< If 80% of these guys you are talking about make 100% per year, why doesn't Fidelity hire some of these geniuses and beat the S&P for once?> All the big houses were involved on the exchanges in the past and puked out their operations in the downturn....another thing your forgetting is that they couldnt do this for the reason that Soros cant make numbers like 100% any more (HE CERTAINLY HAS IN THE PAST!) Their pile of money is too big....I'm saying that most decent traders on any exchange is trying to (and the past couple years most have) more than double their money....if they had 100 mill they couldnt do it anymore!!! Just like Soros, maybe Fidelity for that matter.... interesting you bring them up: Their asset base is too big. Look there are tons of traders making great livings....if they arent comming close to doubling the capital they use they are OUT...OUT of Soly, OUT of Morgan, OUT of any trading group... DAK
