Amazing fleecing.........

The esteemed stockbrokers at Morgan Stanley were fined $6.1 million simply because the NASD, for which I was an arbitrator for about a decade (before the SEC abolished Registered Investment Advisors such as Chippewa Partners, of which I am Chairman, from being arbitrators due to our extremely unbiased opinions as to who the guilty parties are) found that 2,062 customers generated $2.8 million in fees for ZERO trading in their accounts. The public, in sheeps clothing, can't see the wolves behind all the slick advertising and Wall Street hype and hyperbole. Broker hubris is alive and well. Scary.
