Funny post, thanks.

Key phrase there, I think we're hitting some nails on some heads:

If as an individual he is
fraudulently misrepresenting a stock to induce purchases, he might be
sued successfully in tort. If, as it appears, he is charging for
investment advice he could be violating SEC or State regulations.


Being sued successfully in tort, i.e., he wronged an individual who may then sue him?

But the real point: charging for investment advice. That's the only logical difference between a Tokyo Mex and, for example, someone like me. We both post picks, but I don't charge. Once someone charges for a service, he is subject to commerce restrictions.

That being said, it would be interesting to know if he would be doing anything illegal if he did not charge.

I believe we're getting somewhere with your answer, nihil.
