Quote from flytiger:
I'm not smarter than most. But I am more honest, and I have more scruples. And if you're spoon feeding me chicken shit, and telling me it's chicken salad, I'll know. I figured there'd be a financial ban on shorting after the close. I called one of the investigators. He bought 20,000 RBS, UYG........ That's just critical thinking. If it's a world crisis, the governments are acting in tandem. Can you think like that, or do you need a 'hot tip' for a "real good guy'.
I'm flat. Not my style. I stay with my discipline. And I don't trade on inside information. I am probably more talented thatn Cohen and Loeb. They'll just do shit I won't do.
If the SEC had not done this, you'd have no market monday morning. There'd be no atms, no money markets, no markets. I'm sorry you're short across the board. But that's the risk. You couldn't figure it was a crowded trade? You couldn't figure the bear raids on MS< GS, STT were manipulative? That something would be done.
Let me tell you what a reporter, who will probably be incarcerated very shortly, told me when I was on the balls of my ass and begging for help in this, "I'm sorry for your troubles."
And I'm sorry for yours. Because you wishing harm on me shows what a sad demented individual you are. .
What I should do, is load up on a particular stock that the politicians are talking about. Get a good slug, the calls. Then, I should come here, put it on Wall St. News, and sell to the newbies, and some of you. But I won't. Know why? It's the wrong thing to do. You should try this approach sometime.. you know. Doing the right thing, not doing the wrong.
And if you guys think this week was something, you wait. You aint' seen nothing yet. You will be shocked beyond you're wildest dreams.
Personally, I admire the integrity. Cheers, mate.
