The lying bastoid was doing what he was paid to do is my guess. If he wasn't then he'd be on his own. He has a similar deal to Blodget...

Remember his job was to bring investment banking deals. Word out now is the SEC is looking into SSB for giving IPO shares in exchange for investment banking business. I can't think of a single stinking reason why SSB would be so stupid to offer ME an IPO share when someone that might do business with them was in line ahead of me.

I've been TRYING to keep track of some of this crap on my web site ( suite101.com )since 1997... but nobody was too interested. I got the idea after reading David Dreman's Book ( amazon.com )that pretty much shows that analysts are clueless as a class so I was trying to figure out why keep them around other than to help brokers pimp stocks to buy and sell to churn accounts. I have been saying that since 1995 when a lady friend asked me to help her mother get away from pump and dump brokers who were churning her account.
