Waste of time. - Steve Cohen is a fraud
12/24/2024
This is a podcast is a complete total waste of time. Steve Cohen was fined over $1 billion for insider trading. 60 minutes covered it. He would say in a deposition if he knew insider trading was illegal and he said he didn’t. What??? Don’t believe me, Goggle Steve Cohen deposition and watch the video’s yourself. They are comically awful about how big of a fraud Steve Cohen is. I spent 12 years in the investment world including 3 years as an analyst at S&P. The only investments worth investing in are index funds. Period. Read every book written by Vanguard’s John Bogle or A random walk down Wall Street by University of Chicago Professoe Burton Malkiel. Those books will give you all the proof you need to be a successful investor. I would love for Steve Cohen to address his gigantic fine from the SEC for insider trading but I know he won’t. His current hedge fund manages his family’s money and no outside money because of his settlement with the SEC. Regardless you won’t lean a single thing from this podcast. Steve Cohen. What a fraud. Go Yankees!!!!
