This project is just a way for bankers to fleece unsophisticated institutions. You can always trade away from the exchanges; you just pick up the phone and start dialing.

He sold the onions to a trader in Arizona who then sold the same to a trader in Colorado, who then sold the same to a trader in Chicago etc. until it reached the produce buyer/seller in New York City. The New York buyer then called the farmer in Texas and complained that the onions he received were rotten and uneatable. The Texas farmer responded with, “What do you mean uneatable. Those onions were for trading not eating!”<br/>Earl L. Crockett<br/>Santa Cruz, CA August 13, 2008

If we can't figure that one out, in ten years and more we'll find out where Lenin and (Huey) Long have been sleeping under the mountain these many years. Here's a factoid to take into account, the wholly different cultural context (for the nonce) nothwithstanding: The source of Putin's considerable popularity in Russia is that he crushed the truly hated financial oligarchs who had seized the country's assets and run roughshod over the public. Wall Street doesn't understand that if they eat all the cake they can, and will, lose their heads over it. Which wouldn't bother me except a lot o' other folks usually get shortened in the process, too. *Grrrrrrrrrr* Where are Glass and Stegall when we really need them?

It's a push-me, pull-you between the street and the regulators. Wall Street consistently develops new ways to make money – Project Turquoise is just another in a long line of such schemes.
