Sources at the Security and Exchange Commission confirm that 44-year-old 
Andrew Carlssin offered the bizarre explanation for his uncanny success in 
the stock market after being led off in handcuffs on January 28.

"We don't believe this guy's story -- he's either a lunatic or a 
pathological liar," says an SEC insider.

"But the fact is, with an initial investment of only $800, in two weeks' 
time he had a portfolio valued at over $350 million. Every trade he made 
capitalized on unexpected business developments, which simply can't be pure 
luck.
