In response, I believe that the primary problem is not so much the lack of incentive in this market, but instead the problem is too much opportunity in the shorter term markets.
No offensive is taken (and no sarcasm was intended by my comments).
Maybe the problem with this market could be corrected with dividends. Each share holder would be paid 1 inkling per share per day that passes in which the event did not occur (and the stock price would correspondingly drop by 1 inkling per day). How would that affect things?
