    MF Global stock down 35%

    Now with all that said... I too, do not believe MF global is going to go bust. They have a serious problem with risk management and internal controls, however, so these moves in their stock should serve as a wake up call to move a little faster on getting that area fixed. Bernard Dan was...

    MF Global stock down 35%

    And, S&P.. Lowered the ratings in Feb, with watch neg down. See attachment. EDIT: 2 out of 3 firms. I'm willing to bet that S&P will lower their rating before Jul 31... But here's the harbinger: MF apparently has some lax controls within it's internal trading division. They keep...

    Attn US Bond Futures Traders

    I don't see how expanding it to 5 deep would impact performance, take for example the level 2 and ECN books in stocks...... Hundreds of orders if you're viewing MM, exchange, ECN data (ECN's probably have more 'levels' in the book).. Doesn't make sense Heck, even Cantor is able to do it...

    Bond rally nearing an end?

    Interesting notes out of our lovely research boys upstairs, albeit a bit dated. Surprisingly, the folks who were the most active in UST auctions in 2005 were... The BRITS! They attribute a healthy appetite for treasuries due to a lot of petrodollar users (oil producers who have now seen...

    JP Morgan prop desk - worst results in recent memory

    The names thing I don't really care... Call me whatever you want (trust me, I've been called every name in the book A-Z) FredBloggs mentions that the top producers aren't treated like shit... That is true to some degree, but incompetent desk managers changes the equation. Oh well, it was...

    JP Morgan prop desk - worst results in recent memory

    What if you work for a firm that treats you like absolute SHIT day in and day out? You wouldn't be motivated. You wouldn't be inclined to do jack shit except make the minimum to get by, then collect your lovely paycheck every 2 weeks, and hope that someone who isn't burnt out (or a newbie who...
