    I was going to respond again, but I deleted it when I realized it is obvious you do not grasp the reality of this. It is easier to put you on ignore.

    Please explain "hedging" to me like I'm a 1st grader

    unfortunately, none of the above is really the purpose of true hedging. This is too focused on traders eye view of hedging. The real purpose of hedging allows a buyer or a seller of something to lock in the price of something For example, Hershey buys a LOT of chocolate and sugar for...

    Crackdown on Wall Street: The Perp Walks Are Coming

    The first thing you need to do, is understand what a Black Swan is, before dismissing what you don't see. The Black Swan theory refers to a large-impact, hard-to-predict, and rare event beyond the realm of normal expectations. It was large-impact, beyond the realm of normal, and...

    Crackdown on Wall Street: The Perp Walks Are Coming

    I fear that all we are doing, is cleaning up the balance sheets of these institutions, so they can do it all over again. The Black Swan hit. But their behavior led to this. Who said the Black Swan isn't a Black Flock?

    Full Time Traders Where do you Put Cash?

    That is why you don't pick companies that are in trouble or doing stupid things like extreme leveraging. Even in a recession, people will smoke, drink and the other companies listed will be in much better shape than others.

    Full Time Traders Where do you Put Cash?

    I am not so sure govt bonds are the safe thing these days. They are doling out HUGE amounts of debt at low interest rates. Another possibility, is corporate bonds of a REALLY established, large, growing company that is a dominant player. Something like IBM or Intel or Toyota or Budweiser...

    AP Investigation: Banks sought foreign workers

    As to most of the posts within this thread, it is like listening to a group if 8th graders in the boy's room arguing whose is longer. The US unemployment rate of engineers has always been very low. If engineers were not brought here, as many companies demanded to fill hard-to-fill roles, the...

    AP Investigation: Banks sought foreign workers

    Ignorance, is what prevented you from a "great engineering career." I spent many years in the engineering arena, and your descriptions are only appropriate for Dilbert, not for reality. None of it rings true. The US unemployment rate among engineers has been something like 2-3% for many years.

    North and South Korea near War!

    Umm, yeah. In Gulf War 1, Iraq had one of the biggest armies on Earth. The Ground War lasted 3 days. It is only a problem now, since it is modern military against roadside bombs and islamists. Think they have something to match an M1-A1 Abrams tank, cruising near 60MPH, yet still with the...

    I Was Right - Rise In Crude Beginning Of The End

    Then do us a favor, and get lost. Your life is so empty, that you had to come back 3 years later to brag about saying stupid things to people you don't know?? Did you sit around with a calendar and a crude chart, waiting for the chance to do this?

    Crisis Fuels Backlash on Trade

    EXACTLY. We went from a service and manufacturing powerhouse, to an outsourcing center, giving away expertise, jobs, and many things to the lowest available wages. Our trade deficit is terrifying, and aside from this economic crisis, expanding rapidly every year. In the US, labor and...
