Dividends Show Differences Between Financials

dividends have been raised at ACAS, which I consider to be superior to any of the stocks mentioned in the article.
and looking at stocks like LEH and AIG it is pretty obvious that dividends were raised contrary to the companies' fundamental shape just to keep/attract investors.
Go figure.

Short Sales: SEC Turns Back the Clock to 1931

The SEC ought to be abolished for this preferential treatment of wallstreet. They are banning naked short sales ON wallstreet's banks and brokers - but they are allowing any naked short BY them on any stock they desire to continue. Go figure.

Selective Enforcement: (Re)Introducing Regulation SHO

Great article. the most obvious and blatant display ever of whose interests the SEC is really protecting. The SEC ought to be abolished. the exemption reasons given in reg SHO for naked shorting may apply for a day or two. But HOW can they justify that stocks stay for months and years on Reg SHO lists? for market making purpose? sure.
it's a giant crime and a shame. The usa is more of a developing country and a banana republic type of market when it comes to create a level playing field in the stock markets.

SEC Shorting Restrictions: Are Some Banks Being Set Up?

As I pointed out elsewhere after that weird SEC-announcement: naked shorts ON Goldman get banned - but naked shorts BY Goldman do not.
This is by far the most stunning display of financial apartheid ever displayed by the sec. they should abolish that institution alltogether as it is only catering to wallstreet's needs anyway.
