Blood In The Streets

This week $13.5 billion flowed into the financials. Do these purchases of subprime distressed assets mark a bottom for bank stocks?

Whitney Tilson, The Value Investing Congress Chairman and manager of hedge fund T2 Partners joined the panel for this conversation. Following are excerpts from what was said.

Short Lehman Brothers (LEH), advised Tilson. I think they likely have a lot of exposure that Citigroup (C) and Merrill (MER) have, but they haven’t confessed it, yet.

Also, he suggested that MBIA (MBI) and Ambac Financial (ABK) might not survive the credit crunch.

In addition, Tilson also suggested Freddie Mac (FRE) could be a buy.

I prefer Fannie Mae (FNM) , Pete Najarian countered.

Ameriprise Financial (AMP) is a buy in my book, Guy Adami chimed in.
