There is a good reason why women put up with men - we are engineered to propagate. So women may think they have free will to up and leave, but the truth is legacy wiring alters your internal utility curve once in a relationship so that your future kids can enjoy adult protection from wild...

It's like this. We had giant tidal waves roll in the last 3 weeks. For those surfers who have been around for a while, traded through 1998-9, 2000-2002, they are on their boards and having a time of their lives. All those times spent wading in the freezing water, all those times they got...

It's not clear to me why you are on this forum. Lets all try to add some value here and the world will be a fantastic place. You're trailing T-bill returns btw.

It's been a while since I looked at it, but I think basically there are two layers of protection for FCM customers. Your funds are segregated so if the firm goes down you are okay. The firm pays an insurance premium to an industry body that pools a fund which is to be used to make whole...

While others are content to lob silly one-liners, I'm glad someone here has the intelligence to realize what happens here should be of interest to anyone who has an account with an FCM. oh wait ..... a possible alternate hypothesis is that vast majority of posters *don't* have an account with...

They are leaking Federal Reserve announcements in chat rooms now??? gee .... maybe Santa Claus and the tooth fairy are real too. oh yes, mustn't forget the PPT ...

Sentinel managed short term funds for FCMs like Velocity. These proceedings, like when Refco imploded, is of vital interest to anyone who has money with an FCM. It sets the precedent.

I've got news for you - all the banks have left Wall St (except Deutche, they didn't get the memo). You'll find two big gyms, a BMW dealership, a Ciprianis, a Tiffanys and a Hermes store there. And lots of condos which used to be banks. No doubt you'll get a great sense of history walking...

I think we shall find the appropriate piece of wisdom in this exchange from "The Rock" (1996) : John Mason: Are you sure you're ready for this? Stanley Goodspeed: I'll do my best. John Mason: Your "best"! Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen.

but asia sold off hard AFTER the thursday pm rally. I don't see how that can be true if there was a leak.

That's right ... lets all join hands against The Man. No wonder socialist demogorge politicians never have any trouble recruiting support ...

Anyone with any common sense would see that is rubbish. Bonuses are paid out of revenues. Revenues are going to shrink from all those postponed issuances, all those postponed mergers, all those shrinking hedge fund accounts at the prime broker, all those blow ups on the prop desk. Unless...

If banks go under there will be a political shitstorm. And central banks, no matter what they say, are there to do the politician's bidding.

The trouble with all these calculations of what-number-must-I-reach-so-I-can-kick-back is that if you are a youngster, it is very sensitive to the assumptions for RoR and inflation. Move the needle a bit to the left or right and you get wildly different results if you have 70 years more to go (a...

I am in downtown Manhattan and would drop by if you guys do something
