    http://dm.epiq11.com/MFG/document/GetDocument.aspx?DocumentId=1450861 It sounds like everyone, cash only customers and those who had positions transfered will recieve a distribution, if that is approved in court on Thursday. This should be very telling to see who would argue against that...

    Anyone pulling money out of MF Global?

    I believe that the business side creditors cannot make a claim on the segregrated funds here also however I am still worried that the major banks / clients on the business side of MFG are crafting arguments against that concept. I have yet to see someone strong enough to take up our side and...

    Anyone pulling money out of MF Global?

    That's an interesting point, lawyers on the business side could be crafting ideas on how to get our segregrated monies. On the other hand, wouldn't the account holders of the segregrated accounts be a creditor for the MF business side since 600M was taken away from us? It's kinda like the...

    Anyone pulling money out of MF Global?

    Its' good that you posted those links. I noticed that they just reduced the figure of margin they transfered from 80% down to 75%. Now, trying to think this through logically. At first all access was cut off then they opened up only allowing offsetting orders earlier this last week. Then...

    Corzine hires Criminal Attorney.

    The track record for sending all these fat cat wall street type crooks to prison isn't all that encouraging, I hope they do in this case, all of them involved. The bigger picture is the confidence of the futures industry in segregated accounts. As noted above, regulators exchanges...
