    Interesting article in the DallasNews with regard to Mary Jo White. One of the biggest issues that she has to deal with currently is the claims that the stock market is rigged. She has shown in her first year that she does not allow politics to influence her decisions and it will be interesting to see how she handles the latest crisis.

    Thanks for posting this, it is indeed rather interesting to see how she's been handling things. Hopefully she'll be able to ride the tide that is coming, which is no doubt going to be rather difficult to do.

    Forgive my ignorance but, what does a person in a position like that do? I thought the Fed dealt with interest rates so what does she do? Does she handle policy as to whether or not to approve trades or something?

    I would not want to be Mary Joe right now. We have war emerging. We have bankers jumping out of building. All of the signs of a fast approaching crash are there. She has a tough road ahead of her.

    This trend of bankers jumping from building is so crazy to me. I know that there is something going on that we do not know and if will definitely affect the market. I would not be surprised if the system was rigged. I try not to let politics influence my choices either.

    Mary Jo should just step out of this.
