NoQuarter Radio’s Sense on Cents with Larry Doyle Tonight at 8:00pm ET – Guest, Bill Singer

By Larry Doyle on June 14, 2009 at 7:30 AM in Current Affairs, Economy, NoQuarter Radio, Sense on Cents (Larry Doyle blog)

Please join me tonight from 8-9 p.m. ET for NoQuarter Radio’s Sense on Cents with Larry Doyle. The markets gyrated this week but ultimately ended up close to unchanged across the board. That said, our economic landscape continues to provide numerous twists and turns. Let’s navigate.

The wizards in Washington are working feverishly on an overhaul of the regulatory framework of the financial industry. Or are they? Will real changes be implemented or is it mere pandering? Sense on Cents is thrilled to host the preeminent veteran Wall Street regulatory lawyer and market reform advocate Bill Singer this Sunday evening.

Bill’s career is nothing short of extraordinary. He is engaged far and wide for his legal expertise and advocacy on a wide array of regulatory issues. At this point in our financial and economic turmoil, nobody is better positioned to address the intersection of Wall Street and Washington than Bill Singer.

More specifically, Bill operates within the following realms:

  • shareholder in the Securities Practice Group of the law firm Stark & Stark

  • Publisher of http://brokeandbroker.com

  • Publisher of http://RRBDLaw.com

  • Columnist and Member of Forbes.com’s Intelligent Investing Panel

Bill and I will engage in a no-holds-barred conversation about the recent meltdown of our financial system:

  • What role did inept regulation and incompetent regulators play in allowing the tragedy to unfold and proceed?

  • Should the present regulatory system be salvaged, or demolished and replaced with a new scheme?

  • A major part of the regulation of Wall Street is done by a so-called self-regulator whose rules and Board members are voted on only by its member firms — is this still a good idea?

  • Why don’t powerful industry interests want the job of stockbroker to be “professionalized” along the lines of medical doctors, lawyers, and CPAs?

These are truly historic times in the global economy. Let’s “navigate the economic landscape” without the pandering or nonsense found elsewhere!

With Bill Singer on the show tonight, you can rest assured we will leave no stone unturned in navigating all the angles on this part of our economic landscape.

Please spread the word amongst friends and colleagues not to miss the show this Sunday evening on NQR’s Sense on Cents with Larry Doyle. Thank you to Larry Johnson and all the folks at NoQuarter for providing such a vibrant media vehicle as NoQuarter Radio.

    Looking forward to it LD!

    Sounds like a great show.

    On this anniversary, can we all just take a moment to be glad that Tim Russert is still dead?

    The way he attacked Hillary Clinton and swooned over Obama was sickening.

    Next up, Chris Matthews. That pair made me ill during the primaries.

      The way Russert attacked Hillary was wrong, but it is incalculably worse to be happy someone has died or to want them dead.

      What I want for Matthews is a career change–to somewhere we won’t have to listen to him.

        I didn’t want him dead. He did it to himself, the fatass. And I’m not upset in the least.

    Sounds like an awesome show coming up! That last question is especially interesting.

    And the second–I wonder if the system will be changed in any real way at the end of the day. (My guess–no way, but then again, I’m somewhat of a conspiracy theorist in this area.)
