But who is your favorite of all the victims?

Is it NJ Senator Frank Lautenberg's charitable trust? Is it Steven Spielberg? Check out the full list and let us know

Prospective Hedge Fund Investment

Hypothetical -

I am an asset manager specializing in hedge fund of funds investing and I am looking at prospective hedge fund investments. What am I looking for in a hedge fund and why?

forced to move brokerage accounts to hiring ib?

noticed recently in an offer contract that if i join this bank that i have to move all my brokerage accounts to the bank unless i get an exception from compliance in writing (obviously not going to happen)...going to miss my zecco account.

is this standard practice for ibanks?

Good Investing Blogs

Just curious if anyone has any good blogs that they follow - I like to hear different perspectives on the economy/investing.

Thanks
