Wall Street, Douglas!
I think greed & fear are the primary elements to make market works. No greed, no bull; no bull, no market. No fear, no bear; no bear, no market.

Quote from 88888accountant:

"The point is ladies and gentlemen, is that GREED, for lack of a better word, is good. greed's right. Greed works. Greed cuts through, captures, and clarifies the essence of the evolutionary spirt. Greed in all its forms. Greed for money, for love, for knowledge, has marked the upward surge in mankind since the beginning of time, and it is greed ladies and gentlemen, that will not only save teldar paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" -Gordon Gekko
 
Oh yeah, and by the way, YOU CAN GENERALIZE REGARDING WOMEN. Maybe what you meant to say was you shouldn't generalize about women. (It would still be wrong, just not ignorant) Here's a generalization:

"The majority of women have hair"

hard to refute, but what if I said:

"Most women are less athletic than men"

again this is hard to refute, but I bet the second statement bothers you, because its more negative. It doesn't mean that women can't be athletes, and compete on the same level as men, but that does get read into it. Which in turn, upsets people by there ignorant inferences, which leads to the world problem of political correctness, which stifles communication, creates legal fees, and leave the common voter in despair.

-Keep up the good work.

majority of women have hair....because we are physiologically superior to men:D we are not handicaped by that nasty Y chromosome. Absolutely men are more athletic and stronger than women simply because of testosterone...more muscle mass less body fat.....sooooooo what?

edit: I personally don't consider it a negative in any sense...but a reality... as I said men are physically stronger and more athletic, not a generalization (may be a characterization)...so what?
 
Thank you for the tribute to us, I am a War vet and my stats are 36-48- 42, and no boys I won't reveal my weight. I am a full blown lesbo so please you bruts, no love letters. If I were to flip over to the other side I would like no other than $$$MR.MARKET$$$ to roger me roundly. I love the strong gorilla type. There's nothing more exciting than starting the trading day in black fishnets, thong, high heels, tassels and a whip.

Well, I believe it now that I see occupation = Pastor :D :D :D
 
The fact is that trading performance at the top echelons is dominated by men. Given the anonymity and pure performance-driven basis of trading, it seems hard to explain this huge imbalance other than that i) men prefer trading as a career much more than women, or ii) the best men tend to be better at it on average than the best women. There may be another reason for the discrepancy, but I can't think of one as of yet.
