    it's interesting how the Feds go after Martha Stewart and leave poisonous slithering snakes like these running around. People like these are destructive to good democracy and capitalism.

  3. Byrne says he believes White Papers are floating around where the manipulators tell the bad guys where to go. I'm not going to spin something I know. They don't do the job.

    Look at the Sedona post I made. They had a board member who was an SEC commish way back in 1960. These are the problems.
    They are horrendous.

    William Donaldson, Chair of the SEC. Founder of, of all firms, Pershing? Shee.

    They do let scum run. And one agency blames it on the rest. That's why we are going to the States.

    I love a good conspiracy theory as much as the next guy but what you miss is that the market is bigger than anyone, and any cabal.

    There are billions of capital run by value managers who slobber over themselves when they see an underpriced asset. They'll even take it private if they can and bring it back down the road.

    The fact that none of them antied up when CALM crashed through support at $10 shows you this thing is a dog fundamentally.

    You can cry wolf all you want, your theories just don't make sense. Good companies that are throwing off cashflow and have a positive future will not get ground down in the long run in the market.

    btw I know Henry, he's a nice guy but not exactly the brightest bulb on the chandelier.
