James Bond Movie Casino Royale incorporates Stock Market into Plot

One small part of the plot of the James Bond Movie, Casino Royale, involves short selling of stock. I won't give away any more of the plot in case you haven't seen the movie, which I recommend you do.

There are a ton of product placements in the movie, including products of Ford Motor Co. (traded on the New York Stock Exchange with the symbol F), Omega Watches, Smirnoff and Sony Ericsson (Sony ADR's are traded on the NYSE with the symbol SNE). You will see Aston Martins, Range Rovers, and Jaguars, along with Omega's Seamaster watch and the M600 Smart Phone. Even reference to the Adobe Photoshop program (was that a product placement or just a freebie for Adobe?)
