'Prop trading' is just a fancy term for banks gambling in the market for their own profit.

It's mostly the financial chicanery that's going on. People are saying 'What kind of trust can we put in this market?'

High-frequency traders are firms all around the world. They're massive investments.

I will never be in the stock market. It's just gambling. I'm a gambler, but I'll gamble on the practicality of things.

Gambling with cards or dice or stocks is all one thing. It's getting money without giving an equivalent for it.

Markets are constantly in a state of uncertainty and flux and money is made by discounting the obvious and betting on the unexpected.

Our deals and performance speak for themselves. And whoever doesn't feel comfortable investing with us will not.

Investing is a business where you can look very silly for a long period of time before you are proven right.

I just like to keep my money in the bank; I'm not a big risk-taker. I don't know anything about the stock market... I stay away from things I don't know anything about.

We still have to keep betting on markets like America that are full of opportunities to grow, even if we have to work our heads off to do it.
