| Film About Wall Street Swindler Jordan Belforte |
| Written by David Neubert | |||

Martin Scorsese might join Leonardo DiCaprio to film the story of one of Wall Street's most notorious swindlers, Jordan Belfort. It's always good for people to learn how swindlers operate. I hope they make this film about penny stock operators who "pump and dump." For a concise example of how pump and dump works see: "Anatomy of a 'Chop-stock' Deal" at BusinessWeek.com.
