INVESTIGATE THE INVESTORS

Another, Better Way of Looking at This Market

Why is that every other commentator on here wants to toot their own horn about how prescient they were about the current state of the market? I know it is getting absurd when someone who got the market wrong by 30% claims that they had perfect foresight!

Don't Be Scammed by Madoff Investor Sob Stories

How about investigating these investors, instead of bailing them out?? Do you mean to tell me that sophisticated investors with $100mm plus under Madoff's management did not have a clue that something was awry with Madoff's investment scheme? I don't buy the "I was completely blindsided" argument. Especially for the big wheels who claimed to be close friends with Madoff and his "innocent" clan. The notion that the US taxpayers would be asked to bail out investors that may have been co-conspirators is appalling. Investigate!

Madoff Scandal: 'Biggest Story of the Year'

I am not sick to my stomach for these "innocent" people. Henry Blodget said it best when he noted tht many of Madoff's invstors knew that something illegal was happening but simply didn't care because they thought it was insider trading rather than a ponzi scheme. These investors better be prepared to return their ill-gotten gains received over the past several years. "I didn't know" is not a defense in a situation where money from new investors was distributed to older investors....they must give it back. That will be the cherry on top for these "unsuspecting" older investors.

Are Equities about to Come Back into Favor?

You should do an article on how many times Abby Joseph Cohen has been horribly wrong on her market calls over the past 10 years. Hey Abby...guess what...the S&P is where it was 10 years ago! Gee..is she still GS's chief market startegist??

Similarities to U.S. 1937, Japan 1998

nope...first time...but it's obvious as I said

Similarities to U.S. 1937, Japan 1998

The solution to the problem is obvious. All regulated lenders must be forced to loan a certain percentage of their reserved capital, or face liquidation or de-licensing. Each month lenders should be required to report loan volume to central banks. Lenders that don't mean minimum loan requirements will be sold to the lenders that are complying.
