Two days ago on CNBC a former exec was on the show discussing his new bank venture (trivial). At the end they asked if he still owned the stock and he said of course. Something is there especially with all the money they are storing. Ride the rough waves back up to the top.

Five reasons to buy Lehman Brothers LEH...

1. A drop from 75 to 22.85 like all financials.
2. 4ht quarter "loss" on track.
3. Great option play(s)
4. Heavy day trading in millions plus
5. Insider selling stopped back in January

NEGATIVE...
1. Only pays 3% dividend ( much better paying stocks GE)
2. Insiders still not buying back.

with the rumors going around about hedge funds fear of counterparty risk with LEH (the same thing that brought down BSC) I dont think this name is worth the risk

sold to you, sold to you. I wouldnt go near this thing with a 10 foot poll. Unless you are only interested in trading it intra day or possibly swing any thing other than that is crazy IMHO

In the last couple weeks there have been some reports that LEH may be looking to go private in order to keep speculators from driving down the price, I wonder at what price that would happen
