    Guess more will surface.. lesson learned here is always invest in reputable and good companies. Not one that is driven up by so called hedge funds and manipulate the market. No easy money out there just sharks. Trade wisely and not follow the herd ?

    Maybe staying away from the stock market is a wise decision after all. Hard to have confidence considering how rigged the whole game is.

    Banks and brokers always come out creative products to satisfy their greedy profit targets...there are many hidden things you may not be aware until a case like this happens. So avoid all the leveraged derivative products. The old school of investing is: identify opportunity, buy for long, and hold for enough time to reap rewards.

      CFDs are margin trading, DLCs are levergaed trading, shorting, options, etc all of them are financial trafing products, they are not investing proper.

      unfortunately people are conditioned to fast and big gains. 100-1000+% gains in just months. Those of us that still invest, hold for decades are called outdated. Unfortunate truth.

    This is gambling. Unfortunately, the greed of the banks had brought them to such exposure.

    This is really gambling. Big banks such as credit suisse, Goldman Sachs are really greedy. Basically their are breaking the rules by playing between the gray areas, this is non compliance. Is 2008 crisis already history repeated itself? For years, Banks and hedge funds are destroying the financial market!

      Most of this is gambling in nature. But this is too extreme.
