We need a downtick rule.

which will prohibits long buying of securities except on an down tick. To protect the investor from equity bubbles and boom/bust cycles.

 

Good idea. The letter to SEC would be appropriate. I'll sign it.

 

Would sign it as well !

 

Even better: we should shutdown the exchanges completely and build a concrete sarcophagus on top of them to protect the investors.

 

We need to protect the investors from the underlying sucking economy.

 

Also make a law where tv reporters have to have an MBA in finance and a series 7 before they can report on tv.

I would prefer a Trading Condom... Completely enclose my body head to toe especially with extra protection for the hand that clicks my mouse...

The market's been downticking all day. You guys are upset because for every downtick, there has been three upticks. You poor babies!
