However, there’s more going on. The bank has refused to state where in its operations the loss was incurred. For good reason perhaps: the positions that caused the loss are still rumored to be open.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; margin-top: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; margin-top: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;The main problem JPMorgan may be facing, and the 8% loss in pre-market trading may be a sign players are on to this, is that we probably already know where the loss is. A few weeks ago, the financial sphere was full of stories about the London Whale, a JPM trader in London named Bruno Michel Iksil, who had taken such massive - synthetic - derivative (gambling) positions in a 125 company index that they were moving the market itself.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; margin-top: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;Back then, some hedge funds took counter positions just for the sheer fact that he had bet so much; they figured he couldn&#39;t last forever on all trades. The underlying notion was he was long a bunch of companies; well, not a lot has gone well in the markets lately. And if you have overweight derivative positions in one direction (in this case credit default swaps) , you can make a killing or you can get punished fast and furious.
