There is finally a great new movie out about market manipulation, the SEC, and short selling called: "Stock Shock." For those of us that want to understand some of the inner workings of the market, it is a must-see. Very easy to understand and entertaining. Amazon has it or stockshockmovie.com has a trailer.
