    Syria first, Iran second

    if Iran thinks they face a real prospect of any sanctions or an embargo, they will want all their money where they can actually get at it. Makes sense what it sounds like they are doing, assuming they are not intending to back down on their nuclear programme.. Move their money out of the...

    Will IB list the New ICE traded Crude contracts?

    its like LIFFE losing the Bund market when Eurex took the bund all electronic directly against the LIFFE floor. Floor was dead and closed in 12 months. Floor vs screen will always lose in the long run. You'd think Nymex would have seen this coming, instead they were all too busy protecting...

    Refco Futures?

    Refco is a division of Man in name only... Man purchased the assets rather than the shares, so accounts are held with Man now, and not with Refco as a seperate legal entity. So by all means, use Man or use "Refco division" whatever gets your goat, your money is with the company Man Financial.
