Financial Terrorism?

This one deserves a new thread.

Specially because even if this is not the case, that could be the case (eventually?)

Also, banning short sellers to hault the crisis? Banning short sellers throughout the world with The big-daddy Dow only 25% off highs?

I did not consider that in my wildest dreams, but on second thought, why not? What do they know that we don't?

Following Cramer on this matter

*** Children warning: (Keep it to the SUBJECT. If you want to trash Cramer, start your own thread - I'm just giving the words as I've received)

The damage being done to stocks through short selling, where Wall Street’s most legendary institutions are losing value at alarming rates, could be the work of financial terrorism.Cramer’s been talking to the short sellers he knows, and that’s the theory they’ve been putting forward. His sources said that it’s doubtful that the market’s traditional short sellers are behind the negative action we’ve seen lately. So there is the possibility that someone else has been trying to wreak havoc in the markets rather than just profit from the problems of Goldman Sachs,Morgan Stanley and othersCramer, who was merely relaying what he heard, did say that, given the fact that the U.S. is in a “financial nationally emergency,” the “financial terrorism thing, to me, has to be put on the table just because the regular short sellers are not doing this.” The Mad Money host urged the U.K.’s Financial Services Authority, which just banned short selling in financial stocks and now requires stricter disclosure from short sellers, to find out who’s on the other side of these trades.

Cramer’s against the outright banning of short selling, unless the threat of financial terrorism is real. He applauded New York State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo for launching a probe into illegal short-selling practices, but said, “You can’t ban the stuff. That’s wrong.”“Just bring back the old rules,” Cramer said. “They worked for a long time.”

Well.. talking about the devil...

Never thought about it that way........

I do like the idea of knowing who is behind the trade.

HOLLA
