Nothing new here. Happened right around July 1st - so about 7 weeks ago. Why do you question this piece of information.. ?

Posted by: Facto on Aug 16, 08:14 in response to Shrike's post Was the emploee roster really ever reduced from 5 to 1?

Anyway, site is running smoothly and is being run expertly.

I don't know how staff has fluctuated over the years, but four people were let go when HSX owners Cantor Fitzgerald decided to scrap plans to launch the Cantor Exchange (box office futures trading).

That's cool. New owners on the horizon maybe...I have always enjoyed this site. =) {nm} Catzan Aug 16, 00:15

hmmm.i maybe read a different article from you? sounds terrible to me. "makes no money" and "turn into more robust...operation" imho means islander Aug 16, 00:21

from my experience of these things, any buyer looking at taking HSX on... Somerset Aug 16, 01:14

if the site makes no money, then it is not a "format that works", and I know how we all say how we would be willing to pay to play, my gut islander Aug 16, 06:04

I could probably give a darn good change at making money without changing current game play much, if at all. Scorpion [FOXX Fund] Aug 16, 07:35

I better buy ABALD for when he jacks his own bond price up to $300... {nm} secretstalker Aug 16, 05:57

So Dmac is the only guy working for HSX then? I thought id seen a few other posts by staff since then which is why i question. {nm} Shrike Aug 16, 12:19

Can't say that I have seen such posts... {nm} Facto Aug 17, 06:48

Last time I tracked HSX accuracy [somewhere around 2007/2008] the market's average adjust was H$0.56 over the course of a year Scorpion [FOXX Fund] Aug 16, 09:17

I have a suspicion.. Facto Aug 16, 09:29

The point is that the market, as a whole, is a pretty good indicator. Scorpion [FOXX Fund] Aug 16, 09:41

Whatever the motivator, it isn't creating an accurate predictor... Intheway Aug 16, 15:53
