RE:RE:RE:RE:We hav RICO .You may have missed the sarcasm in my post Tannin. My meaning was that the system is operating exactly how it has been designed to - it's been captured by the houses. The people they place into the regulatory positions have one primary purpose and that is not to look out for the interests of small companies or retail investors. They make sure the rules are aligned with institutional interests. I do still invest in some pennies I don't generally trade though.
