Goldman and Merrill deny that they participated in unlawful naked shorting. Theirsupporters argue that the legal action brought by Overstock is a crude tactic by itsmercurial boss, Patrick Byrne, to divert attention from its long history ofunderperformance. Some question the link between failed trades and naked shorting.
高盛和美林否认他们参与了非法的裸卖空。他们的支持者辩护说这起由Overstock挑起的官司是该公司狡猾多端的老板Patrick Byrne的一个粗糙战术,旨在将注意力从该公司长期的欠佳表现转移开来。一些人质疑在交易失败与裸卖空之间的联系。
Nevertheless, the release of the e-mail excerpts will have done the brokers no favours. Theysuggest that trades were being intentionally failed; that some of the firms internalpolicemen were unhappy with the explanations they received for the proliferation of fails;and that at least one executive had an unusual attitude towards compliance. The e-mailsare just a small part of the material unearthed during the four-year discovery process. If thecourt of appeal unstays the partial unsealing order, there will be much more to pore over.
虽然如此,电子邮件节选内容的曝光对经纪人来说可不是好事。它们表明了交易是被故意搅黄的;一些公司内部监管人员对收到的交易失败扩大化的解释并不满意,而且至少有一位高管对合规性持不同寻常的态度。这些电子邮件只是这四年的证据公示阶段中众多被发掘出的材料中的冰山一角。如果上诉法院对有限的开启令不予支持,那么将会有更多材料等着细读。
