What possible circumstance would make even uber criminal Cox stop from accumulating vast amounts of wealth to stop all short selling? Odd, I was sitting here, thinking about eight years of this nonsense, knowing the players, and I call ed a friend, and said, "hey, I think..........." and he said, "look at what I just sent you." You self centered punks better wake the fuck up, and realize this is bigger than you moving out of your parents house. When you see the viciousness and volatility of the selling, there really is only one conclusion. You better hope I'm wrong. Because I haven't been yet. Source: http://www.bignews.biz/?id=787032&pg=1&keys=Wallstreet-SEC-Terrorist-FBI BY MICHAEL WEBSTER: INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER Sept 18, 2008 1201 PM PDT U.S. government law enforcement agencies including the SEC, FBI and DOJ are on alert and are believed investigating terror and other related short selling illegal manipulation of the market place. It was reported that between August 26 and September 11, 2001, groups of speculators, including Middle Eastern country investors, some reported connected to terrorist such as Al Qaeda and the Ben Laden family, these groups were believed connected to predicting the demise of certain airline and buildings including the New York Trade Center. Still others were identified by the American Securities and Exchange Commission as Israeli citizens, who sold "short" a list of 38 stocks that could reasonably be expected to fall in value as a result of the pending 911 attacks. According to the reports these speculators operated out of the Toronto, Canada and Frankfurt, Germany, stock exchanges and their profits were specifically stated to be huge. Apparently none of the suspicious transactions could be traced to bin Laden because this news item quietly dropped from sight, leaving many people wondering if it tracked back to American firms or intelligence agencies The feds have seen a possible similar trends operating on Wall Street recently and no end to the panic selling on Wall Street. US corporate regulator, the SEC, is seeking to ease the terror by implementing emergency rules relating to short selling. This possible action will be stronger than the recent use of the emergency powers that the SEC invoked in July to slap a temporary ban on "naked" shorting of 19 companies, including the mortgage insurers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and a number of major investment banks and commercial banks. The new aim will be to stop "unlawful manipulation" of American companies and their stock and to hopefully help to maintain orderly markets. Just how much damage has been done is not known but is believe catustrafic. Short selling of stocks involves the opportunity to gain large profits by passing shares to a friendly third party, then buying them back when the price falls. Historically, if this precedes a traumatic event, it is an indication of foreknowledge. It is widely known that the CIA uses the Promis and other cutting edge software to routinely monitor stock trades as a possible warning sign of a terrorist attack or suspicious economic behavior. A week after the September 11, 2001 attacks, the London Times reported that the CIA had asked regulators for the Financial Services Authority in London to investigate the suspicious sales of millions of shares of stock just prior to the terrorist acts. It was hoped the business paper trail might lead to the terrorists. The US Government as a result of the recent falling market has now nationalized Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, by investing American tax payerâs money to hopefully bail them out. US Government has also nationalized the world's largest insurer, American International Group, (AIG) which was not on the SEC's list. That so far has cost the American tax payer an additional 80 million for an 80% ownership of the shares. This nationalization of Massive American institutions is a socialization of America. The government claims by placing them in what it dubs as "conservatorship" will give the American people the opportunity to make money should the government be able to turn it around. However even should they make money on the deal it is hard to see how the American people could benefit from it, according to Wall Street insiders? All this while two of the major investment banks on the SEC list have now disappeared -- Lehman Bros and Merrill Lynch. Naked" short selling practice is technically not illegal, but dealer-brokers are required to have "reasonable grounds" to believe the securities can be borrowed to enable settlement. The SEC has long held the power to make emergency orders, but it is only now that they are invoking orders that will be unprecedented. Such orders may become permiant. The SEC has also adopted a rule that makes it fraudulent, and a violation of the law, if short sellers deceive broker-dealers or any other participants as to their ability to delivery securities within time for settlement. The new rules apply until October 1 unless further extended. Their introduction follows strong lobbying by the American Bankers Association to clamp down on short selling amid concerns that the price of their stock was being manipulated. "We are concerned about the possible unnecessary or artificial price movements based on unfounded rumors regarding the stability of financial institutions and other issuers, exacerbated by naked short selling. Our concerns, however, are no longer limited to just financial institutions," the SEC said. "In addition, we have become concerned that some persons may take advantage of issuers that have become temporarily weakened by current market conditions to engage in inappropriate short selling in the securities of such issues," it added. In regard to the few remaining Wall Street financial institutions lift, like Mogen Stanley, Goldman sacks may have fallen victim to such practices. The feds are worried and have become concerned about "sudden and unexplained" declines in the prices of securities, which could create questions about the underlying financial condition of an issuer, which in turn could create a crisis of confidence without a fundamental underlying basis. This crisis of confidence could impair the liquidity and viability of an issuer "with potentially broad market consequences". Washington Mutual and other deposit banks are in jeopardy. Other sectors still American car makers and other and related industries are all venerable to short selling techniques and the SEC is committed to stop this dangerous type of maneuvering. The real controversy over naked short selling, however, concerns price manipulation. Here the fear is that a maverick trader could spread false rumors about a company while massively shorting its stock. Such aggressive actions would allegedly push the price down, allowing the trader to reap a guaranteed profit from his self-fulfilling prophecy. The matter of 911 is still under investigation and none of the government investigating bodies -including the FBI, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and DOJ -are speaking to reporters about insider trading. Even so, suspicion of insider trading to profit from the September 11 attacks is not limited to U.S. regulators. Investigations were initiated in a number of places including Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Luxembourg, Hong Kong, Switzerland and Spain. As in the United States, all are treating these inquiries as if they were state secrets. Given all of this, at a minimum the government regulators who are conducting the secret investigations have known for some time who made the options puts on a total of 38 stocks that might reasonably be anticipated to have a sharp drop in value because of an attack similar to the 9/11 episode. The silence from the investigating camps could mean several things: Either terrorists are responsible for the puts on the listed stocks or others besides terrorists had foreknowledge of the trouble that was about to strike Wall Street or may have even contributed and used that knowledge to reap a nice financial harvest from the instability of the market place. Federal investigators are continuing to be so closed-mouthed about these stock trades, and it is clear that a much wider net has been cast, apparently looking for bigger international fish involved in dubious financial activity relating to the world stock markets. There was unusually heavy trading in airline and insurance stocks several days before September 11, 2001, which essentially bet on a drop in the worth of the stocks. The same is suspected being done on some recent failures and weakness like Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc., Morgan Stanley and others. In reference to 911 just a month after the attacks the SEC sent out a list of stocks to various securities firms around the world looking for information. Many of the same firms who failed this go round were also on that list. At that time the list included stocks of American, United, Continental, Northwest, Southwest and U.S. Airways airlines, as well as Martin, Boeing, Lockheed Martin Corp., AIG, American Express Corp, American International Group, AMR Corporation, Axe SA, Bank of America Corp, Bank of New York Corp, Bank One Corp, Cigna Group, CNA Financial, Carnival Corp, Chubb Group, John Han*** Financial Services, Hercules Inc, L-3 Communications Holdings, Inc., LTV Corporation, Marsh & McLennan Cos. Inc., MetLife, Progressive Corp., General Motors, Raytheon, W.R. Grace, Royal Caribbean Cruises, Ltd., Lone Star Technologies, American Express, the Citigroup Inc. ,Royal & Sun Alliance, Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc., Tornado Reality Trust, Morgan Stanley, Dean Witter & Co., XL Capital Ltd., and Bear Stearns.
Alternatively it could be a propaganda attempt to link short selling with "terror" [sic] in the minds of the dumbed down American people. Did they find any WMD in Iraq yet?

" Mogen Stanley, Goldman sacks" Fly, do you find this article credible? The article supposes attention to details necessary for conspiracy yet fails in the minor detail of getting the names right.
As a matter of fact, the yellow cake was shipped to Canada for nuclear fuel. But that has nothing to do with this. I asked you a question. Why would the SEC even consider such a draconian measure. I have read the transcripts of Elgindy's trial. The government convicted him, but will not allow any discussion about terrorism in the trial. Even refusing to allow his statement to a broker about the coming 3000 pt drop in the Dow, the liquidation of his only long positions for his children, and wiring of the funds to Lebanon. The date, 9/10/2001.
Of course it is. I wouldn't put it here if it wasn't credible. I've been doing this for a while. I can't talk about details, and I won't. But I've been around long enough where you better consider it. I came up with the thesis myself. Dont' forget. Dr. Bryne has, for the better part of three years been in DC lobbying these fat bastards to do the right thing. I've got my own contacts. Adn all the information comes back in a circle. We are in deep shit. On Saturday, in a discussion with an undercover type investigator who has done so much, I said, "we hypothesized for three years how this would end. This is how it ends." I've been waiting for some crazy shit to go down, bloodbath someplace, suicide someplace....... But that's not it. It s'a totally corrupt SEC doing something very drastic that they obviously wouldn't normally do that just may be the bottom. Maybe they caught it in time. I can only hope. But, We couldn't even get them to stop naked shorting, when there was a law already on the books. and they're considering a total ban? They are totally out of control. Hopefully, they know it. I've debated for a while putting this here, but I will tell you what a contact in DC told me. This was around the time of Aguirre raising hell, so that's late summer of 2006. The guy said, 'there are many enforcement type guys at the SEC who would like to step forward and do the right thing. But they're afraid of catching a bullet." Chew on that for a while. And yes. Because over three years, that contact has never been wrong. His timing is off. But I think we're days from that timing paying off. I'm making money, so this has nothing to do w/finances, but in the morning today and yesterday, I thought I was going to puke. We have the most inept government ......... Someday, you'll all know. But you better be scared shitless for yourselves and your families. We're in a horrible mess.
