Talk:Stock trader

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Some distinction should probably be made betweeen investors and traders. As it is now, they appear to be synomyms, which they plainly are not. Perhaps there should even be two seperate articles on traders and investors. --Benna 22:27, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Indeed. In the US at least, there is a legal distinction between investor and trader, and they receive different tax treatments. These points should be discussed. Jm546 (talk) 19:45, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

The 7 Deadly Sins article is not functioning. A Google search shows it is a pay article. [1] Pat 21:12, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Stock Trader" Loans

I would like to see an example of a "Stock Trader" trading in loans. I.e., financial instruments other than stocks. I am not familiar with the abilility to trade loans as instruments. Thanka. // Brick Thrower 08:15, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Bonds are loans that are publicly traded, similar to the way stocks are traded. Mcavic 07:07, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
