  1. My "redact" comments were made for Matt. I mistakenly quoted you. Apologies.

  2. happy to oblige sir, right after you demonstrate where I "redacted", where I talk in "sweeping generalities" , "reverse".

    Your problem is that you can't focus on facts but need to get personal. If you see someone is stubborn and does not yield your opinion you can't let go. I am not sure this is a better bad trait than the traits you accuse others of. Enough said!!!

  3. Oops. A little too quick on the draw... and please provide those links, thanks. Matt comes back after the discussion stalls to hit it from another obtuse angle.

    You must workout.

  8. Ahh sure, colleague. Kollege is a new one for me, makes me think of undergrad. Mate just strikes me as anglo-pretension. No harm done.

  9. Sorry I didn't cancel all my meetings to be on here all day everyday. I would love for you to point of specifically what you disagree with in my argument that futures transactions lead to capital creation (options transactions go through essentially the same process but futures are simpler to discuss and understand than options, there are fewer variables and the mathematics are less complex).

    Here is the flowchart of cause and effect of someone buying a stock futures contract:

    stock futures purchase -> increased bid price of stock futures -> arbitrators buy underlying stock and sell futures -> increased bid price of stock -> investor decides to invest money in IPO rather than this stock due to its higher bid price -> capital creation

    Again please try respond without any sound effects, personal insults or comments about how much money either of us make. I just want to know what step or steps you disagree with here and why.

  10. I love you Matt. You are nothing if not entertaining. My apologies to you as well for calling your anon handle an idiot. I will try to avoid the ad homs. I know a guy named Matt, and if you're him... I apologize twice!
