    Clinton Gets Journalists Freed from North Korea

    Voted Dumbest Post of the Month! Yeah, the North Koreans were so "afraid" of Big Bad "Bush" that they kept firing missile after missile after missle . . . during Bush's Presidency. Keep drinking that "Bushy" Kool-Aid. :D You are without a doubt, the biggest MORON on ET. Thanks again...

    US Commercial banks alone own an unbelievable $202 trillion in derivatives.

    There are plenty of derivative contracts that are tailored towards institutional investors yet still are cleared via a clearing house and are subject to SEC and/or CFTC jurisdiction and regulation.

    This Depression is just beginning

    Agreed. The $141 Billion that got slashed from inventories in Q-2 will also argue for a bigger bounce than expected before year end.

    Paul Tudor Jones

    I first met Monroe back in 1986 before he became super famous as a successful hedge-fund manager. Really nice guy. Former captain of the Harvard basketball team at 6'8" tall. Graduated magna cum laude in Economics. His Dad was pretty sharp as I recall too... former CEO and Chairman of American...

    Orly Taitz: Idiot of The Month!

    This is the same idiot that pulled the political stunt of filing suit on behalf of Major Stephen Frederick Cook, who volunteered for service in Afghanistan and then sued to stop the Army from sending him there. The Army has already vacated his orders. In his civilian life, Cook is a...

    Orly Taitz: Idiot of The Month!

    I guess someone forgot to tell the "nutbag" Taitz that Mombasa wasn't a part of Kenya back in 1961. It was part of Zanzibar. As for Kenya, it wasn't even a Republic at that time... It was still a British Dominion. It didn't become a Republic of Kenya until Dec. 12th, of 1964. But the...

    You pretty much hit the nail on the head. The 2006 Mid-Term elections easily confirmed that.

    Reasons to be bullish

    Once again you prove that you watch far too much TV. What is it that you do for a living? Are you a student at home on summer vacation? At home on disability? What is it exactly that you do for a living besides littering ET with all of these absurd "cut and paste" articles that have...

    if you own SRS you're SOL

    This is why people like S2007S clearly don't TRADE for a living... If they did, they wouldn't be claiming to average down on one ETF after another and "cut and pasting" one bearish article on the economy, after another. It's a big mistake to trade off of what you "believe" the fundamentals of...

    how come CDS dont trade standardized like options

    Because Republican Phil Gramm spearheaded the "Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000" that allowed CDS to be unregulated and trade OTC, under the desk. His legislation also allowed for West Texas Intermediate crude oil to be traded in Dubai and London without any CFTC oversight...
