From the NY Post: David Miller, the rogue Rochdale Securities trader whose $1
billion unauthorized Apple trade led to the firm’s collapse, pleaded guilty to
conspiracy and fraud yesterday. Miller,
40, entered his guilty plea before US Magistrate Judge Donna Martinez in Hartford , Conn.
He faces up to 25 years in prison when he is sentenced July 8.
Miller, who lives in Rockville
Center , NY , bought
1.625 million shares of Apple ahead of its quarterly report last October, but
lied and told the firm he was buying just 1,625 shares on a behalf of a client.
The bad bet saddled Rochdale
with $5.2 million in losses, forcing it out of business.
Miller will also be barred from working in the securities
industry as part of a settlement with the Securities and Exchange Commission…
