Quote from The Kin2:
this had to be on the back of everyones mind after reading about that huge options bet thats far out of the money. No one makes a bet that big unless they know something others dont. Remember airlines got shorted the shit out of them before 9/11. All you need to do is follow the money.
I am not subscribing to the "terrorist theory", just pointing out that most terrorists are not deterred by the thought of being caught. Martyrdom is their reward, and being successful is not necessary, instilling fear is the primary objective more so than the actual destruction of life and property. Regarding stupidity, intelligent and rational people are not the principle perpetrators of these acts. Anything is possible and unfortunately at any time.Quote from Bob111:
that would be plain stupid. just like robbing same bank on same day, same time. Odds for being caught will be way higher imo.

I thought this was explained as a company shuffling a position between accounts... don't have the link at the moment, but someone on ET pointed that out (or at least, I thought they did.)
