Of course women are better traders! Haven't you heard of uh, hmmm, can't think of one right now, but anyways, in today's society we need to encourage trading diversity and start handing out participation trophies to minority traders even if they lose money. Maybe we can enlist the Rainbow...

Geo, I worked at Bankers Trust Plaza for a few years (currently the Deutsche Bank building scheduled for demolition across from Ground Zero). I agree with you; the new design reeks of the triumph of the security state. The view from the World Financial Center is going to be a giant tombstone.

Hear hear!

Fantastic decision. I'm happy to see government prosecutors getting their ass kicked. Too many people in jail anyways -- Americans love to jail people. Murderers, rapists, and molesters -- jail 'em. Release everyone else and have them do something productive in life!

Just wait until we have the Keystroke Crash of '07.

Northeast real estate is the lee-duh, not the lah-gud. Last week, the Boston Globe reported that in Middlesex County, foreclosure filings rose 34 percent in the first five months of this year compared with the same period in 2004 and that in 10 out of 14 counties in Massachusetts, foreclosure...

Man, is this the most humbling profession or what? Lots of smart people go into trading and get their clocks cleaned. And when successful people are confronted with failure, this is what happens. I understand this guy's rationale -- just like Nick Leeson et al. he was waiting for his trade to...

I disagree. New techs are Roman candles now, exploding on ever-shorter growth cycles. Already, the GOOG targets are based on unsustainable growth acceleration. Maybe not this quarter, but the stock will get cut in half on disappointing earnings within the year. GOOG doesn't have a stranglehold...

Failed Hammer. ROFLMAO!

I don't know, but I see those three little Indians up there.

Well, if the President's popularity rating gets low enough, we'll have at least one oil shock down when he releases the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

Nail meets head :D

I like all of the Amazon "reviews" for his books... wonder who was hired to write all those "reader from Blah" comments.

Yeah, especially in your neck of the woods...

Occasionally, they profile an unnoticed microcap that works out well. I find that the ones not covered by other news feeds can be traded profitably.

Hey, nice to hear from a losing trader!

Exactly. Now anyone can claim "technical error" to bust trades -- it's a scam. If their system fucks up and the trades aren't busted, then maybe next time they won't make the same mistake.

I think the worst news for the credit industry was the New York Times article that profiled people who stuffed their business reply envelopes for credit card applications with lead weights and heavy stock paper. Supposedly, their mailing costs went through the roof after that article because...

10- and 30-minute

You can't. Because one day a "trading error" will knock the market down 10%, and all of the buyers who stepped in will get long, then their trades will be busted. The chief executive of the Nasdaq Robert Greifeld, who got a $4.7 million signing bonus in May, will earn at least $2.5 million...
