paulson came out today and stated that his earlier plan to save the western world was not working, he offered up a plan "C" (or is it "D") to relieve pressure on consumer credit, scrapping his earlier effort to buy the value mortgage assets.

No matter what happens or what the next plan is here, are the 3 reasons I believe stocks are headed lower.

* Number one: The trend in most all stocks is down. This trend is likely to persist and last longer than most people imagine.

* Number two: There is no plan. The government is floundering and does not have a plan that is going to work anytime soon.

* Number three: We have a lame-duck president, and nothing is going to happen of any consequence until President-elect Obama is sworn in.

Hey everyone, apologies, but our database got corrupted when we were upgrading some software...

Vote for WSOs New Logo

WallStreetOasis.com — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 02:59:16 -0500

Ok everybody - we have decided to change our current logo to try and get something a bit more professional. We are using a service called CrowdSpring.com where graphic designers all submit work to win an award of $400.

Click here to see all of the logos submitted so far:

http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/logo/logo_for_communi...

If you mouse over any of the logos in the gallery a # will show up in the bottom right hand corner. To zoom in on any just hold the mouse over the upper right hand part of the logo (or click on it).

Right now, my favorites are #53, #46/41 and #25. If you could rank these three and also any other 2 you like best from 1 through 5 that would be a huge help.

Thanks for the feedback,
Patrick

Bananas are Back

WallStreetOasis.com — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 23:21:59 -0500

We just received a new shipment of bananas into the WSO warehouse. For the last month or so we were depleted and could not issue bananas to new users (read: technical difficulties). We fired our inventory manager and I will be taking over the banana supply chain management to ensure we never go through a shortage like this again. I am pleased to report all new users will now be receiving banana points for WSO participation -- just like before.

Eat Up,
