    Mini-documentary on Steve Cohen

    It was a well known fact that SAC traded on inside information. I bet maritoma wasn’t the only POS psychopath at that firm on the longshort platform.

    Amazon Gives Incoming CEO Andy Jassy Stock Awards Worth More Than $200 Million

    yes there is loyalty for the cloud. It’s not trivial to move from one cloud service to another. You have to rewrite your software. You will do it for the right price but there is a stickiness to the revenues. Further everyone’s cloud usage is going up. Every year you either have more data stored...

    Find the edge :)

    It took me about 5 minutes staring at my iPhone while working on a puzzle with my 4yo. However a pit trader would see an opportunity in a few seconds. It’s what they train themselves to do: to observe the price and sense where the bid/ask has a kink (defined by a skewed mid price).

    Amazon Gives Incoming CEO Andy Jassy Stock Awards Worth More Than $200 Million

    i guarantee you there are many in those ranks who have earned 10s of millions and more. Prior to the announcement of him becoming CEO, had you ever heard of this guy? Yet he paid 300mm.

    Amazon Gives Incoming CEO Andy Jassy Stock Awards Worth More Than $200 Million

    i disagree. He through his leadership has created trillions in wealth for Amazon. If he was wrong the efforts of thousands of people would be squandered and Amazon shareholders wouldn’t have reaped a trillion dollars worth of value.

    Find the edge :)

    while he created a massively expected value positive trade, it’s not an arbitrage as he can lose money. If he didn’t delta hedge it, it would have been an arb.

    Find the edge :)

    You buy the straddle for 4.15 You buy the 65 call, sell the 65 put for a forward price of 54.95. you sell the 55 call 2x at 2.15 for a forward price of 55.15 with the straddle. that’s an arb of 20 cents I think.

    Day Trading to Multimillionairedom

    This is a straw man argument. I’m not comparing you to the frauds. But there is a big difference between a guy who claims to be earning 1mm/day, a guy who earns a decent living, and someone who is trading 40 shares. I don’t see the point if you aren’t willing to eat your own dog food. what are...
