Yes, know someone from the ING desk (also gone, only 1 guy left)
and they were welcome in the weekly meething, could say what
they want to, but nobody cared to listen....

 They like analysts
because they can sell that trash to institutional clients and tout it
to retail clients.  The firms own trading arm doesn't always use their
own in house TA people so where is the money in the TA group?  Plus as
we know too many think TA is hokus pokus.
Yes... but i would think that at a company like Salomon Smith Barney
they could atleast have proven themselfs to be worth more than the
fundamental guy's.

Apperantly they did not succeed at that..........
