'TIME-TRAVELER' BUSTED FOR INSIDER TRADING
   Wednesday March 19, 2003

   By CHAD KULTGEN
   NEW  YORK  --  Federal  investigators  have arrested an enigmatic Wall
   Street  wiz on insider-trading charges -- and incredibly, he claims to
   be a time-traveler from the year 2256!
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.
   "The only way he could pull it off is with illegal inside information.
   He's  going  to sit in a jail cell on Rikers Island until he agrees to
   give up his sources."
   The  past  year  of  nose-diving  stock prices has left most investors
   crying  in their beer. So when Carlssin made a flurry of 126 high-risk
   trades  and  came out the winner every time, it raised the eyebrows of
   Wall Street watchdogs.
   "If   a  company's  stock  rose  due  to  a  merger  or  technological
   breakthrough that was supposed to be secret, Mr. Carlssin somehow knew
   about  it  in  advance,"  says  the SEC source close to the hush-hush,
   ongoing investigation.
When  investigators  hauled Carlssin in for questioning, they got more
   than they bargained for: A mind-boggling four-hour confession.
   Carlssin  declared  that  he  had  traveled back in time from over 200
   years  in  the  future,  when  it  is  common  knowledge  that our era
   experienced  one  of  the  worst  stock plunges in history. Yet anyone
   armed  with  knowledge of the handful of stocks destined to go through
   the roof could make a fortune.
   "It  was  just too tempting to resist," Carlssin allegedly said in his
   videotaped  confession.  "I  had  planned to make it look natural, you
   know, lose a little here and there so it doesn't look too perfect. But
   I just got caught in the moment."
   In  a  bid  for  leniency,  Carlssin has reportedly offered to divulge
   "historical  facts"  such  as the whereabouts of Osama Bin Laden and a
   cure for AIDS.
   All  he  wants  is  to be allowed to return to the future in his "time
   craft."
   However,  he  refuses to reveal the location of the machine or discuss
   how  it  works, supposedly out of fear the technology could "fall into
   the wrong hands."
   Officials  are quite confident the "time-traveler's" claims are bogus.
   Yet  the  SEC source admits, "No one can find any record of any Andrew
Carlssin existing anywhere before December 2002."
   Weekly  World  News  will continue to follow this story as it unfolds.
   Keep watching for further developments.
