An easy feat if you don't mind killing a million + to achieve it. Not exactly something that commends the evil bastard. Glad he is gone, just wished it had been more painful and less public. American should never have handed him over to that farce of a court, they should have just taken him to...

You are unlucky or self sabotaging

Rubbish, today saw some of the biggest bids on the SPY in a long time. Overall volume may have been low but when it was needed it was significant.

That was no fat finger, that was someone trying to keep this thing from melting before the year is out. Someone is going to be very wrong next week.

Don't know about joking but I am laughing :D

That's right, because if the GOP suddenly had control of the Senate instead of the Dems for another two years that would be a non event. Get a clue.

No news? How about the GOP very likely getting the senate back!

Time to short some Rimm again.

That pop was a gift this morning.
