Do Reporters Frontrun for Hedgies????

Discussion in 'Wall St. News' started by flytiger, Dec 16, 2008.

  1. This isn't about socialism. This is about obeying the law. Because now, the argument is, what has happened shows free market capitalism failed.

    What failed was, regulation. What failed was, the political system. What failed was, the elite. They have given the left tremendous arguments to socialize the economy. It took great doing but we are there.

    We need to clean this mess up pronto. Or we'll be seeing a socialized doctor and living in communes.

    The good news is, watch this thread. Remarkable reading right around the corner.
    CNBC will have trouble getting guest hosts on squawk box.

  2. Not about power to the peephole.

    It's about not allowing scumbags to steal with impunity and behind the facade of the free market.

    It's only free if I don't have to pay.

    Seems I'm doing a lot of paying these days.

    So wake up and stop living in 1998

  3. “tell spyro, bloomberg was taken care of, and he will receive payment.”

    Amazing thing. I remember from the Elgindy transcripts, "great use of our funds, Tony, buying that Bloomberg article". All Documented. All facts.

    MI4’s effort to secure inside information is ramped up significantly in May of 2006. (isn't that illegal)

    This is an FBI magnet if I've ever seen one. Gee. I wonder if they 've seen the blog? LOL. Merry Christmas 777. This one was for you.

    Contogouris, posing as a reporter, gained illegal access to the back offices

    For Boyd’s part, that’s simple: as documents unsealed in the Fairfax case reveal, which I will be examining here shortly, Roddy writes what certain short-selling hedge funds tell him to write.

    Yes, friends, dirtbags,........it's all true. And you are about to read about the BIGGEST names in the business. The BIGGEST, who trump their performance while traders here struggle, who call themselves geniuses, who have Joe Kernan rub butter on their ass.......you are about to find out it is all reporters, inside information, extortion, corruption of the highest degree. Merry Christmas. It was for me when I found this in my inbox.

    :D :D :D

    Postscript: Even knowing what I know, this stuff still shocks me. Unbelievable. These people had to be raised by wolves.

  4. I'm with you. What happened to "caveat emptor"?

    Anyone with a speck of gray matter knows enough not to walk through a crime infested neighborhood with a fat wallet unarmed. Yet that same person takes a stroll down wall street and parts with their money to the first suit that asks. WTF?

    Loss can be attributed to ignorance, bad choices or just plain laziness.

    The SEC Finra sipc or whatever acronym the gov't can generate to "save us", spare me.

  5. So, based on this logic, if you wish to walk down the street, and you get mugged, the mugger is innocent. It is his constitutional right to mug you?

    I just dont' understand your illogical logic. And FFH is real. If you thought it was a shit company, you'd say, 'well, it's a shit company. These people breaking federal securities law are doing us a favor."

    No, you don't get it both ways. I mean, you may get it 'both ways', but not from me, here, now. These are federal crimes. Let me ask you, how would you like to be targeted, and have someone, an indicted criminal in this case, have that personal information so clearly outlined int the blog?

    You haven't a leg to stand on.

  6. new emails about to be released. Maybe tonight. I'm expecting the names to just get bigger, and bigger.

    Maybe we can end this charade of Ct. residents who say they can return 40 and 50%. Because they can't.

  7. heypa

    heypa

    I have long maintained that all financial news/data should be considered to have the black advertisement band around it if written. If spoken should be considered clever fiction.
    Nothing is ever disclosed without a reason behind it. It is disclosed with purpose.
    We are sheeple that must be separated from our money.
    Thank you Flytiger for yet another exposure.

  8. Hey. Thank you for thinking. It seems to be a rarity these days. I was telling Mitchell that, after Judd's last piece, you'd have thought that the world would have stopped until the bottom of this morass was found. I guess it'll take more. That's the bad news.

    The good is, we have it. I want Joe Kernan's hide for lapdogging those bastards. What a disgrace he is. An utter disgrace. All that behavior does is lengthen the scam. If he had been critical to the smallest degree........."

    "Well, gee, (pick a name), isn't it impossible to return 40% year after year with an expanding capital base? How do you do it? And no, don't tell me you're smarter than the other guys. Give me details."

    They are details you are about to read.

  9. Hey, I've been referring to these guys as HEDGE FUND SCUM for some time. I also have a 9" jones for REAL ESTATE SCUM.


    Haven't been wrong yet about any of it , and that was just from the STENCH wafting up from the tracks they left behind.

    Those that KNEW for a fact what was going on and did nothing should be impoverished and imprisoned.

    For those of you that can read more than 2 sentences at a time , here's more proof of concept, where the lowlifes at WAMU perpetrated a fraud making Madoff look like a pickpocket. The asswipe that ran WAMU collected 100 million in compensation. That every cent has not already been recaptured and his head displayed on a stick is testimony to the wimpyness of the bastards that run things.

    Soon the double dealing frontrunning hedgies will be outed.

    NY Times article that details the WAMU fraud.
