Bronfman, Clinton, Bezos and Facebook insider trading

[Firestarter]

I was looking into the Bronfman family, but this is an interesting topic on its own: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showth...nded-Women-Arrested-For-Sex-Trafficking/page2


The Bronfmans are also in business with Jeff Bezos (according to the “reputable” Forbes the richest man on earth with $112 billion) and Chelsea Clinton...
In 1988, Bezos started working for Banker’s Trust that’s affiliated with the Bronfmans and the CIA.

Edgar M. Bronfman Jr; Jeff Bezos; and Chelsea Clinton are (were?) all on the board of directors of IAC/Interactivecorp.
IAC owns many media outlets, including many leading dating sites in North America and Europe.
In March 2009, IAC/Interactivecorp received a permanent confidentiality exemption from the SEC, so it doesn’t have to report its Google AdSense revenue numbers.

In September 2011, when Barry Diller appointed Chelsea Clinton (married to a Goldman Sachs banker), he also appointed Sonali de Rycker (of the Accel of James Breyer, Facebook, and Goldman Sachs) to the board of IAC. At this time Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State.
Also in 2011, Diller appointed his protégé and former Disney CEO Michael D. Eisner to the IAC board. Eisner has followed Diller around for most of his profitable career — from NBC, CBS, ABC, Paramount to Disney.
After Hillary Clinton’s 2016 election “loss” (she tossed it), in March 2017, Chelsea Clinton was rewarded by Barry Diller by making her board director of Expedia (with a market value of $18.6 billion).

Edgar Bronfman Sr and Jr have been funding Graciela Chichilnisky’s and Peter Eisenberger’s carbon dioxide (CO2) sucking company Global Thermostat. In one of those strange coincidences some of its top executives have links to ExxonMobil (Rockefeller’s oil corporation).
Edgar Jr’s son, Ben Bronfman, is also a manager at Global Thermostat, which has the idea to make money from storing CO2 and then making more by selling it. I’ve though really hard to come up with a non-high-tech solution that sucks CO2 – plants (I guess this won’t make me any money...).

Chichilnisky mentored Jeff Bezos.
Eisenberger was mentor to Obama’s Energy Secretary Stephen Chu at AT&T Bell Labs.
Diller’s former IAC executive vice president, Julius Genachowski, attended Harvard Law School with Barack Obama and was Obama’s chairman of the FCC: https://aim4truth.org/2017/12/07/the-incredible-backstory-of-chelsea-clinton/

Facebook IPO'd at $40. It now trades at $180. What is your point?

I kind of get the feeling you just hate people who make a lot of money. I honestly can't figure out what you are getting at.

Pretty sure it's that they all collude with each other to do it (usually at our expense) and any illegality, like insider trading that would land us little folks in a federal prison, is of no concern to them since they also hand-pick the heads of the enforcement agencies. In other words, it's a giant RICO operation.

The Facebook stock price initially went from $38 to a little more than $25 (in May 2012)...
Until July 2013, the Facebook stock price remained below $37!

Okay. Yeah. I was there. I remember. What is your exclamation point for? Guys like Peter Thiel sold out at the bottom. I don't get your point. Are you one of these Communists who think markets should be risk free and everyone should just make oodles of money and if unsophisticated people make poor decisions and they should be protected from that? I get a lot of people did lose in the Facebook IPO. The job of a business and investment bank is to get the highest price possible in an IPO. A lot of people overpaid and lost. Oh well.

Insider trading should be legal and uninformed people should stay out of the stock market.

Only if the stock market stops being fed by printed up money. The Fed really is the root of all of our ills, as Dr Paul tried to explain. The simple problem now is that none of the laws on the books are followed or enforced, except against the little guy and the occasional sacrificial lamb.

Money is neutral. It is up to people to use it for evil things (or good things). Ills have always existed- with or without a central bank. But we have to blame somebody or something for our problems.

Riiiight. Neutral. As if central banks and their shell companies buying up equities, mortgages and corporate bonds with money created out of nothing is neutral.

The ridiculous valuations of stock market darlings is proof positive of how the central bank (its member banks, really) distorts the markets, highly favors insiders and kills any notion of currency being anything neutral. Amazon broke $2000/share today and it is barely profitable! But since it's an insider corporation, headed up by CIA assets and is fully agenda compliant, the banks can't pump enough money into it. Same with FB. And Google. And Tesla. And the rest of the market darlings that are nothing more than conditioning tools for the agenda.

What "shell companies" does the Federal Reserve own?

Many of them have the word "bank" somewhere in the title but maybe I should send an FOIA request to ask for a list of all the global shell companies they operate. I'm sure they'll get right on it.

The Fed doesn't own any banks or companies or equities. (they do own some US Treasury notes and some Mortgage backed securities though they haven't added to them since 2014- they are slowly reducing what they have).

Notice that my post you quoted said "central banks", not specifically the Fed. Seen the SNB's US equity portfolio lately? Or the BOJ's? Don't insult my intelligence by trying to claim that they aren't all operating in concert as one global central bank administered by the BIS. Besides, we can't audit FOMC actions so there's no way to know what they're up to.

Want to lean what the FOMC is up to? No big secret. Read the transcripts of their meetings right here: https://fraser.stlouisfed.org/title/677#section-2010

Yes, Switzerland Central bank has purchased some securities. They hold about $90 billion worth which is not that much (about ten percent of their balance sheet). https://qz.com/1140322/check-out-the-swiss-central-banks-insane-90-billion-investment-portfolio/ Bank of Japan has also purchased stocks. But those are exceptions among central banks. The Fed by law is not allowed to own any stocks.

Guys like Peter Thiel sold out at the bottom.

Let’s look at the blood sucker Peter Thiel.

Thiel invested $500,000 in 2004.
In May 2014 he sold 1,6844,066 shares (for $37.58 nowhere near the "bottom") and made $633 million.
He could have bought back his 1,6844,066 shares at $20 for $337 million 3 months later.

With the remaining almost 300 million dollars he could have bought human blood to drink, and buy political influence, for example by funding Jared Kushner, Donald Trump, Ron Paul and Rand Paul...

I don't get your point. Are you one of these Communists who think markets should be risk free and everyone should just make oodles of money and if unsophisticated people make poor decisions and they should be protected from that?

In our Brave new world a small group of criminals control the markets. Because they "control" the markets there's no way they can lose: they will always be able to buy low and sell high.

In Communism a small group of people "are more equal than others", just like in our so-called "free market".
This isn't a free market, but a small group of criminals who use their influence to keep the masses enslaved. Money and the stock markets are just some of the tools they use.

That was only half his stake. Not only did he not buyback at the bottom, he sold his other half at the bottom and the stock has gone up nine fold since then.

No. Actually that is a myth. Nobody the controls the market. Not Peter Thiel. Not George Soros. No one. And if Peter Thiel controlled the market, why was his hedge fund so shitty. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...und-shrinks-90-as-thiel-has-third-losing-year

There are no criminals controlling the market. Making money is hard for everyone. No it is not easy to buy low and sell high. George Soros is probably wrong on 70% of his market calls. He is a good risk taker though. He is good at admitting he is wrong and cutting his losses and he is also good at riding winners. There is no civilization without money to facilitate trade. And there is no civilization without being able to raise funds through capital markets. I must have missed the sign that said BernieSandersforums.com
