OP, what do you mean your split order didnt get filled because the split moved to 5.625? If you put in a bid for 5.60, the NBBO would be 5.60 / 5.70 No idea what the hell you're talking about.

They announced the tender offer today, it finishes up on Aug 20. Seeing how it's typically institutional investors that hold preferred shares, there should be very few shares that don't get tendered (definitely not a 1/3 of holders are going to forfeit their investment). Any institutional...

the CL:XB crack is just over $2 right now. The CL:XB:HO 321 is ~ $10 Which means they're not making any money refining right now.

It was a press release.

Actually, Barclays did participate for 300MM. It's BSC, Bear Stearns that didn't participate.

Now.. if they just turn a profit this next quarter :D

AMP spun off of AXP. That's the only relationship those 2 have. AMP provides financial advising. AXP provides credit cards.

All the big names reported such crappy earnings.. the XLF's down big AH too

If my only bank account was with WM I'd either move it or open a new account elsewhere. Yes, I'd have FDIC insurance. Losing my money isn't what I'm worried about. I'm more worried about having my finances disrupted because my bank shuts down 3 days before my credit card bill is due.

Oh the stupidity of some people..

Your trades are approved by someone you never see or talk to. You enter your trade request (and they could give a damn what your rationale is) into this form. The form basically has a few bits of info: Security ID # of units you want to transact Direction That's it. You could pull...

I think that the new short selling rules are unnecessarily burdensome. Instead, the rule should be (and for every stock). If you fail to deliver, you're forced to cover immediately and have a penalty on top of it (If you profited off the trade, the penalty is at minimum your profits)...

I already get ~ 100K total comp, but it just doesn't cut it. The problem is, I'm classified as IT. Which means I get paid on an IT scale, which groups me w/ people developing back end systems, PnL systems, etc. Some of the traders (who are classified as traders) still develop their own...

First off, trading for myself is not an option. I have to have every single personal trade I do approved by legal and compliance in advance. Second, last time I checked, traders' pay is substantially > IT's pay.

Isn't Japan still deflationary -- or at the minimum, holding flat. That means their 1/2 point target rate is > inflation.

Has anyone done this? My current situation is I'm a front-office software developer at an investment bank (which means I develop trading tools for the traders). Obviously, I'd like to move into a role like being a financial analyst, or a trader. I'm starting the CFA program as well (I...

(If you don't see anything, it's cuz you gotta be logged into facebook to see pics linked there. But damn are they hideous!

LoL, that website is stupid in so many ways. Just from my personal experience, in most of the US, yes, I'd be 'rich'. But I live in Manhattan, and just barely make ends meet. (My income is in like the top 10% in the US, but in the bottom 25% in my zip code, go figure).

Well bunds, obviously I had multiple offers and I took the one that fit me best (in terms of pay, commute, and what I'd actually be doing at work). I been looking for the info for the past few weeks, but can't seem to find a good resource. And obviously, when the end of the year rolls around...

Where can I see the results of this survey?
