A lot of people don’t know what high frequency trading really is on the bottom line:

it basically means that you make a tiny profit on very very many trades which have absolutely no risk at all. I would go into more detail but I’m on my phone now and the basic mechanism is that you front load the trades of other unseen people.

if you’re a high frequency trading outfit, basically you’re a scumbag.

HFTs are basically pick-pockets or robbers.

and how does a guy from India get a Spanish last name?

I don’t know that there’s dishonesty there but considering his background it’s a very reasonable question.

that smells like some more smoke.

Incredible how absolutely poor our media are. We should have long in depth articles on Hillary and guys like this.

Just because it's interesting, I'll put this in:

Portugal once had a global trading empire just like Spain. One of Portugal's important bases was Goa in India. I once worked with someone born in Goa, who was a Muslim, and whose last name was Moreira. That's a Portuguese name. Fernando might be more often a Spanish name, but it can also be a Portuguese name.

So this guy's name may not be as odd as it appears.

But he's still a scumbag who got a government post by bribing Hillary.

His Wiki page is a hoot.
He donates to a no kill animal shelter and the holocaust museum and strangely, his parentage is really vague there too...born in Denmark to parents “CK and Laura Fernando” as if CK is a name.
