RE: Chinese delivery guy demanding cash up front.... maybe he should also bring job applications with him. Hell, he's probably a former Bear employee.

You can drop boulders in the river, but the water will just flow around. Why do they even try...?

Are you implying that speculation has NOTHING to do with this runup in oil? Has some massive supply/demand dynamic changed in the last few days to warrant +/-15% selloff?? Shows what trillions of levered dollars chasing momentum can do....

I never said there's anything wrong with speculation. Just that it clearly exists. Most of us wouldn't be getting paychecks if this behavior didn't exist. We all suck from the same tit of capitalism...

Yes, Spitzer is an asshole. And yes, this may have been a bit of a witchhunt. BUT... the specialists used to be real crooks / thugs. Let's not waste too much time sticking up for them. Back in the 80's, these guys were some of the biggest criminals on the street.

E-mailing sensitive information to outside e-mail?!?! That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.... (aside from Thain talking about the financial health of Merrill over the past several months).

I think there's an Applebees (and a Cheesecake Factory?) in Times Square. Where else would the B&T eat when they come into the city. They would starve.

Bess & JC,
Please, for the love of all that is holy, can you please ban the 3rd grader from the site (ie, eating poop and mayo comments). Funny for a bit, but getting annoying. Everybody else, please don't yell at me for encouraging the juvenile (or recent fin'l layoff). It's clear he/she/it isn't stopping.
Kind Regards,
Johnny

I know the WM is old news already, but when a stock pops 20% (for any reason) there will ALWAYS be people looking to short it, buy puts, etc. Why the confusion?
