Voting Question: I was thinking about giving up on my poetry…I want Your opinion.?
(I have always loved writing poetry and getting more into spoken word but at this moment I am going through changes and was thinking maybe I should stop)
Soaring to new heights, not blinded by the sun’s light. For inside my nest I lay eggs and as the protecter I am too fly reminding you I will not get caught in your web that was designed for trapping perfection. Never going to reach rock bottom again cause venom is hiding behind every broken branch. I am free. Don’t disturb me mentally. I watch from the mountain top and see how society seems to posses nature. Trying to retify something that is intangabile. I see your potential, boxed in with holes which and inside you feel the rejection and the disrespect from whom it was that clipped your wings. If Sky is the Limit I wish to reach the solar atmosphere where stars are risen and not fallen. A place where I can console lost souls and prepare them for the future. For I am the living testimony. I hold perspective high awaiting for more than your understatement of what you see before your eyes. For you envy on the inside that you can’t cage me or make me sing unto lullabies. For I drink from the well of youth and my beak opens to sing undying truths, I am Heaven’s sent instrument, a tool unto you. So therefore please don’t try to cage beauty. Please don’t cage beauty with your lustful desires nor your flattery which may fascinate me but does not appeal to me. Destiny was designed for you to reach the best. As if this is God’s play and I watch as you perfom your best in character but your just dwelling within a pigeons nest. For vultures literally do shit to cool themselves off. Awaiting in air prowling as a Lion hidden in the field of colors that matches his description. So no, no fowl play here. I just watch and I listen, I watch and I listen to Life. With a heart as hard as gold I do sometimes do the same thing twice or more just for the affection That I personally yearn for. I’m not you nor of this World. Just refined as a piece of the puzzle to mend the wholeness that seemed to slowly rot as solitary confidement does for those that lost their dreams while in the “whole”. I watch as you deeply bite and leave your inprint on the Apple that taste so sweet as PIE. that was picked from MY Tree but oh how it sours your stomach, how it sours your stomach because you misunderstood Me. Don’t pick where I lay my eggs don’t disturb my nest for then I will have your eye and will turn you into the apple of my eye. Again I say, I am soaring to new heights and I don’t move from mountain to mountain but the mountains move for me because as a visionary tell me what it is that you don’t see about me. And I will have to reply that you have not flown to were I’ve been so therefore you can’t reach to where I am going and that my present gift is not a lie.

Open Question: What does Zechariah 13:7-9 mean?
http://www.mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt2313.htm
7 Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is near unto Me, saith the LORD of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the little ones.
8 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.
9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried; they shall call on My name, and I will answer them; I will say: ‘It is My people’, and they shall say: ‘The LORD is my God.’ {P}
1. Who/What is the shepherd and man near to him he speaks of?
2. It sounds as if the sheep will be scattered, then 2/3 will be lost for good and 1/3 will come back and be refined. Who/What are the sheep? If I knew who the shepherd was I might know who the sheep are… the shepherd must be above the sheep and the sheep must follow the shepherd.
3. Who are the little ones? Is he talking about the children within the flock of sheep? As if he will smite the children of the sheep?
4. When will this all happen? When will the shepherd who is close to him be smitten and his sheep be scattered? When will they come back?
Resolved Question: Isn’t arbitrage slightly underrated by EMH?
OK, personally I think there is some truth in EMH and that you can’t predict the big financial markets. But, arbitrage seems a little bit underrated by EMH. I am not sure if Prof. Fama has stated this in his original thesis back in the 70s, but you will find many “official studies” online(and in your university) that in the EMH world arbitrage doesn’t exist or when it occurs - it lasts for just a few seconds. OK….but just a “minor detail” that we have something called “high frequency trading” - Yes, you are right - “a few seconds are NOT problem for a high frequency computer”. Actually, below I give you a few examples(without formulas and sophisticated code - just easy to understand arguments), as to why APT, MPT, EMH and all these abbreviations fail when it comes to arbitrage:
1. Arbitrage exists for just 2-3 seconds?:
See above ^…high frequency trading. Also, see this very interesting study from Oxford which not only disproves EMH but even its “refined version” - the Adaptive Market Hypothesis: AMH (too many abbrevations already…funny). So:
http://www.nuffield.ox.ac.uk/users/murphya/Arbitrage%20Opportunities%20in%20Nasdaq%20Stocks.pdf
2. You cannot profit from a carry trade, due to large market risk?
Fail. You can very easily: a) Go long on XAU/USD or vice versa, short it. b) Hedge the market risk with a comex gold futures gold contract. c) Receive the tom rollover on the XAU/USD.
At the end - you end up with no market risk and 3%(or more) leveraged inter market rate. How much is that since both your futures and xauusd forex are margined? You are right: over 50% interest yearly without any market and default risk, the % obviously depends on your broker and how much your forex position is leveraged. The comex gold is an exchange defined initial/maintenance variance margin.
You can make a similar trade with cfd/stocks.
3. Options/betting markets are very efficient:
Fail. With some persistence you can easily find a broker with call/put option sell premium higher than other broker with option buy premium lower, on OTC option markets. You are obviously hedged when buying at the lower price and receiving higher premium at the other broker. Problem here is that there is market risk - but only “virtually”, since you cannot lose even if one of the positions is closed. Of course you can do the same in betting markets when the odds summed on -1th power are below 1.
There some other examples.
Point is that when you read about arbitrage you read only about “buy microsoft stock in london and sell it in new york when prices differ” - which is complete ballooney. Not only this type of “Arbitrage” doesn’t happen - but it’s practically nearly impossible to make money from this even when it happens. The other type that you will read about online is the “triangular arbitrage” with 3 currencies - which occurs once in a millenium.
The first examples however are much more practical, if not shocking since some of them exist for quite some time and not even 2-3 seconds. Which means that most “arbitrageurs” are actually stupid not to exploit them, despite being a public knowledge.
I thought to go on details with formulas, links, references, computer code, etc. in this topic…but I am lazy and busy now .
Thanks!
