On one hand, good for them and hopefully they'll be profitable in Q2.

On the other hand, how can we be sure these are the real numbers will all of the recent scandal?

Hopefully, because the SEC is doing their job.

Unfortunately its not about the desire for the SEC todo their job, its ability.

New top-grads in finance (and highly sought after performers) go to work at large banks simply based on incentive structures. The SEC is out gunned from the get-go.
