Jerome Kerviel named in €5bn bank trading fraud

The French bank Société Générale stunned financial markets today by revealing that it had been the victim of a near-€5 billion (£3.7 billion) rogue trading fraud, one of the world's largest and four times the size of the cover-up by Nick Leeson, the man who sank Barings.

The bank declined to identify the trader, but he has been named as Jérôme Kerviel, a 31-year-old options trader.

"He is not here and we do not know when he will be back," said a colleague who answered his line at the bank's trading room in La Défense, the business district west of Paris.

No problem, If Hillary loses they can hire her as a options trader, after all she turned $1,000 into $100,000 in a year, Imagine what she could do with 7 billion, she could pay off the national debt in a year.

If you're a Ewen McGregor fan I strongly suggest you watch one of his earlier films, Rogue Trader where he plays Nick Leeson. Good movie.

Terry Glenn is a cowgirl

She isn't very savvy... but the insiders that tell her how to do it are kinda slick though.

She was doing futures contracts. I think it was will cattle, if I remember correctly. I thought she made over $250k from that experiment.

By knowing the right people, you can make a KILLING in these types of speculations.

And, they don't EVER plan on fixing the debt problem.

EVER...

That explains a LOT, also.

Wow, we're learning much in the past 12 hours about why you and Fogbuster are the way you are.
