Yep.

If you don't take part you don't get manipulated.

More rule nose thumbing I see. Not that I mind. At least if I got away with it like you do.

Are we using the secret decoder ring from the cap'tn crunch box for these messages? There seems to be some code here. :noid

MU is the perfect example of screwing over retail shareholders. Find me another stock with a 12 EPS, a 7 forward PE, increased dividends, and debt buy back. For it to drop almost $100 in a week. Just absolutely irreprehensible what the hedge funds are doing to people. Needs be SEC investigation asap.

In the short term sure. If you are on the inside you can make a fortune trading vol especially. If you pay attention to what is going on you are much less likely to fall for it. There is a reason why congress won't outlaw insider trading for themselves but do it for others. Turns out power is money and all that sponsorship of politicians happens because it pays. It has been that way for ever and will be that way. That is why larger governments are always increasingly corrupt.

I find that TDS thing kinda odd. It seems to affect people on both sides but with drastically different symptoms. Could be there's two different versions of the decoder ring, maybe they added a Lucky Charms version.

It turns out those cereals are advertised on different channels with well crafted ads so some people watch some channels and tend to buy one flavor with one version of the ring and others watch other well crafted ads on different channels and buy other flavors with different versions. If you take a step back you realize it's all pretty much the same thing and equally unhealthy and chose more healthy meal options.

Turns out some people really like their flavor of cereal and are convinced their decoder ring is the only one that works thus everyone else can't discuss current events without the cereal people using their decoder rings to have super biased versions of reality and getting most threads locked an an anti decoder ring forum.

I mean, sure. No one is forcing anyone to be here. If you didn't like your job, would you get a new one? If you didn't like your significant other, would you break up? If you didn't like where you lived, would you move?

Who manipulated the stock market? Who started the war?
If a thread about the stock market was purely analytical and about numbers, it would probably be fine. But all YOU want to do is talk about politics, when it isn't allowed. The majority of your threads/topics are political or politically charged. I'm sure you aren't a total idiot, so don't try to play it off like you are confused why these threads are getting locked.

Gains are down to 60% from 90% so we'll use the term "losing" lightly. However its still going to hit 700+ whether they like it or not because the share is a much more valuable now and it almost tripled its net income and will almost double it on its next Q earnings.

Come on, "market manipulation" is probably the subject of every other post on bluesky. No one is fooled.

When you put your bias in the subject line you don't get to feign innocence. Maybe something like "The Market Today" and you could deny political bias.

We'll see.
There will a different DOJ at some point.
Memories are long and money leaves a trail.
BTW, I'm not saying who it is. It could be some one in Congress that was briefed.
But someone with prior inside knowledge placed a very large bet on polymarket less that 24 hours before TACO.

Hey that's no problem. There is a quiet dude in a black hoofed cloak that often carries a scythe. He looms close when you get near 80.

You're assuming who did it, and you want him to get away with it.
I'm not assuming who did it, but who ever it is, needs to be hunted down like a dog.
It could be him, or his slithering scion. But Congress has had plenty of problems with this too. It could have been someone who had received a briefing. It could have been someone with inside knowledge in the military.
Corruption shouldn't be cheered on as a partisan win. Who ever did it needs to get got.
The offices people are entrusted with shouldn't merely be used as a tool for personal enrichment.
An operation getting our servicemen killed shouldn't just be a cheap ATM.

Something tells me it won't be the last time as it seems way to easy to do without any penalty for such illegal corrupt actions...
Sad part some seem to be ok with anything as long as it's "their side " that does it...bizarre really..

Do you think if is fine for people in entrusted positions privy to inside information of policy swings to use that information for personal gain?
In my world view, that is not acceptable behavior.

These folks must be in incredible shape due to the gymnastics they have to do in order to only support things when it fits their narrative. Can you imagine the wall to wall Fox Entertainment coverage if the 'other side' did any of the things that have happened over the last year or so?
-
Remember when they lost their minds when 44 made 4 million on speeches?
Remember when they lost their minds when 46 ACCUSED (never proven) made 20 million from from foreign sources, including China and Ukraine?
Complete utter crickets that 47 family made (proven) 4 BILLION in his first year. Absolute silence
Ya don’t have to imagine, its real life. Nothing they say is valid. Biggest hypocrites possible, on mind blowing scale. They are 100% full of crap. Ya can’t take these people serious, ever.

If you see this as political, you miss the point.
Both parties do this, and in Congress it's rampant.
We all lose when our government and markets are manipulated for personal profit.
Whoever it was of any party should be hunted down without mercy no matter how long it takes and prosecuted to the fullest possible limit of the law.
Examples should be made of this kind of behavior.

Sure seems like we are the only ones getting muted for politics right. They can make slights and faints all day but when you defend then we are the ones who get muted. Funny how that works.

I think the very large majority of general citizens on every political side feels likewise.
Congress is majority in favor, though, and so it remains legal for them.

It's terribly bad to just shrug off.
Let's put aside the moral and character questions,
If our enemies know they can guess our intentions by watching the betting markets because they know we have those that just couldn't help themselves, is that a good thing?
If you've placed very large bets on what you thought was inside information and things start to drift from your wager, are you now going to be tempted to steer things back to what you would profit from? With lots of personal money on the line you don't think that people in power will start not just investing based on knowledge, but to use power to steer events that best server their investments?

Would it be earth shattering if "public servants" actually worked to serve the interests of the public some day?

Would you like to be a public servant? With people prying into not only your own childhood, but that of your wife, your children, and all of their relatives? With a public expectation that you have never made a serious mistake? With the internet ability to track down everything you've ever said?
After I practiced law for a few years, I told my wife that there are people out there - many people - that she would never be able to understand. Those people have different values, different goals, different upbringings. As an extreme example, most people will never be able to understand a serial killer's mind. Broaden that inquiry: There are a lot of people you will never understand.
I have known a few politicians in my time. They are not like you or me. They don't mind exposing their families to that sort of scrutiny. Probably that was different 250 years ago. But now, the public expects perfection.
You wouldn't want to do it. I don't want to do it. I doubt that most of the people on these boards would want to be public servants. So please give a break to the people who are willing to do that.

We are of like mind on this one.
Some of my state's Congressmen (Senator Marsha Blackburn, Congressman Tim Burchett, for example) have been pushing for and sponsoring bills for its elimination. I strongly support that.
If you've placed very large bets
It is a blatant source of conflict of interest. It is one of the many parts of the loathsome giant political grift machine.

In The Republic, Plato suggests that true leaders should be motivated by a sense of duty, not by ambition, greed, or the desire for control. He argued that anyone who actively seeks power is likely to be corrupted by it, while those who are reluctant to wield it are more likely to govern with wisdom, justice, and selflessness.
I believe the electorate has the right to demand integrity and ethics... and the congress should be expected to enforce it.

Well in America, congress positions were never meant to be full time careers with forever long retirement funds after 5 years, and their salaries were relatively low to prevent that. It was merely their duty to sacrifice their time for the betterment of the country and not for their own personal gain. Our government now is basically controlled by NGOs and interest groups, and if you dont have money to begin with. You have to kiss some butt to get it, not from individuals, but from mega donors who have their own agendas. But let's face it. Insider trading is a perfect example of Congress isnt holier than thou on every decision because they are voting for their donors agenda, not the peoples, and they will leak information to those donors which could put certain operations at risk. Further, a group of individuals with the same overall agenda thats been carefully crafted by those interest groups over decades to appear partisan, but really all pushing the same NGO interest. Isnt any different than a single person doing the same thing.

We should all keep in mind they are human. However given the power over our lives they can wield, they have to be held to the highest standard.
The trend over the decades hasn't been that we've been too mean to these poor politicians. The trend is that we've lowered our standards more and more, NOT hold our leaders to the same standards we would hold our military leaders.
When the other side act illegally is it horrendous, their side however, never never never never does anything wrong. Their leader can never be held accountable for anything ever, or else that is their "side" losing and the other "side" winning.
We elect people we would never invite for dinner in our homes or want to date our sister. or buy a used car from... Yet we hand the the keys to the military and the nuclear codes.
Bottom line is that you can not have a civil society any better than the basic moral character of its leaders. Decide what kind of country you want to live in.

I've always thought the same thing about cops. The ones who really really really want to do that probably shouldn't be allowed.

That's false. I only respond to peoples posts and comments in an aggressive way directly if they insult me. I only quote and respond to ill informed political comments. Never starting politcal threads or starting posts about politics. I alwaya merely counter. You can go back and review my post history. Further, I actually play the game and comment in many other areas of the forums, unlike most of you, including Eviscerate whose 99% of comments are political in nature and is just here for politics. Also, you should learn history and understand the dangers of communism and how its crept into America. No coincidence the party of physical slavery is now the party of mental slavery who promotes communist ideas and tactics. Time for you guys to get a grip. 47 is only here because of 70 years of corruption that has been allowed and believe me I enjoy every day watching all the Rhinos and donkeys cry watching their syndicate all get exposed and dismantled after what they've done to America.

"Our Constitution was designed to govern a moral and religious people, and is wholly unsuited to govern any other".
The vast majority of the nation is neither moral nor religious, and most of the rest are lazy and apathetic, not to mention just plain stupid. Everyone is getting the government that most deserve.
"Democracy, the theory that the people know what they want, and deserve to get it, good and hard." Which is why they designed a Constitution based representative Republic, that is devolving into a "democracy", because stupid people believe that to be what they "want".
You ain't getting Franklin, Jefferson, Adams, Madison, or Hamilton anymore, because stupid, lazy, immoral people want politicians to steal for them. Not because those people do not exist, or are unwilling to serve.

Sorry, but baseless conspiracies are NOT being informed, it’s the opposite. Some of your comments come off as least informed.
Luv ya in all other aspects, but you are far from sounding informed. You’re informed with grifting BS deflection cons.
Obviously, what you supported nosed dived into epic failure and you’re (Edit) NOT willing to accept that reality. Denial will not change that, it just puts off dealing with it. Sooner or later reality will catch up
