MQG - Macquarie Group

Here's a good summary of what happened yesterday :

http://www.news.com.au/business/story/0,27753,24253931-14334,00.html


Hi Julia, yes I panic buyed when I saw the price drop thinking I had spotted a bargain, then I got the news after the event as to why it dropped so I was nervous until I found out. Turns out the news isn't that scary, but something to keep an eye on. As we know, sometimes by the time we find out the news, the price has changed again, but its obviously safer to find out why there was a change before buying.

Aussiest, I'll check the oil thread.
 
Deadset,

I'm not sure whether there's anything recent in the oil thread, i just supposed due to the news about the cyclone. I guess the MQG has taught me to be extra cautious .

I understand what you mean about the news. On Mon and Tues, i could have sworn somebody knew something that i didn't know, due to the big sell-down, so they either had inside information, or were keeping their eye on the Macquarie satellite funds or businessess (or whatever they're called). :dunno:
 
Guys,

I have a job interview at Macquarie Bank next week. Should I take the job if I get through???!!!!

Looks like I am goingto get this job as I have the uncanny habit of picking up falling knives (my portfolio would be a testament of my above statement)....Will let you all know if I make it in the interview or not !!!!
 
Apparently they only employ the best employees, just ask them.
Working for the number 1 investment bank in Australia, that's got to be good.
 

Take the job if you get it. Macquarie bank is the "millionaires factory" after all, or is that the "thousandaire factory".
 
I can't help myself: take the job and come and tell us all the inside info :. No, seriously, good luck with the job. It will look great on your resume
 

Are you ready to work 50 hour plus week ..if yes then go for it may come out a millionaire ..may comes out disappointed and disgruntle but if the model comes crashing down may come out without a job
 
I can't believe that no one has posted in this thread today.... the thing jumped 15% today!!! hello
Does anyone know what is behind this? doesn't seem to be any major ann's. Maybe just people willing to hold long recognising value when they see it?

Cheers
 
I think more likely caught up in today's banking relief rally - fallout from the F&F move in the US.

A fallout from US banks usually doesn't mean a huge rally in bank stocks over here, especially MQG
Thats my observation anyway

Cheers

Edit: maybe you meant 'bailout'?
 

this is why i picked them for the september competition...theres plenty of upside in MQG i reckon....

ill post a chart soon but my internet signal that im 'borrowing' off my neighbour is quite slow atm and my charts are slow to update

Agree it shouldn't mean a rally here, but I think it did nevertheless.

A bad choice of the word "fallout" on my part. Meant to say " reaction to ".

 

Yippee !!!!!!!!! Only 34.62% of gains to go and I'm in the green on this one

The MQG Morgan Stanley Presentation in London was very timely in view of the positive financial news coming from the US.

Mac could double its profit forecast , then deliver and still see share price fall in this market.

It can't seem to de-couple from its VERY dismal distant cousins IMO
 

I'm sorry to rain on your party.

Its built on debt.

It pays its managers too much.

The other funds hate it due to its past success and will short it at a moments notice.

It has a way to fall yet I'm afraid.

gg
 
I agree with GG
But it's a perfect Dtrader type of stock, thing moves all over the place.
I get on and hopefully out in 2/3 days.
The thing spikes and falls, but it's averaging is moving south and will keep doing so for a longtime. great if you can make a few bucks out of in a short time, but don't go long or anything.
 
Interesting the article about MQG in the Australian this morning
Macquarie in the spotlight amid $5bn refinancing fears

Even more interesting, their answer:
 
So someone's been feeding The Australian journalist porkies.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could get her source and have a look at the real balance sheet to see what's really true.

MQG's been going up and down like a yo yo already in 10 minutes.
Buy, Buy, Buy, Sell, Sell, Sell, no wait, Buy, Buy, Buy
 
Where there is smoke there could be a fire, someone has some information some where, it may not be 100% accurate but if your model

build on cheap debt and leverage than the chance of having a bit of fire isn't that far from the truth.
a bit of caution doesnt hurt
 
I said to myself i would buy in at $34.00, but looking at it today, i will not touch this stock. Ever again, i don't think.

This might make their over-paid executives wake up.

Well the Big Kahuna (Alan Moss) is an early riser. He woke up back in May and swifty exited. Mind you, not before fleecing the company of another $100 million in the process.

Moss was last seen perusing waterfront property on island of Majorca.
