And to anyone who would complain about the dealers' ability to short issues nakedly, well, that's how it goes. It's just this simple: if you want the dealer to be on the other side of your trade and put his firms' capital at risk, you can't also tie his/her hands. Incidentally, these same people will complain - at times, in the same breath! - about wide spreads and volatile stocks ;)
I doubt the chorus of conspiracy central would ever allow a rational thought to enter their mind, as Janice points out:
All they are interested in is in their one home run without the effort to educate and/or risk management.
"Just because" is their justification, they DEMAND they should make a killing, nothing else.
general origin of conspiracy theories arise out of the erroneous presumption that what market makers/dealers do is a service, and not in fact what it is: a business. I attribute much of the message board banter to that sad, and common, misconception.
In their eyes, the conspiracy theorist return of 1,000% or more is all it counts, anything else short of that...
It is not their fault.
Thanks for your response. |
