what about the luby's incident in texas? the guy went in and shot up dozens up people at a cafeteria that is often frequented by cops. no armed citizens or cops managed to stop him. if guns are so great at deterring crime, why does houston, a major city with plenty of gun owners, have a...

up through february, NYSE volume was down for sure. i dont know how they did in march. that is why NYX tanked last month after they missed earnings and didnt give a good outlook for the future.

i have never heard liberals or anyone say they want MORE voting fraud. i have heard neocons on TV saying they think it is okay to pollute all they want. i debate with guys in my gym that vote republican and think only liberal pussies should care about a clean environment and that the earth can...

none of us can truly prove or disprove global warming. we all know that the weather is getting crazier and warmer over the years. but what makes absolutely no sense to me is that some people want MORE air pollution. if global warming is a total lie, it doesnt mean we should be able to...

has volume really gone up on NYSE executions? i thought the increase was on INET and there was a decrease on NYSE. getting filled on NYSE is terrible compared to INET.

and then they made nice at the end in like the blink of an eye. anyone else find that weird? it made me feel like the whole thing was scripted.

i worked in mortgage banking several years ago and saw what countrywide's portfolio was at that time. alt-a loans were NOT 45% of their portfolio or anywhere near it. why dont you show your proof that Alt-A loans make up 45% of all mortgages in 2005/2006? please prove me wrong. or maybe u are...

i have .35 rates at a prop shop and after fees and other non-commish charges it comes out to about .5 cent a share. so i would say .35 at a prop shop is equal to .5 cent all in rate.

i strongly doubt that Alt-A loans made up 40-45% of all mortgages. even if they did, the gross dollar amount would represent a much smaller percentage because lenders arent going to lend out huge mortgages to weak borrowers. i know for a fact that countrywide's portfolio is mostly...

socialist = more taxes = higher net prices. plus many european countries have higher standards of living than the usa so cost of living is higher.

the majority of mortgages are not subprime or Alt-A. most are credit worthy and fully backed by Fannie or Freddie. most subprime loans are held by the originator or speculative investors. sure they run a higher risk of default but they also charge higher mortgage rates. plus, some subprime or...

dont be mad that i am educated and you are ignorant. but hey, some people are happy with learning about the world from watching FOX news rather than from traveling abroad. I never said we INVENTED slavery. learn to read. how can you even compare the scale of slave trade that went on in the USA...

does this mean we aren't BFF's with saudi arabia anymore?

is it worth the $50-$60? yeah i guess so. like others said, hybrid made it alot less useful but i would still rather have it than to not. probably the main thing i use it for is to get an idea of how thin a stock is trading. alot of size on the book is fake but you can still get an idea if...

we exterminated the native americans. we institutionalized slavery of africans. we pardoned nazi and japanese war criminals responsible for the deaths of hundreds, if not thousands, if they agreed to work for us after WW2. we empowered blood thirsty dictators who massacred their people in south...

very similar indeed. and while the spy plane incident was being played out between the chinese and us govt, the americans in chinese custody were well fed, housed in officer quarters and just passing time until the two sides could meet somewhere near the middle. meanwhile, the american media...

wow. just wow. that was amazing. this is a must see! i need to forward this link asap.

did anyone else's NY Openbook go down for a while after the 10:30AM oil number?

better than being on death row for 10-15 years and slowly waiting to be executed and eating up tax dollars.

my guess is that they cut some ppl working on the news desk. margins have gone down at most prop shops after hybrid.
