Wouldn't Mark correctly assume that the information is no longer confidential when the Broker is discussing it with outside parties. Was Mark a board member or officer of mama.com? Just a thought.

That excludes any media treatment at all, so good luck with that. I want more than anything for him to get a fair trial. That excludes any media treatment at all, so good luck with that.

I admire you and your family for all that you do. A successful, honest, classy, highly intellegent, patriotic person would not subject themselves to this. Hi Brian!

In the same way, I only know each of those that left comments above by what they wrote. Frankly I am appalled by the willingness to believe the media reports without the slightest desire to check the facts. What are the facts? Don't know yet. Perhaps Mark traded on insider information. He flatly denies the allegation on his website. If he did something wrong, the Martha Stewart case suggests that Mark will be caught. If he did not do anything wrong, there are hundreds of cases that suggest his reputation will be tarnished without need. Why the need to make conclusive decisions now? Let's wait for the facts to be fully aired. We don't know if there even is a duck. This is classic media assassination. Guilty until proven innocent. Guilty after acquittal "because he had good lawyers." I prefer innocent until proven guilty. I only know Mark through the media and Brian through the blogosphere.

Nor does your brother. Whatever will happen will happen. A year from now who will remember this? You'll still be the people you are and if you know each other to be decent people then don't worry about it. When you do, you're the only one losing sleep. Everyone else forgot about it while they were reading about the next smear. Keep your family and friends close to you for support and everything else will work itself out, probably pretty well so long as you keep your ducks in a row. You don't need good luck, Brian.

He makes it his life to stay in tune via whatever technology is available at the time. He is an AVID reader of anything he can get his hands on.....HE, unlike most of us, has a better knack of knowing when to get out.!.....others only hope to have just a little bit of that gift. I wish Mark the best in tackling this endeavor, I KNOW, without a doubt he will come out clean. Wayne in Miami Hey Brian,

He also has a christian fundy in the leadership at the SEC calling him names, unpatriotic and trying to defame his good name. This is why religion should stay light years away from politics.

I'll say in contrast it is better to deal with these entities than guerilla warlords in other countries who take what you have just because they can at gunpoint and certainly without a trial. God Bless America. It is a pain to be the target of a witch hunt involving the SEC or IRS.
