<p>[QUOTE="InfleXion, post: 1447444, member: 29012"]It is worth noting that JP Morgan's recent $2 billion (or is it $8b, or is it $20b?) loss was due to hedging. Yet it is literally impossible to lose money on a hedge because by its very nature a hedge is for counterbalancing an actual position. Had they had an actual position the hedge could not have caused monetary loss because the original position would have cancelled it out. Therefore it was pure speculation, naked betting, and yet they still continue to operate with business as usual without legal consequences.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
