Bottom line is that $FXCM has a very popular and PROFITABLE trading platform and most clients understand that this Jan. Debacle with Swiss currency was more than likely a one time event, and now FXCM has put in more controls and safeguards, and they are back to trading and are not even thinking about the one day event longer.. FXCM is back to running the business, and as long as they are able to meet the conditions of the loan, the company will be fine and the stock will run back over $5 short term...

How do you want me to elaborate kashix? The way it works is LUK gets about the 1st billion $ from any sale.

The only way FXCM is getting out of that clause is if they pay LUK off, and don't think they will somehow take less than ~$1 billion.

FXCM wasn't really worth that much more before the CHF event. At $17/share, and 47 million shares, that is 799 million.

They are now worth ~$300+ million less. That doesn't leave much for shareholders.
