You know,
they say,
the one thing,
that is different,
this time,
is the interest rates,
and I say yeah,
I guess so,
but I don't know,
I don't think that's the entire secret,
I don?t think that's the entire key,
I think it's about,
Margin,
and buying power,
and huge concentrated bets,
and not wanting to let people,
know what it's really about,
because they tried to kill it,
with the IPO's,
and they tried to kill it,
with the unlocking of shares,
and they tried to kill it,
with increasing margin requirements,
they tried to kill it,
all different ways,
but the huge concentrated bets,
in a select few stocks,
and increased buying power,
as those stocks rise,
with more,
huge concentrated bets,
they just couldn't stop that,
they just couldn't control that,
and I can't say I blame them,
when I hear them talking about,
wanting to raise margin requirements,
I can't say I blame them,
from their perspective,
but they created the MARGIN MONSTER,
that is their gravy,
that is their ultimate LEVERAGE HAMMER,
that is all they can?t control,
if the public,
and the daytraders,
and the retail dudes,
want to make HUGE CONCENTRATED BETS,
and increase those bets,
as the MARGIN BUYING power increases,
that's the way it's done,
that's what builds NEW millionaires,
that's what kills NEW millionaires,
that's the ultimate source of winning the game,
if it can be managed,,,,,
