9/1     Finance question: How do 'after-hours' trades work?  Is someone running
        a secondary market?  Is that legal?  Why not leave the market open 24/7
        since computers actually execute the trades?
        \_ People who know how markets work don't read motd.
           \_ I bought 5,000 shares of Pepsi last year on advice from the wall.
              That's where it's at, baby!

7[31    Suppose you have a few hundred thousand dollars in the bank earning
        minimum interest rate and you're not sure whether you're going to
        buy a house in 1-5 years. Should one put that money in a more
        risky place like Vanguard ETFs and index funds, given that the
        horizon is only 1-5 years?

9/21    I'd like to run a test algorithm on the stock market. Where's a
        good source to get stock market price (minute-per-minute resolution)
        from?
        I've been away procreating. Looks like wall is no more. Where have all of
        the old-timers gone to chat/argue/share? How are we all communicating these
        days. Sorry for the ignorant questions. :( -- joeking

10/24  Another stock question. If 70% of the trades out there are bot
       high frequency traded, then what is the point of those Moody ratings?
       Is that to tailer for the other human trades?
       \_ If you have been in a poker game for a while, and you still don't
          know who the patsy is, you're the patsy.

8/7     Can one of you stock market gurus explain the impact of the
        S&P downgrade to AA+? What would this mean for bonds and stock
        market in general?
