I Just Love When Financial Experts Say "5 Trillion went Up in Smoke" from the March 2000 Highs. What about all the Bankers, Brokers, and Insiders who bought Options at pennies and single-digit dollar amounts, who then sold said stock from their highs on down? I would dare to go out on a limb and say this profit from options to realized gains would fall in the Ballpark of 5 Trillion Dollars.
