About 8 years ago,i gave the retail broker route a try and hated it.But almost every firm does still cold call to try and get new business.Will brokerage profits suffer now because of this new rule?Is it time to short the brokers?

Interesting story...http://biz.yahoo.com/ms/030917/96572_1.html

Does anyone know if these huge firms get in long the day before they upgrade the stock or get short before the downgrade?Sounds like an easy way to makes loads of money,if not for the analyst's personal account,perhaps telling family members or friends who tell their friends who in turn give...

Are you allowed to short stocks in a traditional or Roth IRA,as well as trade options and futures?

When one withdraws funds from IRA's,401k's,and Keogh plans,is it taxed at ordinary income tax rates,all the way on up to the 35% tax rate?If so,what's the point of these vehicles if one can just buy some stocks and hold for the long term(over 1 year) and get a maximum of 15% long term capital...

How good of a strategy is it to buy on the open stocks that have been upgraded and short stocks that have been downgraded with the intention of getting out by the close?If anyone is involved in this strategy,please share how it is working out.Also,is it a good idea to hold longs overnight on...

You can buy at the ask or bid at any price below the ask and wait to get hit.You can sell at the bid or offer at any price above the bid and wait to get taken.

That still doesn't answer my question.How would the profits be taxed?
