We, the ignorant masses, are supposed to blindly accept their excuses.
Here's how it looks from my horse - I buy 10 shares at $10 for a $100 investment.
My broker panics and sells my ten shares at $9, giving me a loss of $10.
Being the savvy broker that he is, he buys 11 shares at $9.
The price rebounds, I lost $10 and he made $11. I wish he wouldn't panic like this ..
