    Madoff story smells funny...

    I really doubt that his family didn't know. I think hes taking the fall, since he is old, whats 20 years in jail he will probably die before that. He lived his life, and is 70. He's taking the fall, probably a lot of money disappeared into his familys holdings.

    Apple: A Major Short 11-28-2008

    I see, I have a friend who picks stocks to go long or short. He thinks hes a genius, but he never invests in them. When hes wrong he's like oh well, when he's right I can't shut him up. I can't stand people like that, who spread there ideas, but lack the courage to back them up with cash.

    Apple: A Major Short 11-28-2008

    Everything has been hit in this market, hell even Berkshire Hathaway. There maybe a minor slowdown in apples sales, but people buy apple products because there cool. They don't feel the same about dell or the others. Apple will slow down when it gets to big, but people getting tired from...

    Meredith Whitney: WFC is the single worst stock in the financial sector

    Yeah she got a good call with recent financial mess, but I think she is starting to believe that she is perfect and all knowing. I really doubt Buffet would keep buying wfc stock if he saw risks. I think she wants to stay in the limelight, and making more predictions will help. On another...

    ok, so what FX brokers DON'T suck

    I kept my IB account for equities, because they are the best at that. I pulled my fx trading due to fx trader not being a great program, after coming from a more streamlined fx program. I also find margins a bit high, since IB will liquidate either way. I may look into Ninja trader, is it's...

    ok, so what FX brokers DON'T suck

    I would be hesitant with IB, margin's are at 2.5% which are the highest in the industry. Also you will do better with a pure forex broker, IB's FX trader doesn't work to well with tws, and isn't really quick in placing orders.

    AIG are criminals. When will they be arrested?

    I think they should arrest the people sold all those cds at AIG. They are crazy, they took the premiums that they received and invested them into subprime/mortgage related securities. I sometimes wonder if this is Spitzers fault, supposedly Greenberg was careful with risk, and his successors...

    Trying to let winners run for 4 YEARS, so depressed

    I agree with you on that one, that is not a strategy to make money. Might as well just flip a coin.

    Trying to let winners run for 4 YEARS, so depressed
