More filthy scumbag CEOs need to pay the ultimate price for their criminal misdeeds. Maybe this will start a trend that spreads around the globe. How many people will shed tears if a few Wall Street CEO scumbags met a similar fate? Not many. The next leg down in this ongoing depression will lose lots of people lots of money. Angry men with weapons who have been screwed by Wall Street would be a welcome addition to this Fourth Turning.
Disgruntled Chinese investor stabs CEO after losing investment
Asset management firm’s chief in coma after attack during investor meeting
In a graphic example of the toll the Chinese stock market’s selloff is taking on some investors, a disgruntled Chinese man reportedly attacked the chief executive of an asset management firm after learning that he would not get back nearly $50,000 he invested with the company.
The assailant, who was not identified, stabbed Wang Jie, CEO of Global Wealth Investment, during an investor meeting, media reports said. The CEO, who was rushed to the hospital, remains in a coma.
“The company’s clients took comfort from the fact that their investment was backed by Hebei Financing Investment Guarantee Group, one of China’s biggest state-backed credit guarantors,” Reuters reported. “However, Hebei Financing decided not to honor its commitment earlier this year.”
Global Wealth, which at one point managed more than 700 million yuan ($110.4 million) in assets, is now on the verge of bankruptcy, the news agency said.
The incident demonstrates the growing anger and frustration among some Chinese investors, who were caught unaware as the Shanghai Composite Index SHCOMP, +0.17% plummeted 30% within a matter of weeks after skyrocketing 70% between November and May.
That’ll get their attention!
What do you call a couple thousand dead bankers?

I’m a stockbroker myself and I’d call it … about time!
So happy on the way up. “I’m a genius”. I lost? It’s somebody else’s fault.
If there were no risk in the financial markets everyone would be rich by the time they were 12.
People should think about this a bit before they give their money to someone else hoping for riches in return.
Guarantee from hebe repudiated?
A fine display of greed gone amuck, seppuku would have made a fitting finale.
Hurrah! The hell with school shootings, let’s see some corporate boardroom massacres.
I can picture in my head that lady who testified before congress on the Enron rip-off. She was about 70 and had unfortunately put all her eggs in one basket and lost something like $700,000. So she took it and shuffled off to her miserable final days. Of course congress didn’t do shit.
But she could’ve.

Moves are already being made to ban flamethrowers for the private sector, to limit them to law government agencies and police.
Why do the police need flamethrowers?
Well, Koresh and his congregation should explain that.
@Star, I’d call that a good start.
