The bank's Chief Executive Daniel Bouton said that the fraudster had used "extremely sophisticated and varied techniques".

Translation: He had a basic understanding of how this stuff works, which we big-wig executives lack. We never bother learning about it because it's beneath us.

SG found out on Friday. Euro futures were down over the weekend (read: illegal insider trading from leaks of this news).

Global markets were down on Monday and Tuesday as SG unwound those futures positions.

This was a correction due to a rogue trader in Europe, not from a sub-prime or bond insurer crisis in the U.S.
