    MIT research scientist pleads guilty to insider trading

    Creating a new account a few days prior to a large option purchase will definitely raise a red flag. On the other hand, a trader that regularly trades with consistent sizes, upon receiving an insider information, he should trade with the size similar to his 'usual' sizes. How do we get around...

    Rickards: ‘Bitcoin is a Ponzi Scheme’

    I currently only trade bitcoins and I have not actually bought or sold any goods or services using bitcoins. Actually, I don't really care if it is going to collapse or the governments around the world ban it. All I am doing now is making as much as I could while I can. However, I foresee that...

    Rickards: ‘Bitcoin is a Ponzi Scheme’

    I think it's closer to relate bitcoin to gold than to stocks. 1. They are limited in supply. 2. They are accepted as a mean of transaction. 3. Their prices fluctuate depending on the demand and supply (sentiment).

    Rickards: ‘Bitcoin is a Ponzi Scheme’

    Everything is about sentiment/perception. If a company is going bankrupt but the market has a good sentiment about it, the price will still appreciate as people keep buying it. Same goes to BTC, even if there's no value in it but the people perceive it to be as valuable as gold, then the...

    Rickards: ‘Bitcoin is a Ponzi Scheme’

    I don't own much. I trade them on a regular basis like how I trade the stocks and futures. So, I don't really care if it is appreciating or depreciating in value, I will just go long or short.

    A hedge fund started by a pioneering female investor has lost more than half its assets in two years

    Why things in the U.S. have to revolve around genders. Feminism, etc. Although gender plays some roles in the success of a certain endeavour, why do they emphasise only on females?

    JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon says bitcoin is a fraud that will eventually blow up

    If people start to accept bitcoin as the means of payment, then it will not fail, as long as the people still accept it. Unless of course the entire world's governments ban their citizens from trading bitcoin.
