Stockpickr Staff	"It is almost as if we never expect anything to spring back ever. But things will rebound -- even the impossible things. Consider Radian (RDN) and MBIA (MBI). Here's two with at least a dozen obituaries -- I think I attended the funerals, definitely the wakes. But now they are flying high, getting numbers bumped, springing back to life. Things can spring back to life, even things that aren't supposed to." <a href="http://jimcramer.rmblogs.thestreet.com/entry.aspx?q=b5dc7bfe-c80d-424e-9998-9c7600c80c61" target="_blank">"Don't Fear September," Aug. 31, 2009</a>	Love	September 01, 2009

barrons3	Companies like MBIA [MBI], Ambac [ABK], and PMI Group [PMI] operate in the same financial insurance business that AIG’s struggling with.	Love	September 18, 2008

barrons2	9. MBIA (MBI): The biggest puzzle, along with PMI (PMI). How did this company get off the hook for its Merrill (MER) obligations? Houdini stock. Undeserving rally, though, because there's no real case for earnings acceleration -- or earnings, for that matter.	Love	August 28, 2008

barrons2	Crazy, but it seems to me that the moves in stocks like Ambac Financial (ABK) and PMI (PMI) or in MGIC (MTG) and MBIA (MBI) may actually be driven by all the stock-picking contest being played right now. That's right, the actual games at CNBC and TheStreet.com.	Love	July 10, 2008
barrons2	12. The Gang of Four -- PMI (PMI), MGIC (MTG), MBIA (MBI) and Ambac (ABK): We all know what's happening here -- their insurance might be busted. So many outfits are still valuing their portfolios presuming some insurance protection that when the inevitable happens, we will get a severe hit to everyone's book.	Love	July 02, 2008
barrons2	Najarian said, however, that his fund is still short MBIA (MBI), and that viewers should look for more downside in Washington Mutual (WM) and Wachovia (WB).	Love	June 11, 2008

barrons2	On the other hand, "I'm not that high on MBIA (MBI). I don't feel that good about MGIC (MTG). He was also bearish on AIG (AIG) and expressed concern over legal problems at Allstate (ALL).	Love	April 24, 2008

jhalvosa	Does not deserve its ratings	Hate	March 01, 2008
barrons2	The stock market's 189-point surge last Monday largely stemmed from S&P's decision to maintain its top credit ratings on mortgage and bond insurers MBIA (MBI) and Ambac (ABK). The same day, MBIA suspended its quarterly common dividend. As reported in this space Jan. 14, MBIA slashed its payout 62%, to 13 cents a share from 34 cents, as part of a plan aimed at strengthening its capital to hold on to its crucial AAA rating. No dividends were paid at the 13-cent rate. MBIA said the payout elimination will save about $174 million a year. On Jan. 29, Ambac cut its quarterly to seven cents a share from 21 cents.

jroper525	This stock has been betten down but is a sleeper. It will come out of the Cramer "KILL BECAUSE I SAID SO" war with flying colors and rise again.	Love	February 09, 2008

Mern	Key mortgage insurer	Love	January 22, 2008
barrons2	MBIA's shares were savaged anew last week, and now its stock looks cheap. It trades for about 8, well below a conservative liquidation value above $30 a share.	Love	January 19, 2008
barrons2	In the mortgage insurance space, Cramer says he's no longer a seller of MGIC Investment (MTG) and MBIA (MBI) but would not necessarily be a buyer at these levels, either.	Love	January 17, 2008
