This has happened before. There is not one period in US history where it did not not utilize cheap immigrant slave labor. Blacks, Ellis Island, european child labor, Mexicans, Haitians. The peak year of European immigration was in 1907, when 1,285,349 persons entered the country. By 1910...

The USA is a shithole however you paint it.

those potato farmers took all the cop jobs.

So in other words, large pockets within the US is a 3rd world country.

The only whites who will do this sort of job, are the Irish. Come on, what company is gonna hire an ex GM union worker at $40/hour to scrub ass and flip whoppers?

how many americans would even clean septic pipes at $5/hour?

The white man should be flipping burgers.

regulation is pointless, traders always find a way.

Owning a home is as smart as getting married.

bullshit. there is large short interest. there is no such thing as rotation anymore.. it's gunning for the weak open interest.

Unfortunately, many prop discretionary traders are "lumped into" the HFT category, so if you have regulation there, u will have regulation here. My guess is since GS is king of HFT, there won't be much regulation happening. Just some minor tweaks to keep the interest groups satisfied.

This is a moot point. With all the recent issues of defining a market maker (Shumer, HFT, GS), which is how these firms get JBO leverage, seems regulators finally trying to differentiate what a retail trader and a market maker really is. In any event, these firms discussed in the thread use...

because GS is a bank and a bank should not be gambling billions and exposing economy to systemic risks ie several rogue traders taking bad bets and destroying the entire banking system. Whatever, makes no difference. GS still has their market making business which is trade & make money first...

Market is just 1 big poker table.

technical analysis is for suckers.

I'm not sure if you selectively read what Don writes, but his firm is a prop firm now that he backs traders in 50% split accounts 100% firm risk alongside the trader capital accounts. I have no affiliation with Bright, but I think you are being a bit unfair with what he's explained. If a firm...

Listen people, you're all climbing up the wrong tree here. They're closing down retail shops who pretend to be prop like the people who run co's here. If a prop takes 100% of the risk, they could pay out 1000% of the profit if they wanted to. You're right Maverick, the 20 year loophole is over.

That's what Goldman argued too.

What? colleges became businesses? What?

don't even bother. most colo servers are even too slow compared to some of the nano second programs out there.
