Very important issue
The Commodities business has always been corrupt
To name a few:
Tom Egan at Stotler
Dittmer (and Tone Grant) at Refco
Some rogue brokers at Conticomodity (that forced the Freeborg to cut this "shameful" business
Alaron just before PFG bought them
LTCM
(ENRON, WORLDCOM, BEAR STREARNS, LEHMAN BROTHERS, SALOMON BROS (MILKEN),NICK LEESON and other rogue traders)

now MF GLOBAL AND PFG BREAKING INTO SEGREGATED ACCOUNTS

HOW CAN ANY NORMAL PERSON PUT THEIR MONEY INTO AN ACOOUNT THAT IS ASSUMED TO BE SAFE while the truth is that the BANK and the BROKERAGE can do with the money whatever they want?
