OM!!! MS and GS exploding. Plunge Protection Team (PPT) will not be defeated.

Whether the reason is legitimate or not, I have seen spreads everywhere widen in spot forex. Also, the frequency of fucked up gap moves had been wayyyyy higher. Think about it. Let's say the market is thinner than ever which I believe is the case and EURUSD is rallying. If you can get...

I heard people say that they should nationalize WMT. I support this idea because there are many who could not survive without Wal Mart and they seem to do a good job. Wal Mart is paramount to our national security. I also heard the idea to ban passing in the NFL. I support this because it...

This thread is intended to share your ideas on what the US Government should do next.

I mentioned elsewhere: I think that there should be a ban on all selling, both long sales and short sales. Once you buy, you own it for life... A market with no shorts would see stocks open with $00.00 bid and crash in the first few minutes of trading after the tipping point, right? At...

Are there any firms located in Century City?

Long on resources, max short on street smarts...

Anyone trading this yet?

thx, it really could be any and everything as a source of distraction or trouble - and then one finds something in the market that may or may not have changed as the cause of lower performance. I think about this a lot when you look at the history of markets or hedge fund performance in '06 and...
