At the end of Feb-2021, approx 4.1 billion shares (totalling $36.7 billion at closing price) were "Fails to Deliver" (FTD). i.e. shares have been traded but the buyer or the seller did NOT or could NOT complete the transaction and meet their obligations. Should we be worried by this ? Is another "Financial Crisis" looming ? Why aren't mainstream media talking about this ??? Note: * $36.7 billion is a huge amount of money for an average person (like me). But it is NOT a huge amount of money for the US or global markets. It is definitely not time to panic ... yet. The 2007-2008 Global Financial Crisis led to a loss of more than $2 trillion from the global economy. But if this "Fails to Deliver" situation gets a lot worse - exponentially worse - then people and politicians and the SEC should become really concerned ! And, as I discuss in the video, please note this information from the SEC web site: * "Please note that fails-to-deliver can occur for a number of reasons on both long and short sales. Therefore, fails-to-deliver are not necessarily the result of short selling, and are not evidence of abusive short selling or "naked" short selling." https://www.sec.gov/data/foiadocsfailsdatahtm What do you think ?

A recording of me building a Student GUI that stores Student objects in a LinkedList and allows the user to Add students, Delete students, Display All students, and Exit. See question below. Uses Java's built in LinkedList class. Source code is here: https://github.com/MooseValley/LinkedLists-Students-GUI-Add-Delete-Display User input is handled via GUI components (textfields) - which is *much* better than using input dialogs. Q1. Linked Lists – using Java's built in LinkedList 1. Write a Java class named StudentEmail that has data members for the name and number of a student. The class should have a constructor and appropriate accessor and mutator methods. In addition, the toString method should include the output information with student name, student number and the corresponding e-mail address. The e-mail address is a string with the student number and @my.email (such as s123@my.email). Then you write a program that creates a GUI with two labelled text fields, each one for name and student number, a text area to display the information, and four buttons: • Add: when the user enters data into the text fields and clicks the ‘add’ button, a StudentEmail object is created and stored in a LinkedList, and in then the student name, number and e-mail is displayed on the text area. • Delete: If you want to delete a student e-mail entry, you can enter the student name in the text field and press the ‘delete’ button. If the entered student name doesn’t match any name in the LinkedList, a dialog message box will pop up to indicate this. • Display All: Clicking ‘display all’ button will display all data (StudentEmail object) that are stored in the linkedlist. • Exit: Pressing ‘exit’ button will allow users to exit the program.
