NEW YORK, Oct 19 (Reuters) - When BlackRock Inc (BLK.N) posts third-quarter earnings on Wednesday, shareholders will be looking for an indication that the world's largest money manager is more than a tired behemoth
BlackRock shares are are now down 24 percent for the year, compared with the 4 percent that the Dow Jones U.S. Asset Manager Index .DJUSAG has fallen in the same period.
Putbacks, bitches! This headline that has just flashed, can not be right. Otherwise it would mean the New York Fed (and Bill Gross) is preparing to sink Bank of America with hundreds of billions of par MBS putbacks. It would however explain why PIMCO has been gobbling up MBS on margin in the past month as we highlighted. We will bring you more as we see it, because this could be a groundbreaking development. Update: Blackrock joins too! The "soured mortgages" in question amount to $47 billion (to start).

what u will probably see first thing in the morning
is the biggest and fastest sell-off of BOA stock
in history.
Now let's add another increase in interest
from China and it will ripple Wall Street.
Let's call it a Black Wednesday.
Anybody holding money in the market
now is SOL. Look for the DOW to drop
at least 300-400 tomorrow or more.
The dominoes are beginning to fall.

Most definitely agree, Japan's just opened and the Nikkei is already down over -200 points. It's going to be a rough day.

Nice find. What gets me is there's so much speculative paper in the system that this is all just a game of musical chairs - it's all paper, and it's all worth nothing at the end of the day.
