    How is the SEC 'Experiment' Working??

    Owen Lamont is a shill. So, with this logic, anyone who comes public who doesn't meet Chanos' approval should be whipped. Gee. Wonder why we're losing listings.

    How is the SEC 'Experiment' Working??

    This argument would make a modicum of sense, if they weren't breaking the law to start with. 'Changing the Rules' here means, obeying the 34 Act. This is so bizarre, you have to step back and realize what has happened. They have made the unseemly de riguer. Look at this from an economic...

    How is the SEC 'Experiment' Working??

    And that's because the 'locates ' you're getting aren't real. We know that they lend stock out over and over and over. That's why the FBI is on Stock Loan, where Wall St. makes about 20% of their profits. At least they got that going for them. You realize, of course, we've never discussed...

    How is the SEC 'Experiment' Working??

    I think we can assume that since a rule restricting only 'naked short selling' reduced the shorting by 90 %, that most of the shorting in these issues was illegal. that, and the fact some of this stuff has gone up 50%. AUSTIN, TX, Jul 23, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) ----According to...

    ULTIMATE HYPOCRISY: You can't 'naked short' certain equities, but 'Market Makers' can

    Patrick Byrne always leaves a nugget. In the beginning of this mess, One of the richest men in the world, and his father Jack, a billionaire thru Geico and Fireman's Fund turnaround, told him, 'it's too big. Don't go there.' I was infuriated these people would say such a thing. I just...

    Great Article on Short Selling - Protecting Giants from Slingshots

    Take the reported short interest, multiply times five. You'll probably be in the ballpark. Odd as it may seem, some people don't like to be fucked over. As the man said, 'not to be arrogant. I knew I was always right. Ihad the data. ' And he does. It just took three years for...

    just think of this. If the members of the NYSE are so frightened of 19 financials, what would happen if they took the same measures on the other 590 stocks on SHO? That doesn't take into account the hundreds of stocks 'grandfathered' in fails. Sedona Corporation was told over four years...

    Naked short selling - I thought it was already illegal

    deepcapture.com For the CliffNote version......... The SEC is bought off. Top officials routinely leave their GS12's for $500,000 jobs at the best law firms, who routinely represent high level Wall Streeters who have recently been exonerated from Sec actions by those very same job...

    ULTIMATE HYPOCRISY: You can't 'naked short' certain equities, but 'Market Makers' can

    Financials up huge today. Underwriting picking up, is it??? Auction rate securities on the rebound? Maybe IPO's coming? Good to see the industry turn around. Eight guys buggerin' each other in the ass, and the SEC is passing out rubbers.

    But don't you understand? These fine folks are protecting an unsuspecting public from pump and dump fraud. How do we know if the CEO is a crook? We haven't even gone through his trash yet. And the employees we planted at your company haven't finished their research. Just who are you...

    ULTIMATE HYPOCRISY: You can't 'naked short' certain equities, but 'Market Makers' can

    You know, I've run into a lot of guys like you at a lot of big firms over the last eight years or so. "we're too big to fail' or "fuck you. get a lawyer." About now, when they speak to me, they hang they're heads. They're scared shitless. Oh well. Sun don't shine on the same dogs ass...

    Who Does Obama Think he Is?

    What is so odd about Bush is, he just doesn't defend himself. Tommy Franks asked him to do that, and he did it. But he never brought that up again, and took a load of crap for it. I do think history will treat Bush rather well. Long after the naked shorters finish off the NYT, historians...

    First of all, thank you for some intelligent discussion. May I address several posts, and at the end, I’ll stimulate you (not that way) and make you think some more. a very small albeit powerful percentage of this breed is causing all the mischief AGREED. AND EVERYONE KNOWS WHO THEY ARE...

    Then what you need to do is shut down your hedgefund buddies. You know, the guys who, when Overstock is down 10, buy 3000 puts. Because they are going to bring the heat of the world down upon you, just like they did to us and everybody else. I understand what you do, and the only way to stop...
