What a pathetic showing.
As everyone knows, these were relatively poorly paid, quant grunts, on Wall Street, at the beck and call of the houses.
I actually interviewed for an analyst job, back in 79 or 80.
It was considered a slippery stepping stone, at best.
Only the average American,
in the relative total darkness of global market capitalism now,
will think this is a form of retribution for anything.
Michael Lewis' books flesh this fact out rather well.
Both Liar's Poker and Moneyball.
Cynical in the extreme, given S & P's serfdom position on Wall Street.
