RE: Carson Block: Poster boy for Wall Street's demThe only thing that will make Mr Carson Block change is a long term PERSISTENT LAWSUIT. If Block did take on a large SHORT in mid august then he did profit. Discovery will take time but it will find out who profited. On a positive note: If SVM launches a suit against "short blcoks" it will take years. The suit will also be listed as a NOTE on SVM Financial statements (I assume both QTR and Annual audited). Theis lawsuit "Note" will remind all future miscreants that SVM means business!
As bot Carson Block and/or any other "short manipulator" every time they drive their fancy car or look at their rolex, the will know that it is on borrowed time! The stress would be terrible. My grandfather told me: If you buy shoes on credit, they will squeek. Always pay cash for shoes.'
