James Koutoulas Speaks Out On MF Global - PFG And Jamie Dimon

James Koutoulas co-founder of the Commodity Customer Coalition, which represents the interests of over 10,000 investors and traders, pulled no punches today as he spoke with great passion regarding the plight of those who have been victimized not only by Jon Corzine of MF Global (currently partying in the Hamptons) Russell Wasendorf Sr. of PFGBest (currently incarcerated) but by the very regulators who were put in place to protect them. The breach of fiduciary duty is heinous at best.

"My goal is real simple: getting everybody's money back," he says. "And I think we have a very high likelihood of doing just that." In early November, Koutoulas, along with fellow Chicago futures trader, John Roe – son of Tennessee Republican congressman Dr. Phil Roe – founded the Commodity Customer Coalition, a grassroots group that seeks to represent the complex legal interests of MF Global's former clients and now those of PFGBest.

Koutoulas, who runs commodity trading advisory firm Typhon Capital Management in Chicago, saw about 50 of his clients affected in the aftermath of the discovery of the fund shortfall — when MF Global Trustee James Giddens immediately froze all customer accounts and no one one was allowed to make withdrawals. Altogether, Koutoulas' customers had roughly $55 million held up at MF Global.

Twitter | The Holy Grail Trading Indicator?

Twitter - The New Holy Grail Of Trading?

Twitter has indeed become the defacto medium for disseminating information of all types. From news to inspirational quotes, from top secret government messages to revolutionary messages that topple top secret governments. Is it a toy, a weapon, or a business tool? That's the beauty of the Twitter...

It's all of the above and even more -  in 140 characters or less.

However, we must keep it in proper perspective. At the most basic level it is nothing more than a pipeline for information. Granted, a pipeline powerful enough to push information from the utterly mundane to mission critical in front of thousands even millions of eyeballs in the blink of a eye(ball).

Defining Risk

Risk as defined by Investopedia :

“A fundamental idea in finance is the relationship between risk and return. The greater the amount of risk that an investor is willing to take on, the greater the potential return. The reason for this is that investors need to be compensated for taking on additional risk. “

Stock Market Bargain Shopping

With the possibility of a longer term bounce into the Presidential election, it might be worth taking a look at some equities that have been knocked down, but not out. We are not attempting to call a bottom, this is more like catching a Phoenix as it rises from the ashes. Our focus is 95% on the indices here at CFRN but after all, those indexes are made up of indvidual stocks right?

As always, due your own due dilligence...
