If it were you what would you have done? If you knew a tsunami of big bad was coming and it would in all likelihood tank the market, would you sell off stocks AND not tell your constituents? If you tell people to look out you might make the market - and just daily life - tank even worse, a run even. Which is a bigger problem? Trying to quietly preserve your investments or inducing panic? I don't think I can blame them too much no matter how selfish and disgusting it looks. Even on top of how much I hate these guys to begin with. Money makes people do things.

It is called Insider Trading: the illegal practice of trading on the stock exchange to one's own advantage through having access to confidential information. It is right up there with other white collar crimes such as income tax evasion, another crime that is very seldom prosecuted in America. I KNOW Texans who commit insider trading and tax evasion. They see themselves as brave heroes, but you don't have to be brave. You only have to be a sneaky, twisty crook, which matches what the Texans I know are. It just so happens that GOP Senators and Presidents are also sneaky, twisty crooks who constantly praise capitalism and their own brilliance. Funny how the crooks I know in Texas are all rich Republicans, as were the Senators who got caught but won't be prosecuted.

Are you getting ahead by being worthless and useless to world? It just so happens that GOP Senators and Presidents are also sneaky, twisty crooks who constantly praise capitalism and their own brilliance. Funny how the crooks I know in Texas are all rich Republicans, as were the Senators who got caught but won't be prosecuted. They have to report their insider stock trading but the Justice Department, controlled by the GOP, certainly won't prosecute. Justice won't prosecute Trump's income tax evasion, either.

"Tricky" in what would you have done? Would you have bailed on the market to save yourself and your loved one's future? Or would you have done nothing and watched it melt like an ice cube in the summer sun? You can't put other people's words back in their mouth or shut your ears after they tell you, "Senator, as your financial advisor I would like to let you know that in our best estimation the market is about to free fall... you might want us to look to that." So what do you do once you hear that?

Quote:Originally posted by second: Why the Stock Market Is Healthy as Americans Die
Quote:...The stock market is simply agnostic about human happiness.
Quote:It’s just a best-guess measure of future post-tax corporate profitability.
Quote: If future post-tax corporate profitability is compatible with people being alive and having enough to eat, that’s okay.
Quote:If not, that’s likewise totally fine. We’re just not part of the equation.
Quote:Looked at through this lens, the stock market’s latest behavior is easy to understand. As Dean Baker, senior economist at the Center for Economic and Policy Research in Washington, D.C., puts it: “We should take the recent jump to mean that investors are betting that Congress and Trump just gave them lots of money.”
