I don't see how you really build an insider trading case when the accusation is that she used her insider information to lose money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His sin was being very lightly, ever so gently for a not hackish investigation into the Russia thing.

It is my understanding that insider trading doesn’t require a particular outcome, only that you made moves based on information not available to the public. It is just that we don’t typically punish people who make bad trades with insider information because they’ve been punished enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my company has been kind enough to understand there may be a small drop in productivity due to having to split time with taking care if the kids. My wife hasn't been nearly as easy. She's been moved to telehealth work and she's expected to 100% dedicate herself to 3-5 hours of uninterrupted video work. If I were stuck going into the office, one of us would be out of a job.

Signifyin(g)Monkey Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 On 5/28/2020 at 7:42 AM, CitizenVectron said: This is all about the ‘comeback’ narrative. The Atlanta Fed estimates a *40%* contraction in GDP. However, the stock market is sensing a recovery—it’s showing up not just in the S&P alone, but in more reliable indicators like the relative performance of the Russel 2000 small cap index vs the S&P. IMO, This means we’re likely to see a big ‘bounce back’ number in Q3, like maybe along the lines of 20-30%. It’ll be hailed as a ‘record’ performance by Trump, even though it won’t even recover all the ground that was lost—and I won’t be surprised if people buy the hype.

PaladinSolo Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Don't worry "Main street" sized businesses with UP TO 15,000 employees, and UNDER 5 billion in revenue, you're about to be SAVED!!!! https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/29/powell-says-the-fed-is-days-away-from-making-the-first-loans-in-the-main-street-lending-facility.html Quote Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said the central bank’s long-awaited program to lend to small- and medium-sized businesses is about to get off the ground. The Main Street lending facility, which will target companies with up to 15,000 employees, is likely “days away” from making its first loan, Powell told Princeton University economist and former Fed official Alan Blinder in a webinar interview Friday. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 St Louis Fed Economist: Negative interest rates could be needed for a ‘V’ recovery Quote Getting the U.S. economy back to strong growth could require negative interest rates, according to a St. Louis Federal Reserve economist. As many economists dismiss the likelihood of the current record-breaking slump being followed by an equally aggressive recovery, central bank economist Yi Wen said in a paper on the St. Louis Fed’s website that achieving that kind of a rebound is necessary and possible. The key, he said, is using aggressive stimulus even beyond what authorities deployed during the financial crisis, and that could include taking interest rates below zero.
