    IFN is at $45.17. Low for the day at $43.50, and high at $45.25. Was the fact it's the type of stock you have a lot of fun with a factor in your investment choice?

    Although one could say when the market got hit, DRL also got hit especially noting the high beta, nevertheless, it did come as a surprise to me, and I believe it only happened because the shorts took advantage of the down market. You wouldn't buy DRL today--I would. We will see what will...

    SEC specialist investigations moving to U.S. options exchanges

    Does anyone know what % of IB trades are routed to PHIL, and what % of trades they receive pmt for order flow? Does this all mean the exchange is supporting "good deals" for the market maker and broker (pmt for order flow) at the expense of the customer? Conspiracy between the exchange and MM??
