Any way this can be interpreted as, since he is against bankers getting any bigger, he would be AGAINST a transaction tax that takes trading out of the hands of the every man and gives it to the banks and brokerages to manipulate as they see fit? Or am I reaching?

why can't the mods turn on the feature that limits a newbie's ability to start threads before a certain post count, like 30 or so posts? You have this for broker ratings, why not for thread starting?

Not really practical since mentioning one's own firm w/o being some type of supporter (i.e. advertiser) is frowned upon, as well as one-post-wonders who would come here "praising" what a great firm they heard about. Reference the above linked site for lists of firms and refer your queries...

No. If you look at IB's website, they have a tiered commission schedule for unbundled commissions. 0 - 300k shares are .0035/shr 300,001 - 2MM are .002 2,000,001 -20MM .0015 etc. You have to add in rebates or costs for taking or adding liquidity to your trades. Depending on what ECN...

Oh, we're screwed. The Dems will push it thru now just to spite his camp.

Supportive (against, that is) piece in the NY Post this morning about this stupid tax: http://www.nypost.com/p/news/business/crippling_stox_trade_tax_is_dc_dopiest_FjTzc9yyV3vnSdTzdPyXsM Comment section follows article.

So... Since this pissing contest started about getting ripped for .0002/shr trading one's own money, are you telling us that the firm where you trade YOUR money is only charging these three mandatory fees? No commissions? Nothing for them? Magnanimous trading firm? Robin Hood of Water Street...

Thanx. I am just getting so tired of this jackass. I think that once we find out who his opponent is, we should contribute to the Republican challenger and try to get this dolt removed from office.

Just curious, how is .0002/share a ripoff? (20 cents/1000 => .2/1000 = .0002)

Done.

After watching the piece on Bloomberg, it is apparent that Nancy lied and he just b*tch-slapped her credibility a bit. I especially liked this: “I have not seen the version of that that I think works,” Geithner said in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s “Political Capital with...

Correct, but if US companies list on another exchange, the tax would not be in effect, at least my take on this. IT would be like trading the DAX. Consused about Queen Nancy, tho... in the link to a WSJ article concerning the jobs program shis is quoted as saying that Congress wasn't...

Amazing move in the Euro! Could be over reaching tho.
