Byrne Takes Full Page WSJ Ad, Taunts Stevie

Maybe if you presented your arguments in a non-pretentious way, you would get more credence. But no, you insist on glamorizing everything and talking about taking advantage of grandmothers.

So, wait a second, you are taking credit for SAC now? I just want to make sure how far you will go to self promote.
 
I joined a few days ago and already regret because finding the 1% nuggets among the 99% garbage such as the one flytiger produces is a pure pain and huge waste of time.

I am by far no poster boy for hedge funds and sell side firms but truth of the matter is that the biggest anti wall-street type of guys who vent on this site are the ones who least likely ever set foot into a hedge fund or ibank and thus are least qualified to judge and understand what is going on.

If being asked what I think the biggest sin committed in this age is then I would without hesitation say its to allow people with low intellect make nefarious claims without providing the slightest factual backup in an attempt to have even dumber people join their quest.

I was in this business when your momma was wiping your ass. I left it in disgust. What we have tried to do is clean it up. The capital markets belong to everyone, not just a bunch of thugs who think it's ok to fleece the other guy.

I have nothing to gain here monetarily. I just happen to understand the difference between right and wrong. I see you have no such compunction.
 
well, the typical guy who did not make the cut (of course you were made to leave in disgust). Its a tough environment and you need to perform daily (I worked for 15 years at ibanks and hedge funds and still do). Most often the biggest underperformers were the ones who vented the most and suddenly turned to become apostles of right and wrong in their selfless vendetta.

You and your followers have STILL not produced a single piece of evidence where naked short selling directly violated laws and then common regulations. Nothing!!! So, I recommend you be the one who goes back to the drawing board to gather your evidence. You can vent as much as you want but as long as you have nothing to show to support your claims and accusations I recommend you butt out and shut up.

So, the stock is down, it's junk. The stock is up, it's junk. $35.35 at this writing. He beats two hedgefunds, and gets millions of dollars. He takes on Merrill and GS in court, and discovery is extremely damaging to GS and MER, albeit there is no decision. Byrne is fundamental in the SAC saga and they are indicted.

You are correct, in your mind. All circumstantial. We're all crazy. We should just turn the reigns over to you and your ilk. Dream on. Not going to happen.

BTW, the charades of your industry do nothing but deliver it to the liberals, who will handcuff you to the headboard and beat you to a pulp. The regulations I'm sure you despise are your fault. You brought the attention to yourselves with unmitigated greed. But you know, I know a lot. And you guys are worse than the Democrats. You both will kill us all. But it'll be slower with them.
 
sure, you are dreaming buddy. You should learn to adapt to the market you obviously have only anger inside of you and hatred for an industry in which you did not make the cut. What regulations are you talking about? HFT is still doing fine, most ibanks and a number hedge funds are performing at their best. Not all hedge funds and banks are evil as you make them out to be. But to each his own.

Good news is, even smart and hard working retail guys can make it. But it looks like you rather post rants according to your post count.

I was patient and have asked plenty times enough for evidence of wrong doing and law violations. Nothing came back in return. So, go on and rant I am out of here plus you on ignore. Good luck whatever life endeavor you chose for yourself.

They have a lot of free information here that may be good in getting an edge for those of you that trade stocks. I was positive on real money futures scalp today, but would not mind just waiting for the swing trades for more profit.

Now back to the list. What you should look for is when the list contains over 200,000 or more shares. At this point we have a stock that not only has been shorted 100%, but now they can't locate more shares to short. When the qty is just a few hundred shares, the information is meaningless.

Next you research the company. At this point in time technically we are in a bull market, so you want to see if the company has real fundamental problems like a previous manager ran off with money or they are unable to report financials due to fraud or are a company in China. If there are real problems, you could try to short the stock by buying put options or just don't do anything.

However, if the overall company has the ability like Overstock to weather the short attack and go back up to new highs, you could then go long the stock by buying shares or long dated call options.

I won't tell you why, or how. But those numbers are meaningless. Now think about the madness of 2008, the BSC hedgies, housing prices ALWAYS go up. Like there is no end to anything. They are short floats 2, 3, 4 times. OSTK? Don't know. But it can and has been done.

"Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS) and Merrill Lynch & Co. employees discussed helping naked short-sales by market-maker clients in e-mails the banks sought to keep secret, including one in which a Merrill official told another to ignore compliance rules, Overstock.com Inc. (OSTK) said in a court filing. - See more at: http://www.senseoncents.com/2012/05...ling-wall-st-conspiracy/#sthash.vXdd0ghh.dpuf"

As we can see, Overstock did have some e-mails that helped either win a settlement or a lawsuit. As for when this started, the fails to deliver data was not provided by the SEC. Overstock actually was happy when the SEC started to provide the information.

Again companies do not just give $ 5 million to settle a lawsuit or everyone would just sue to make money.

Remember all Overstock needs to win its lawsuit is prove that these companies engaged in illegal market manipulation to drive down its stock price. The e-mails are more important than the actual data of fails to deliver since we are now able to show intent.

And they are in California, where the jury will be comprised of, well, Californians. A ploy of the Street is to get every case moved to NYC. Maybe PB is just smarter than you all think. (-: Oh, and the naked shorts? I'll take the over.
