Steve Cohen is a master trader. Steve Cohen is a lover of art. Steve Cohen has revolutionized the way we look at fleece. Steve Cohen is the victim of a terrorist attack. Steve Cohen is (obviously) a golfer. Steve Cohen is a king. Steve Cohen is this. Steve Cohen is that. People say a lot of things about the grand high poobah of Stamford but you know what factoid about SC never gets mentioned?
The fact that Steve Cohen is AN AMERICAN HERO. That little oversight ends tonight, aboard the USS Intrepid.
The next Navy SEAL Warrior Fund Gala Dinner will take place May 6, 2010 aboard the USS Intrepid. We are thrilled to present at the dinner, the 2010 “Navy SEAL Patriot Award” to Steven and Alexandra Cohen who embody the spirit of the Navy SEALs with their steadfast and generous support for and devotion to those who serve and sacrifice so that we may live in our great country with all the freedoms we enjoy. The evening starts with a reception at 6:30 PM followed by dinner and a program at 7:30 PM. Tables of 10: $50,000*/ $25,000*/ $15,000 (Limited Availability) and Individual Ticket: $2,500 / $1,000.
And the fun doesn’t stop there, particularly if you are a member of Team SAC Capital. In addition to tonight’s awards dinner, SC’s generosity is being rewarded in the form of four (4) Navy SEALS who will spend the summer in Stamford putting you bitches through the paces. I don’t care how much money you made Steve last month. Can you bob for 5 minutes, float for 5 minutes, swim 100 meters, bob for 2 minutes, do some forward and backward flips, swim to the bottom of the pool and retrieve an object with your teeth, return to the surface and bob five more times? With your arms and legs tied the whole time? Are you familiar with the term “cold water conditioning” AKA “surf torture”? No one is exempt. Grab a raft.

Fat, ugly, mean, greedy, backstabbing guys who couldn’t get laid without a handful or crisp $100 bills, now you can pretend to be tough guys.
@4 what?
@5 you wanna come down here and say that to my (my bodyguard’s) face?
-SC
i hear ping capital bought a table
@6 he’s going to buy all the $15,000 tables-for-ten so he can repackage them as $1,000 individual tickets. Duh.

I got that “excited/scared” feeling. Like 98% excited, 2% scared. Or maybe it’s more – It could be two – it could be 98% scared, 2% excited but that’s what makes it so intense, it’s so – confused. I can’t really figure it out.

“retrieve an object with your teeth”
“an object” =
Zamboni?
Whiteboard marker?
Head made of frozen blood?

this clearly supports long standing beliefs stevie wants his underlings to shine his dome while he trades
@11- um, penis? hello?
I would let him prospect for oil in my crevice with the lights on.

@13, ooh, that’s a good one. Human penis? With or without human still attached?

I was reading about Cohen’s trading style. Sounds like a very brilliant man. http://www.socialnews.biz/tag/Steve%2BCohen
He sure does keep a small public profile.

DUMP BOAT!
You gotta be f–kin’ kidding me.
Heard he liked men in uniform, but I always thought it was Air Force Academy plebes he was into.
Wanna hear something weird and off the run? That photo shop of Stevie was put on the body of a guy named Scott Helveston, who was a Blackwater contractor killed in Fallujah Iraq, 2004 (yeah, that dead-bodies-strung-up-incident.) He was an entrepreneurial sort (a fitness company, natch) who wound up in the middle of some dot-com stock craziness in the 90s, which led him to get involved with short-selling research and Anthony Elgindy, who became a close personal friend of his. Eventually, Anthony–who ran a really effective scambuster site at Silicon Investor–got his ass sent away for working with a crooked FBI guy to identify scams under investigation-.[On the side, he helped Demi get all dykey for her Navy Seal movie role.]
Weird.
On the lighter side: You think Stevie could do 50 sit ups in a row? I’d hold the puts on that trade myself.
“Steve Cohen is that.”
I see what you did there, you saucy minx.
50 sit-ups in 2 minutes? No way, maybe in 5 with a 20 second break in between each repetition of 10.
Doubt he could do 5 mens’ push-ups in a minute or one real pull up. He’s a wuss.
Steve’s acceptance speech at the awards banquet was classless and tacky. Instead of talking about being grateful to the men and women who protect our country (he donated money to the Warrior Fund, which helps the families of fallen Seals), he decides to spend his time ranting about how the Obama boogeyman is ruining America. The Seals in attendance were like WTF why is this guy ranting against our boss. SC’s acceptance speech was super negative and really set a bad tone for what should have been an uplifting and inspiring speech. I’m sure there’s a time to discuss financial reform but the Seals couldn’t help but laugh at the overweight plutocrat who was complaining about life being unfair.
you know one of those SEALS is going to be blown by alex garcia cohen and then asked to take patti finke cohen out with some piano wire wrapped around the throat.
