How the Credit Disaster Is Now Spreading, Next Dominos to Fall
Stock-Markets / Credit Crisis 2008 Sep 08, 2008 - 02:04 AM GMT
Martin D. Weiss writes: We are busy preparing for Hurricane Ike. Everyone in Florida knows what to do. And hopefully, it will pass us by.
But the financial pandemic that's spreading to the entire economy is another matter entirely.
It's the contagion now spreading beyond banks to many of America's largest and most widely held companies — retail firms, tech companies, industrial giants and more. Do you own their shares? I hope not.
Look. More than three years ago, we listed 25 real estate companies, construction firms and lenders that were about to get creamed, and told you to "avoid them like the plague."
If you heeded that warning and dumped those stocks, you escaped a personal financial catastrophe as they crashed 92%, 93%, 95%, 99% even as much as 100%.
Now we have a new list. It's based on hard data showing that, to survive, thousands of banks, thrifts and other lenders are giving borrowers the cold shoulder, rejecting their applications for loans. As a result, major companies that absolutely require an active credit market to finance consumer purchases are the next dominos to fall.
Their stocks — many of the most widely-owned household names in the nation — are about to be reduced to ruins. If you own them, either directly or through a mutual fund or pension plan, you must take protective action now.
Our primary mission is to do everything in our power to alert you to these new dangers and help you keep your money safe. So at 2:00 PM Eastern Time on Monday, September 15, Mike and I will do just that — in a complimentary crisis briefing entitled ...
