    Dan Zanger shorting Goldman Sachs in a big way...

    Goldman earnings blow away the street, and the stock is unchanged. Watch this one carefully folks, could be a classic "Buy the rumour, sell the news" trade to the downside. If Goldman closes red today, it could puke 10-15 points in a jiffy.

    Deficit spending. Get yourself in line at the public spending trough, before all the other hogs.

    Bank of England cuts key interest rate by a greater-than-forecast 150 basis points

    You might wanna reread that fella - 3% vs 1%. Now you gonna tell me how the BoE is "dovish" when their rates are 200% higher than the Fed? You're messin up by comparing present data to past data, rather than to present conditions. You'll lose your ass in the market with that kind of...

    Kudos to MMs

    Learn to spell, buddy. This is very bad for: i) the S&P ii) stocks iii) S&P futures Not "SIFs". We got enough acronyms as it is, don't create another ugly one that no one uses anyway.

    How much did SAC lose on Volkswagen?

    Don't you think he might have hedged with some out of the money calls? Personally I never have on a short with some deep OTM calls in case of exactly this kind of scenario. Especially when a cash-rich corporate player in the same sector has already declared a 20%+ ownership position. If Cohen...

    How much did SAC lose on Volkswagen?

    Doesn't that kinda blow your whole conspiracy-theory spiel outta the water, buddy? Let's face it - you can't short a great company to cheap prices, let alone into bankruptcy. The only stocks that can get raped by shorts are already down shit creek without a paddle - the Lehmans, Fannie Maes...

    Protecting Assets From a Divorce

    Never get married to a losing trade. Divorce = stop loss. GTFO man!

    Protecting Assets From a Divorce

    $3700 a month = $44,400 a year. With government bond yields below 4%, that works out at a net present value of about $1.2 million. That's one expensive baby. Just think how many gorgeous hookers he could be fucking for the same price or less. Yet another sucker paying the "male stupidity tax".

    Protecting Assets From a Divorce

    Bad idea - you've just given her a $1 million incentive to i) stay 3 years and a day ii) get pregnant on the sly. Simple solution - don't get married. If she whines, tell her to shut up. If she keeps whining, give her the boot and find another girl. If you're banking coin then women are easy...

    Everybody complaining about "socialism"

    Let me ask you then. If I stayed back home in Texas, and didn't use any government roads, never called the police, and decided to make my own arrangements regarding protection against a fire, then you think I shouldn't be paying any US taxes? Well in that case we got little to disagree about...

    Everybody complaining about "socialism"

    Boy you sound pretty wet behind the ears and you sure got a lot to learn. Any true blue capitalist would not fill out a form to the goddam IRS, they would emigrate to a tax haven and live it up in style, paying no income tax, no capital gains tax, and for sure no social security. Just some...
