Humor....and how the big boy's do it. A recent headline in a local paper. china.com reaps $5.1M windfall on brokers slip-up Brokers recently inadvertently sold all of china.com's stake in TFSM. They had intended to sell only part of their 3% holding, said David Kim of china.com. The stock then fell 20% in the next 3 days. They then bought back the shares they wanted to keep, pocketing a profit of $5.1M. The share sale and the subsequent buy-back resulted in a net profit in that quarter of $1.9M instead of a loss. If we could all be so lucky!
