You must be approved to trade margin because the loss on the short is infinite. Your broker and the firm have to believe you can make good on a margin call, if it moves hard against you. YOu might not use all your equity to take the position but a bad move can blow through your remaining...

Bankruptcy does not mean the end of the company. Its just a clearing of debt and the loss of share value to current stockholders. New stock and bonds will be issued to the new suckers as the comany exits bankruptcy. See Kmart.

I definitely think exercise helps. Its helps me unwind the pent up anger or joy from the trading day and then I can fall asleep much easier at night. I sprained my ankle this summer and couldn't hit the gym for a while. I was having all sorts of trouble sleeping. So I started reading...

you hit the bid and get the offer as your official fill, but you still have to pay that spread back to essex. Hit .35 get filled at .39. pay the extra .04 difference on your sheets. actually the ticket charge assumed a .01 difference so you only would pay an additional .03 cents in that above...

You do hit the bid and get filled at the offer for purposes of reporting (Essex is giving you the stock on the legal uptick). However on top of the outrageous ticket charge, you have to also pay the spread between the bid and offer back to Essex.

Lets understand, that should GM ever file bankruptcy there would probably be a .001% chance of a liquidation. It would be a reorganization. The Senior and preferred get f'ed with zilch. Bondholders would settle for some penny on the dollar type scenario, and some classes of bondholders would...

How many people have devoted countless hours on figuring out how and when to short goog? seriously. Supply and Demand. Instead of waiting and waiting and waiting you should have gone long and just made some money. Its funny, people are more concerned with being able to post here...

I know one of the groups in Southfield is under Generic. I used to work for Generic in nyc and contacted them before, the office manager seemed nice enough. I don't know about another group. Whatever happened to Ruben's firm out there on w.14 mile. He had the original prop shop in...

Theres a reason it averages 35mm shares a day. I would be bored to death playing that penny game though.

Please don't think ratings success and poor taste don't go hand in hand in. ie Jerry Springer.

I can't believe anyone thinks Liz is hot, not to mention anyone who voted for Lesbie Laroche should have to serve a one week ban from posting. Yes the B was on purpose. Erin Burnett on Bloomberg is a hottie.

They'll trade on the pinks sheets. old school style. I wonder if i still have LOCH? should have sold at 5.
