    1200+ post and nearly 1100 spent running around the Politics and Religion thread. Yawn. Your tired schtick is getting old.

    Anti-Obama Rally in Jerusalem

    Actually it is you stalking every Obama thread with your incessant need to share your opinion on the most trivial shit.

    Publicly Traded Firms and Portfolio Risk

    At IB, yes. All availble funds are swept into your SIPC protected account. But not other futures brokers. (I think MBT has futures and equities in seperate accounts, but am not sure). When you trader with a futures broker (MF Global, Advantage, Global, Dorman, etc) you do not have insurance...

    Publicly Traded Firms and Portfolio Risk

    The thing about IB is that they have increased protection thru a Llyod's insurance policy - cash to 1MM and securities to 30MM. The thing about SIPC and IB's additional protection is that it is to cover anything that is not 100% returned to the owner. And unlike the above mentioned Madoff...

    Publicly Traded Firms and Portfolio Risk

    worried in what sense? That you could lose some or all of your money? That is why there is SIPC. If you have more than the threshold amts, then you may want to diversify your holdings. You don't want to become like the Madoff victims who put ALL their eggs in one basket.

    Taking 320K to 3.5million by Year End 2009

    IB's Market-on-Open (MOO) Order

    If memory serves, there are no MOO order types for futures trading, so this discussion about Velocity and Mirus et al is irrelevant.

    Cop Who Arrested Gates Not Ruling Out Defamation Lawsuit

    Try to ignore it. Why does everything require a comment? Let it stand on it's own merits and if it is nothing but bullshit, as you claim, then it will falter on its own accord. Except of course for the issue of Obama and his gay "body man".

    Cop Who Arrested Gates Not Ruling Out Defamation Lawsuit

    And how many threads have I followed you around on? Your response was rather juvenille. I guess I should have expected more, but then again...

    Cop Who Arrested Gates Not Ruling Out Defamation Lawsuit

    Don't your arms get tired flittering around trying to defend Obama about EVERY LITTLE THING anyone says against him? You know what you remind me of? One of those little Bushites who also ran around defending an idiot.

    DX futures or spot forex

    because the DX represents a basket of currencies against the USD not a single currency, even if it is heavily weighted by the EUR.

    Hoboken, NJ

    You'd think so, but the same arguments were made in 91 and 02 when everyone's wealth was sapped then. And yet people will still go out and spend, spend, spend. There's a reason why advertisers pay millions of dollars to advertise during the Super Bowl - it's because we are a consumption society...

    So I just had a KFC value meal...

    Yeah, my bad. I Googled TARP and this is what came up. What I was looking for was the numbers from the fall, in which, in a snit, the House Repubs first defeated the vote and only a reluctant few signed on for the final vote. There were similar numbers I believe in the Senate, too. (edit, I see...

    So I just had a KFC value meal...

    If memory serves, most of the Repubs in the Hose and Senate voted against TARP. http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/01/15/1746382.aspx Can't find house numbers, but I believe it was similar. Why does everyone keep saying this was a Repub give away? It was an idiot giving it...

    So I just had a KFC value meal...

    I am by no means a fan of Obamanomics, but this is just, to steal a phrase I believe you like to use on occasion, bollocks. In the event of emergency care, and a heart attack (or chose another malady: amputation, obstructed airway, blocked colon, ruptured appendix, etc. take your pick)...

    Obama says he is gonna reduce costs?

    no. 3.5 million he says. Was shocked but said it was because surgeon's rates are much higher than the norm because of the higher incidence of complications resulting from their care. Don't know if it was his personal costs or for the group (3 drs) but it was still a shocking number
