Finially here is another news item that I only saw a couple of times during 911 and the aftermath....Somone or group had SHORTED TWA and United Airline stocks very heavily (many times more than the average number of Shorts) in the weeks leading up to 911.... That means someone was betting that the price of those shares was going to go down in the near term....Oh What a Lucky Guess!
Was that someone or group only betting, or did they have beforehand knowledge of the disaster that was going to occur ? That is not an answered question yet...

Tabs, you are too much man. BUT...

...and don't waste your refined opinion on a bunch of shade-tree slobs such as us, GO man! GO and spread your word on the streets of the Big Apple...

Just an observation...

People of "wealth and taste" dont generally go around advertising that they are "people of wealth and taste"

People of that status earn the moniker, whispers etc, from their peers......

Stating things like this reveal serious insecurities... and desire to be accepted....

I do agree that the US has gotten in a bit over our head in Iraq though.....

I never heard anything more about the Short sale...and I will get back to my source about the wire transfers...I know of an investor that lost a considerable amount of money...because he couldn't cover his margin account in time, because it was taking so long to do a wire transfer. The $250.00 ATM's and small transfers I believe were still up, that never shut down.

PS: The news item about the Short sale of Airline stocks before 911 is just one of many things that get reported, and then U never hear anything more about them???? This is what quasi makes me suspicious that the media is not telling everything it can about just how perlious the times are that we live in?
