Thanks for your feedback.
The thing that strikes me is the anti-capitalist or Democrat support that comes from hard core floor traders when you talk to them outside of their work.
The Floor Trader is or was the epidimy of Capitalism and by extension, human nature.
I’ve been trading securities and been deeply involved since the early 1990’s. And while many things have changed, human nature doesn’t.
I’m reminded of a great book by Mark Richie, a legendary commodities trader.
“God in the Pits”
I highly recommend it, even for those that are not traders.
I did meet Rick Santelli a few years ago in a restaurant located next to the CBOT. (Ceres') Very nice guy. Very personable and well spoken.
