MrHanky Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Just shut up at buy,everything is just fine!
DrStool Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Have a great holiday weekend! I'll be checking in from time to time from the road. Don't be surprised if there are very few posts this weekend. Labor Day weekend is among the quietest periods of the year.
Slappy Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Doc, stop in if you get out our way. I front ran the Obrother stimulus plan and now have a bunch of KBH sept12 calls and a fine new chakteau. It should all be bringing in munnie by Thursday.
Goldmember Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Obama and... Efffin'... VOLKER!!! ...the prick who pulled out of his ASS 20% interest rates? ...eff him if he can't trade his ASS out of a hole in the ground! Prop trading desks have been around for...like...FOREVER! ...at least since the days of Rubin et al. So who the hell was Volker? Eff him...some prick who created a virtual non-lending environment and my first mrotgouge was 15% and happy to pay even that then in the eighties? ...the pendulum swings too far!
Drano Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 starting the weekend a little early, goldmember?
Goldmember Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 The ramifications ARE JUST TOO HUGE! Without prop desks inadvertantly contributing to the oscillations of price, creating the movements in the charts and some beta as a by-product, dead flat markets from lack of participants are no solution to anything.
Ags Nightmare Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Anyone watching Moo Hererra and the 4 floor monkeys called "The Derivatives"... I feel like I am living in an alternative universe.....They are playing some video game now...

They could be more dangerous flying under the radar with a back stage pass. The pigmen will never go away.

mdporter Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Obama and... Efffin'...

IMO there should be no bots, and no trading by "banks". If you want to be an honest bank, then act like one. If you want to trade, then be a trading house. They shouldn't be allowed to be combined.
Goldmember Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 yeah...at arm length...wink, wink, nod, nod, oink, oink, ...sittin' in Bermuda or the Camans or Uraguay or Lichmybagennstein over in Yourope...with a private underwater fiber optic line direct to HQ Mothership. I can just see the White Shoes shufflin' past the NYSE and staring derogatively at the poor downtroddin' wrinkled ex-traders after their Dole ran out...selling pencils, apples and Christmas trees to the very few well-heeled left in Manhattan. One White Shoe shuffles around the corner and spots an old friend, carrying a squeegee in his knarled arthritic hand. Their eyes briefly lock together. The White Shoe, pausing, trying to not have to acknowledge his old friend, eventually pries his lips open and says... "...see. If you spoke Lichmybaggen...and had a passport...you'd still have a job...maybe" ...while there are attractive side-effects, see above...the idea of collecting 5 cents of premium on a call or put write six months out does no good either.
