    A bit dramatic.

    I think you are PB, and if you spent time properly running your company instead of blaming everyone else for the problems - well then your shareholders would be better served.

    It is always someone/something else's fault. Who/what will be blamed now for management ineptitude?

    USA = Nazi Germany is coming very soon. And the public will (probably) have NOTHING against it. Save us save us our good government! It's all Al-Kaida, muslims, and now evil speculators fault! History repeats itself. Masses are dumb as usual.

  6. all this blanket rule will do is increase transactions costs and suck the liquidity out of the market. More trading will move overseas where there aren't silly restrictions.

    It's a sad day when European markets are more free market than the US.

    Why not drop the pretense and just institute explicit price controls?

  7. I can't think of one person for whom I have less respect. I purposely don't shop at Overstock because I can't stand pathetic, paranoid whiners whose sole purpose in life is to find a scapegoat on which to blame their failures.

    And, no, I've never shorted Overstock.

  8. Failures? $18 stock with 500m market cap. The guy has a mission and stuck to his guns. That is worthwhile. Are you so much more successful?
