LOL, not quite. Tony asks a rhetorical question in this message, “why should MM's have more advantageous rules?” which I reply to, and which you - strangely! - didn’t choose to include. Hmmm.
But, of course - you merely forgot to include my interim message, right?
You didn't purposely omit it to try to obscure the content of the conversation, right?
Folks, this is the next message in the series:

What’s the surprise? If you read through these messages, you’ll find nothing but a discussion, which does not, in any way, contradict anything I’ve said.

Furthermore, during this discussion - which you chose to cite, choosing to do so by misrepresenting the actual context of the conversation - I posted this:
I believe that they key to a competitive, functional, and fair dealer market in NASDAQ is found somewhere between both providing some advantages to firms that actually make markets AND penalizing or barring from market making those who do not[.]
Which is consistent with these excerpts from last weekend:
Message 15216454
“Indeed, it would equally ridiculous to assert that there are no manipulative or off-color actions undertaken on Wall Street. I tell anyone who asks me, though (and some who don't, truth be told) that places where far more reform is needed than on securities trading desks are on security analysts' desks and in the registration, supervision, and disciplining of stockbrokers and the retail firms that employ them as their primary business. Yes; there are places where reform is certainly required, but all too often trading is entirely misunderstood.”
Message 15216689
“Manipulation exists, but it does not "permeate" market centers or stock exchanges in any sense. Wrongdoing indeed occurs on Wall Street, as it does in doctor’s offices, behind police stations, in supermarkets and in churches.”
Where is the sudden, “surprise” agreement with any point that you maintain I’d previously objected to that you seek to illustrate?
“these posts to and by lps5 run contraire to some of lps5's statements”
Where others’ posts “run...contraire” to mine, they are called differences of opinion. They make for great conversation, reflection, and - at times - a change of heart.
Show me where one of my posts “run[s] contra[ry] to...[any]...of [my] statements.” |
