Matt, I imagine there are quite a few of us financial
professionals on here (would be interesting to know how many
of us have CRD numbers, etc.). I personally love
hearing different viewpoints on markets and strategies. It's
synergistic with my analysis and is the reason I've been with you
for so many years. It's a similar reason that I prefer Fast
Money over Mad Money. Mad Money lacks the synergy of competing
ideas/opinions (like you get with BPT during the day). In Fast
Money you get a panel of people that very often disagree with each
other. Whereas, Cramer doesn't have anyone punching back at him on
Mad Money when he has a hair brained investment thesis (not a rare
occurrence for him).
we do overall have rules for the community that used to be
listed on the old website in a 'Blog Rules' area, such as no strong
political posts, no harassing others, and no advertising other
websites, which we almost never enforce - but in the past I have
had 3 - 5 people start their own website here, then use this place
to get a bunch of subscribers to their site that I had to battle
with. I've also had other sites post here anonymously and
post links to their site - it's generally why I don't like posting
competing websites.
yes there's an amalgamation here: a lot of individual traders,
and a lot of professionals such as brokers, RIA's, some hedge fund
guys, working professionals, doctors, lawyers, folks from New
Zealand and Aussi, England, Germany, Canada. retirees, some
students in college etc, all walks of life
Matt, I imagine there are
Key Takeaways Mark Newton SPX and NASDAQ now are arguably both ...

CFP designation was accepted instead

CFP designation was accepted instead of the 65 when I was forming my RIA....so I have had nothing but that all these years.
