I'm backed by my market neutral strategy that laughs at retards who try to time the market...

Awesome....they only care about misdemeanors related to fraud....

what about misdemeanors if there was no conviction?

meh, that's not so bad...just sucks you got a felony for it. Thing is, it does show dishonesty, though. See, a place like Fidelity doesn't care if you had a DUI 10 years ago, or got caught with pot.

Um, the Chinese still have a centrally planned economy to a large extent. The government plays a much more direct role in supporting institutions such as education, scientific research, etc. They're about as far from the libertarian ideal as you can get. I would argue that we will lose our...

What was your felony conviction for? I have drug misdemeanor charges....I'm a real screw up. But a felony conviction? Honestly, that's not easy to get when you're young. Was it for drugs? Cuz I know some firms don't care if it was teen drug stuff (I talked with HR at a big mutual fund...

^If MIT grad students were given a guarantee of pussy for discovering an alternative energy source, they'd find it....

I'm short U.S. consumer discretionary....long Emerging market staples....waiting for commodities correction, but not short yet. I'm one of the only global macro position traders here. Kinda lonely. I know nothing about daytrading, to be honest. And I don't believe in TA. I've only been...

he's out of touch....the whole mutual fund industry is out of touch. In fairness, I couldn't generate good returns if I had to buy and hold 15 billion dollar market cap domestic equities...horrible style/asset class to be in. The days of individual stock picking of domestic equities to...

Basically, the short term spikes in CC and RT just help disprove rational expectations theory....with RT, the float is small enough now that they're will be a lot of volatility on the way down, I'm sure. Again, I'm longer term so I really can't offer any short term analysis. If I look at the...

^yeah, but there's a problem. The small cap short space is tiny. There's very little liquidity, hence the profit potential from the inefficiency for the little guy. So, we'd be fighting for shares to short. seriously, it's that tight....I mean, 3 guys, it'd be cool. But enough people read this...

I made 40% already on the TMS short....so a bit late...will cover... Also, not a current short, cuz i couldn't get shares- but CC and TRMP are junk too... Also, although I didn't short in my portfolio, I've had JSDA on my short list and even a little blog piece a while back...they might be...

yeah. It's trading for $7 and not .021 cents...... If they declare bankruptcy, which they probably will, they pay debtors first. They have practically no current assets. So they sell their real estate. They will take such a huge hit.....I don't think shareholders could get anything.

Don't mean to be an a-hole or self-important, but I'm not really able to disclose em all. Basically, I look for small caps w/bearish technicals, negative sales surprises/post earnings drift, high leverage, high cash burn, cyclical sectors. I do more research from there to narrow my screen...

short since Jan. 23....start price-7.23 I'm Down 7% so far... still holding the short. Junk stocks like RT have run up on the last couple sucker rallies because of the small float/high short interest. RT was culled from a quant screen along with a couple others. I'm a positional...

^yeah, I know from Boston Public Schools....spitting distance from Harvard, and yet the kids carry guns instead of books. Gotta go to the burbs to get a mediocre education, and to a 40k/year private to get standard Canadian education. I'm in Canada now. I'm amazed at the quality of public...

who decides the intrinsic value of a commodity? My great macro prediction: a short lived correction in the next 6 months, followed by a continued secular bull run.... Whenever oil dips, I just buy up all the small contract drillers with huge back logs...easiest money there is.

^have you ever heard of Ricardian Equivalence? You seem pretty igorant, hedgefundtrader. Honestly. You might be a good trader, but you'd make a horrible investor or policy analyst.

^ I love it. Couldn't have said it better.

oh yeah-even if inflation leads to an expansion of p/e multiples in NOMINAL terms.... Corporate earnings are likely to revert to the mean, after a couple years of record margins. So the "E" will contract, regardless. I mean, there will still be awesome new upstarts to invest in, in the...
