    I would again like to respectfully disagree with you. 1. I am a trader, and probably an active one. Probably whipping your rats' ass on most days. 2. If you say Marxist, than probably an aristocratic Marxist, in which case extreme capitalism = communism. 3. There is a bridge for sale, I...

    Agreed in part, but I would say stay. I would just fine whoever is caught rubber-necking. This is because, as jimrockford so gracefully glided by, the argument of maintenance/sustenance. So your not painting every specialist with the same brush. The I 95, speeding BMWs analogy with Elliott...

    Yeap, self insults again, that's the losers corner. The reason is the strangle. An e.g. is the e-brokers. They are now charging something like 99cents for a trade, which is going to lead to melt-down. The reason is that it always does (GM debacle would be analogous). So we have bankruptcies...

    I would like to respectfully disagree. There is no suppression, as there are other systems in play and running successfully (Nasdaq, AMEX, etc). Specialist does not reduce choice for everybody, because of the other successful systems available for trading. Companies can seek to list at...

    A greater majority of NYX shares got traded on the Nasdaq. And the share price went up, with further secondary, tertiary offerings in place. According to your premise, since more shares (2/3) got traded on the Nasdaq, why did their share price rise, with no correction, just straight up. which...

    Brazil is about 90% independent of oil imports, because of its ethanol flex fuel tech. In a few years from now it will be 100% independent. This may also be a reality for the US. It took 30yrs for Brazil to get to this %, however, I surmise that it will take the US about 1yr. Iran as a result...

    How can this ("Government laws and rules" statement) be true when 60% of NYX traded shares at IPO, traded on the Nasdaq.

    Need a vote to see how many unsuccessful traders are happy. Or how many less well offs are unhappy. Or if indebtedness is not related to happiness. All I have experienced suggests that less well off people are not happy. This is not to be confused with kindness, love and helpfulness. Just...

    Most Iranian oil goes to Asia. US mainly gets sweet crude from Nigeria and Venezuela. Nymex oil is priced as sweet crude. May be we get a spike, like last hurricane season. But the US is not likely to underestimate any more hurricanes. Also that will be more emotional rather than for...

    And while you are in your rusty old T34 think tank, could you factor in the non-profit, and, for-profit change.

    Anyone remember the "evil empire" USSR. No missiles fired there, the system just went bankrupt. Suppose Iran is taking a leaf out of the USSR economics book. No point doing anything to Iran, if the people just want to be a bunch of Lemmings, on drugs and prostitution. Iraq needs to self...

    Yeah, take the frustration of your trading losses out on self insults. The usual ploy of the loser.

    So why do companies want their shares to be traded on the NYSE under such a system as you have described? There are dual listed companies, and so why the dual listing. What about the ADRs of foreign companies. You would be campaigning even harder against the LSE where you get milked out of...

    There is nothing stopping the companies from registering on the Nasdaq alone, such as Google. Why now it has to be included on the S&P500, after being the 21st biggest by market cap.
