Holder Confirms Wall Street Investigation
Attorney General Eric Holder has confirmed what many in the financial community have been buzzing about: the U.S. attorney's criminal probe of business practices on Wall Street. At a news conference, Holder declined to say whether the investigation involves hedge funds and allegations of insider trading, as news reports have suggested. A week ago, the FBI searched the offices of three hedge funds, as part of what outside experts say could turn out to be one of the largest probes in Wall Street history.
