Dare I say it, but...

"To the tune of Ten of Billions" is that sooo material?

That amount's not unheard of for a single company, hedge fund, hell even individual (there was also that guy that loss 8 Billion).

If it's half of all trading volumne, but a tiny fraction of profit, then this is razor thin margins. In these areas, we've always been comfortable allowing the big boys in any industry (with their economies-of-scale) to execute efficiently, and hopefully compete each other out of ripping to rest of us off too bad.
