      Could have been much worse without the market interventions by government and SEC etc.

      Paulson is no genius. He just made somebody pay for the crimes of the guilty few. That somebody is the many innocent folks like our fathers and mothers, and your children.

      Stop the market interventions and use of public money to pay for the crimes of financial institutions, speculators and the mismanagement of regulators.

      More interventions and manipulations of the markets prolongs the pain and delays recovery, see what happened to the mighty Japanese economic powerhouse being brought to its knees.

      Is Paulson creating the same mistake the Japanese made in their lost decade?

      The 9th lesson -- Expect more market intervention and manipulation.

      America criticize other governments for third world practices. Yet she is no different. The pot calling the kettle black.

      Could someone publish a list of market interventions, and maybe make out something useful and meaningful?

      Future generations are going to pay for it dearly.

      Do not interfere with the free market forces.
      When stocks are bullish, there was no intervention from the government departments. So why should there be intervention in a bear market ?? Let the market forces work its course.

      Getting to see more government intervention as in SEC short rule timing, protection for Freddy and Fannie, and the buying of securities by the FED.

      Instead of allowing market forces to work in free and capitalist America, I am seeing more market interventions, almost amounting to market manipulations which obviously benefited quite a few people with the insider information. The dice is loaded, and the playing field is not leveled.

      Don't be fooled. The worst is yet to be imagined.
      When stocks are oversold, naturally a technical correction follows.

      Crisis of this magnitude occurs once in 50 years, and cannot be reconciled in such a short span of time.

      Japan is quite different from the USA.

      Japan did not fight any wars in the Middle East and Afghanistan.
      Japan did not wage a global war on terror.
      Japan did not have a huge national debt.
      Japan did not have a weak currency.

      I also believe that the worst is yet to be imagined as I do not trust most business organizations and banks.

      My personal view is to avoid the falling knife.
      Unless you believe you are better than Warren Buffet.

    • The SEC's Campaign Against Naked Shorting: Misguided or Right On? [view article]
      I believe a group of people are always monitoring the total shorts in the market, and just waiting for the right moment and favorable conditions to do a short squeeze. The same applies for all the long trading positions.

      All trading positions are stored in computer databases. It would be extremely lucrative to share these databases.

      I read a post in an Australian forum on bet hedging by some CFD providers. It was mentioned the gain for their clients translates to a loss for the providers and vice versa.

      Further mentioned that the average CFD trading account is depleted within a few months.

    • What Pushed the SEC to Tighten the Rules - Now? [view article]
      Someone mentioned in another post that the Shanghai stock market is an excellent example as shorts are not allowed in this market, thus causing it to crash by more than 50 percent.

      Manipulators will push up the stock and then let it crash when you least expect. Many small investors have been massacred in this manner by the big boys.

      Short selling is a must for an efficient market. Those who ask for shorts to be banned are asking for another stock market bubble.

      They should instead buy in at the lows, and kill the shorts. A good money making opportunity from short squeezes.
