How Many Scandals Can JPM Take?

Normally I wouldn't post from ZeroHedge (even though I enjoy reading it) as the majority of their stuff is on the realms of wearing a tinfoil hat, but this one actually has some fact in it at some stuff to think about.

"The trustee liquidating Peregrine Financial Group Inc. asked a judge for authority to subpoena the defunct futures brokerage’s banks including JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) and Citigroup Inc. (C) for information about transfers from segregated accounts and proprietary accounts." (this is actually a Bloomberg quote)

TL;DR version - JPM is being subpoenaed over some of the missing money from PFG.

This, along with accusations and almost-proof that JPM is holding onto a ton of money from the MFGlobal saga, isn't really helping their image as the most honest and straight investment bank.
