Video: Trader, Paul Tudor Jones

Probably just afraid how investors in his fund would perceive his ability of managing their money after watching the video. If I viewed this video in the late 80s, I would doubt his abilities as he comes off as really reckless. Negative publicity is far worse than a losing year. In this game, reputation defines you.

What did Buffett say?... 5min to ruin a 20yr old reputation.

All in all, I find him to be a pretty decent guy and don't think there are any 'secrets' revealed in the video. If anything, it should serve as an inspiration looking as how he managed to turn a ~100mil fund into tens of billions as of present.

P.S. Perhaps he wanted to stop distribution because of the swimsuit model's picture hanging in his office. :)
 
Good video.

I think he yanked it because he is afraid people will found out how he used multiple brokers to cause a panic in the market.

It makes you wonder if he predicted the market crash in 1987 or he caused it.

Anyhow, he is a great trader, nonetheless. He did a lot of charity work, and I respect him for it.

Did the video automatically start running for you guys when you clicked on the link, or did you have to enter a password and, or sign up and log in?

With Google translating, I don't see a box to enter the password mentioned above, only a search box.

Thanks.
 
OK, the password thing was a joke.

There is a 15 secs commercial, you might have to wait for that to load, or sometimes the browser itself doesn't play it. Try a different browser, I watched it with Opera. I wouldn't be surprised if IE doesn't play it. Also you need to have Flash installed...

Kind of figured that it might be a joke, but was willing to play the straight man in case it wasn't. Tried IE and Chrome with Flash...no luck.
