Were any laws broken? If so then round up the culprits, put them on trial and if guilty lock them up. If not then move along and quit the whining because someone played the game according to the rules and won.

People who are to stupid to understand the risks inherent in the markets and then whine when they lose money REALLY piss me off! Bottom line is don’t bet more then you can afford to lose and when you lose just suck it up and take it like a pro.

Huh? Didn’t know it was possible to ‘short’ an IPO. Live & learn, I guess!

Drudge seemed focused on how bad the stock was performing. I wonder if he was in on this as well.

I wonder how many congresscritters were in on this and how much money was involved.

Wouldn’t it be amusing if they lost their a$$e$? Would they be screaming for new regulations to prevent this?
