Peter and Tony are new stockbrokers. They are rated worst and second worst in their new stockbroker class. Peter has an idea which will solve all of their problems. They will borrow money from Tony's uncle, a "made man" in the Mafia, and buy low-priced stocks. They'll push the stocks up in price by spreading sensational rumors. They'll sell the stocks at high prices; repay the Mafia; and keep the profits. An excellent plan. What could possibly go wrong?
