From the SEC Website: COMMISSION ANNOUNCEMENTS SEC TO END SHORT SALE TICK TEST ON JULY 6, 2007 On June 13, 2007, the Commission voted to remove the tick test of Rule 10a-1 and to amend Regulation SHO to provide that no short sale price test, including any price test of any...

Sure 560 days without settling his trades is just a fig newton of my imagination. Nothing could be wrong there, could it????

I'd be interested in your ability to get a locate, and the vig. Fast money last night had CMG CEO on. They mentioned a 30% short position, but they never mentioned the stocks tenure on the SHO list, which could easily double the number of shorts. One of the guys smirked and just shook his...

Fun firm in the day, wasn't it? God, what a wild west show.

This whole thing is as predictable as a Cop Show on TV. The only variable is, you can't look at your watch, see there is only ten minutes left, and know the bad guy is going down in 6 minutes, allowing four for the commercials. Guys like Gross tell you what you know, but the Street lies for...

Around 1972, I was serving on a nuclear strike base in Europe. We got a new security chief, and as always, the scuttlebutt preceded. "Hey, I hear this guy is Strac (polished, tough)! He headed up President Kennedy's security." "Yeah? How'd that work out.???" This reminds me of that...

awwww, go ahead. Get yourself some uh dat 22:1 leverage. What can go wrong?

Don't you remember this when it came to light? Anybody? They were counting the money they were adding as part of their return. It the account was 100 grand, and they added 10, that was a ten percent return. And the press tripped over themselves to write it. The true cylical top comes...

I fell for it. The commercial says, "just eat the food". I've always been an overachiever - I'm up to September, and I haven't lost a pound. Next, I'm trying the Sopranos diet. "Stop eatin', you fat bastard." Thanks for the post, I was curious about the system, given the stock has been...

It's the leverage. Brookstreet used retail as a sponge, and at even 50% margin, they wiped out 3000 accounts. Read the WSJ this weekend. CDO's owned CDo's, owned CDO's. What 's the leverage? 10:1? More like 20 or 30. You may only yield 1% onassets, but with the leverage, you outperform...

Only because I couldn't find a picture of Silvia What's Her Face http://www.pointlessvandalism.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/done0001.jpg Someone post the picture for me before the link expires. It is priceless.

Careful what you wish for. The mighty are about to take a mighty fall. Book it! The 26 th is looming to be large.

You know, I was in this menage a tois w/ Paris, Lindsay, Liz Clayman was late, so we didn't let her in. Well, I was so totally disgusted with this after the fact, I vowed never to see them again, even though they begged. But I didn't start a thread.

Notice noobs. Not one word about his 3244 accounts, many not only wiped out, but at a neg balance. My sources tell me these guys were huge naked shorters helping out Canadian scumbags. No apologies. This is Wall St. It's all about them. Brookstreet Securities says closes after CMO losses...
