Traders' View: The craziness isn't over

摘要

If you thought the last few years were crazy, get ready for new regulations, new exchanges and possibly a whole new way of doing business. February was a bellwether month for the futures industry. Volume on U.S. Treasury futures topped 10 million at the CME for the first time ever, and former PFG boss Russell Wasendorf Sr. moved into his new digs at the U.S. Penitentiary in Terre Haute, Indiana. His former customers, meanwhile, learned they were getting most of their money back -as are those of MF Global, although that company's former CEO, Jon Corzine, dodged a lifetime ban from the National Futures Association (NFA), at least for now.
