Cuts going down circa now.

Apparently “exotics is in the process of getting hosed, though not everyone in the group knows it.” That is all we know so if anyone’s got any other details they’d like to get of their chest, feel free to do so at this time.

Update: Apparently a handful of “associates in commodities structuring in London” have been to sleep in tomorrow.

    Thank you, coal traders!!! I didn’t know the word “coal” was the hydrocarbonic word for “dumbass”.

    No gossip from the tranches? Too bad.

    i have a friend who trades exotic derviatives for JP Morgan. 26 years old, ex-citadel, and made around $500K this past year. I’ll ask him to find out the gory details.

    Either way, top traders at sell-side banks can easily find jobs at buyside firms or go to harvard business, stanford, or wharton.

    Apparently no carnage. That, or those forcibly evicted are still drinking but not yet enraged enough to post about it.

    I’ll hold out hope for the no carnage options for now.

    I can confirm it. Not sure if it was carnage but some veterans ( think 10 yrs. ) had their desks folded and weren’t even extended other jobs within JP
