LOL, except anyone has been around wall street for ANY time knows 2 & 3 are WAY correct. Sorry.

Don't be sorry, you just proved I was justified in making the original statement. The fact that you happen to be one of the minority who has made money in the market in the last few years as opposed to the majority who has lost their a$$ only means you aren't unhappy and bitter enough about the way you perceive things to be to start wanting to blame insiders. But I assure you, there are plenty of people out there who are. That was my main point. The journalist ignored the facts to tell people what they wanted to hear.

The fact that insiders also perceive there is an advantage to being in the know is what gets them into trouble. Figure out the return those insiders got on those trades when you now have to factor in the lawyers fees, fines and sleepless nights....well you get my drift. They don't always come out ahead. The market has a way of taking it all back.
