    IF Hillary wins she will further destroy America with "Diversity"

    But then they would band together, work hard, and build a modern society. After which the current residents of Somalia would claim they were excluded and taken advantage of by the white devils. The white devils then begin to feel guilt at their hard won success, which of course starts the cycle...

    ICE exchange fees working: NYSE-owner ICE’s profit jumps 12.4% on higher data revenue

    I think their data business is a lot more than just the fee they overcharge for the exchange. From the linked article: "The business compiles, analyses and distributes data across non-exchange traded markets." It is also interesting how the transaction and clearing fell 6.5%.

    One In 14 Americans Has Lost A Friend Over This Presidential Election

    It is sad that people become so vested in the beliefs of one side or the other that they would turn away from someone otherwise considered a friend. Especially considering that our political structure thrives on the strife that it creates.

    #BLM Social Experiment

    American blacks are the most racist people on the planet. They are programmed from birth that skin color is a persons most important characteristic. When you truly believe that your skin color defines you, everything that happens in your life is because of skin color.

    Wells Fargo fined $185M for dubious account openings

    Watch the video of Warren raking Stumpf over the coals. Sadly, Stump is just sitting there drumming his fingers thinking about his next round of golf. He knows the money he paid to the other senators will make it right for him. OMG, I can't believe that I am cheering on this woman. If she had...

    ES day trading journal - my final attempt

    Sorry to hear that you will no longer update this thread. But I will leave this in case you come back to read. No because I want to be condescending or to kick a man when he is down, but because I (and I am betting most of the guys posting in this thread) have been there. Just look at Friday vs...

    ES day trading journal - my final attempt

    Taking 17 trades in a day is a lot if activity. I won't presume to tell you what you should be doing, but I will say that the popular view of a trader making snap decisions in a frantic environment is fictional at best. Every time a trader takes on risk it should be as a result of careful...

    Wells Fargo fined $185M for dubious account openings

    He later said through a spokeswoman that when the bank falls short “I feel accountable and our leadership team feels accountable—and we want all our stakeholders to know that.” Yeah sure, just so long as as nobody tries to actually hold him accoutable. When that kind of talk starts its time to...

    Something is not right with Hilary

    That is just the same old posturing. When these same democrats(?) turn back to supporting Clinton a few days from now, they will exclaim "WOW! She really is healthy and everything is fine! I now realize that I was wrong to question her. See, you really shouldn't doubt her! Be sure to vote!" The...

    Interactive Brokers Implements Price Caps

    Anyone ordering a well-done steak needs to be protected from themselves. :p The IB thing just sounds like price banding at the CME. Is it something else? Something new? I bet that zerohedge made it sound like a nefarious trick on us poor retail guys (I didn't click their link).

    Hillary passes out at 9/11 memorial

    LOL. Now I am reading that her entire staff has been battling pneumonia. Anytime people don't believe your lies, just double down with a more outlandish lie. It always worked for Bill.

    Hillary passes out at 9/11 memorial

    No, no....that was the thumb drive with all the info from her last security briefing. Dropping it on a public street is ok though, she secured it with the password PASSWORD. The all caps will foil even the most technically savvy hacker. It is really a non-issue.

    Even ISIS bans the burqa

    http://www.indiatimes.com/news/world/isis-bans-burqa-after-woman-in-veil-shoots-dead-two-jihadis-with-hidden-pistol-261261.html I can't believe that even ISIS will not allow these poor women to practice their faith by covering themselves in a proper burqa. The peaceful religious piety of these...

    Why has Star Trek done lackluster at the box office?

    For me, the last film (Into Darkness) pretty much burnt me on the reboot. I thought the first new film was ok. Change things up and tell a different story. But what the hell were they thinking trying to remake Wrath of Khan? Yeah making Sulu gay is a boneheaded kotow to SJW's everywhere but...
