Why don't they outsource the CEO jobs as well. I an sure Indians are just as good at back dating share options? Just think if they outsource everything, everyone in the US can retire while the indian and chinese do all the work.

The problem with "insider" information is knowing how the market will react to that information. I may know that a companies results will be worse than expected. So I short the stock. The news hits the market and guess what the stock go's up! Why because, blah blah blah the guidance blah blah...

The hypothesis of efficient markets is badly specified as its impossible to falsify. To my mind its utterly pointless.

I think you missed my point when I said big guys I meant institutions, I know plenty of traders like you describe. By the way I don't validate myself by looking at others.

I can't agree, the so called big boys can't trade worth a damn. Its not their money so they don't care. How many retail traders have been hurt in the sub-prime mess. None, everyone who was hurt were so called hedge funds and banks. Why do you think they bought that junk, because they knew...

They not trying to shore up the market, these moves are crazy either you had straddles before the moves or I don't believe anyone is making cash whether they are long or short. Personally I am surviving not down but not up.

It sure sucks to see a 350 pt plunge evaporate and then take a 200 plus smack the next day. My heart goes out too any short that got caught in that. My personnel feeling is this market has been very hard.

These multli factor models are a load of crud. IMHO

Yup tried to trade T, damn thing would not trade status cell was bright green they say its a connection problem. My point is then why does the status field go green.

That was good:D
