Thats very wrong. Should a trader always be worth something because the things he trades are worth something? There is a thing called a margin call, a bankruptcy, and a roll, all of which conspire against a trader.

One of the posters is suggesting that a carry trade unwind is still in effect from the May 6 flash crash era. If this were true (and I think it is), it's possible that monetary policy gets subverted and it obviously creates these distortions in the yen (its risen because of the unwind of a...

I've gone all-in on a bailout, cause I've made it out, I buy junk bonds when I post bond, like Gekko. I'm really ticked off, naked and short, long on the vix, my girls got ticks from the order flow, like Timmy Sykes I chase pennies, sometimes penny stocks, and then I talk; on chat boards...

Oh, the luck of the Irish... leprechaun, meet fibonacci!

More like govt secretly favors those who provide favors to them....

I've met retired people with the same attitude. It's scary.

I recommend buying the most expensive coffee - honduras coffee. I find it regulates blood sugar very well. Also buy an upright desk that you can stand next to during portions of the day to relieve your back and legs. I use seat that is a stool, bought from Costco for under $150. Ikea used...

maybe you mean the Saudi Arabians?

Don't they need to sterilize the trades against something? Like issuing bonds to unwind the value of the yen?

At these levels, Turkey, China, Canada, and the Philippines represent good shorts if you are trading long term macro, imo.

The next bank in Europe ought to be called "Wounded Knee"

The stock is ARNA. You are going to lose 50%+ on the long. So just get out now at a loss.

Big government doesn't just steal your money, they steal your productivity. They steal workers from the private sector who would otherwise have worked for the private sector, but are instead highly compensated public servants and contribute little, if anything to GDP. Read Vanity Fair's...

If they were Canadian, Eh Man Brothers would be more fitting. ..

if the shoe fits, wear it.....
