A break in the action: media shorts (Part 1)


All through this terrorism stuff no one in the US it seems has bothered to check out the ramifications of the nosedive in the prices of United Airlines and American Arilines stocks after September 11, 2001--except for Christ Blackhurst of Britain's independent at "http://news.independent.co.uk/business/n...". It turns out that some investor bought a huge number of "put" options (which means someone is betting that the price of a stock or commodity goes down) on these two airlines a day or so before 9-11. It turns out that investor was once head of the CIA!

Part Two next week...
