The Hunt brothers were amateurs to the Dukes, who tried to corner the orange juice futures market back in the 1980's. Mortimer and Randolph Duke tried to use inside information purchased illegally by one of their henchman. Fortunately, the plot was foiled because one of their disgruntled former employees, Louis Winthorpe III, was clued in on the scheme by Billy Ray, a street bum-turned-trader working for the Dukes in an experimental intern-type program. Ray and Winthorpe got together and masterminded an elaborate way to thwart the Dukes, leaving them penniless.

Think I read about that one in the Wall St. Journal. Wasn't there some kind of kinky beastiality involved?

As I recall, Mortimer and Randolph staged something of a comeback after a Prince Hakeem from Mabunda re-financed their careers by proffering seed money in a brown paper bag.
