spoke out against short-term traders.

"The problems are not limited to the big banks that get all the headlines.
Serious risks are emerging from institutions in the so-called shadow banking
system, including hedge funds, high-frequency traders, non-bank finance
companies," said the Democratic presidential candidate.
Clinton added: "I will soon be proposing a new plan to reform capital gains
taxes to reward longer-term investments that create jobs more than just
quick trades."
But Clinton’s attack today could open her up to charges of hypocrisy.
Raj Fernando, the CEO of high-frequency trading firm Chopper Trading, is
hosting a fundraiser for Clinton next week.
“Hillary Clinton is coming to Chicago for a private fundraiser July 21
hosted at the home of Raj Fernando, CEO of Chopper Trading, a high-frequency
trading firm that recently was purchased by Chicago-based DRW,” Chicago
Business reports.
Plus, hedge fund managers have hosted numerous Clinton fundraisers. | J*****n
