"Martha Stewart goes public and makes $1 billion in a day, and all she does is CARVE PUMPKINS," Hamre said. "The current system seems to penalize stable companies who don't register 15 or 30 percent growth in six months. Four to 6 percent isn't enough anymore."...

Well they get more than what they prayed for!! It is about time that some one should tell the truth.

Weak defense industry??? - the results were obvious in Kosovo.

Unfortunate the guy is right but who cares about security or defense, for sure not a guy that avoided the draft by fleeing the country.

Online Trading Volumes Fall - Survey
news.excite.com

MINNEAPOLIS (Reuters) - The online stock trading industry suffered its first quarter-to-quarter decline in trading volumes in the third quarter, as average online trades per day fell 7.8 percent compared with the second quarter, according to investment bank U.S Bancorp Piper Jaffray.

In a survey released Thursday, the firm said, however, that the online brokerage business continued to add new accounts. Some 1.1 million new traders signed up, increasing accounts by 11.5 percent compared to the previous quarter.

"The online brokerage industry finally showed that it is not immune to the seasonal slowdown of the overall market, as trading volumes fell for the first time ever," the firm's senior research analyst of electronic commerce, Stephen Franco, said in the report. Trading volumes on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq were both down 2 percent in the quarter.

"Nonetheless with 1.1 million new accounts added in the September quarter and an improved outlook for trading activity heading into the busiest season, we believe this quarter will prove to be a brief respite on the way to a continued growth trajectory," he added.
