If the stock market were already crashing then it would be simple to blame the dismally sad rash of dead bankers in the last week on that - certainly that was reflected in 1929. However, for the third time in the last week, a senior financial executive has died in what appears to be a suicide. As Bloomberg reports, following the deaths of a JPMorgan senior manager (Tuesday) and a Deutsche Bank executive (Sunday), Russell Investments' Chief Economist (and former Fed economist) Mike Dueker was found dead at the side of a highway in Washington State. Police said the death appeared to be a suicide.
Mike Dueker, the chief economist at Russell Investments, was found dead at the side of a highway that leads to the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in Washington state, according to the Pierce County Sheriff’s Department. He was 50.

He may have jumped over a 4-foot (1.2-meter) fence before falling down a 40- to 50-foot embankment, Pierce County Detective Ed Troyer said yesterday. He said the death appeared to be a suicide.

Dueker was reported missing on Jan. 29, and a group of friends had been searching for him along with law enforcement. Troyer said Dueker was having problems at work, without elaborating.

Dueker was in good standing at Russell, said Jennifer Tice, a company spokeswoman. She declined to comment on Troyer’s statement about Dueker’s work issues...
 
haha....reminds me of the joke: What do you call 500 lawyers in the bottom of the sea? (a good start!)
 
I wish one of these guys had been smart enough to leave a poison pill on the internet - something that gets published and emailed to thousands of people in the event they don't check in.
 
He was a researcher for the St Louis Fed. They hire lots of economists. "Fed Member" sounds like he was on the Board but wasn't.
 
It sounds to me like they are being "suicided" ... before the big crash. They probably have severe, damaging testimony when the blame game begins.
 
Seems sort of odd to make much of this.

Sure banking is broken in both directions and the banks just seem to me to be false front operations for the central banks, but hasn't their economy been booming at the expense of our economy?
 
Two of them jumped to their deaths... lmao ... thinking "pushed" to their deaths is better headline.

Damn tin foil hatters. Waiting for someone with common sense to jump in with the scientific explanation in 3...2...1...
 
If you can't copy and past a portion of the article Matt, I would be happy to show you how. If you can't be bothered because your time is to important to give a short summation or a copy and paste, perhaps you could get one of your interns to help. Maybe it's just...what is they call it? Little man syndrome?
 
Methinks the life insurance rates for senior managers in the financial sector just skyrocketed!

As to other thoughts... DANG! - I'm fresh out of tin foil! :eek:

Myth: All true suicides leave a suicide note.

Fact: No, in fact a surprising number of people do not leave suicide notes. According to Canadian researcher Dr. A. Leenaars, who has extensively studied suicide notes, and only 12 to 37% leave notes.

OK, I'm a bit surprised here. We are in the area where one of them should have left a note to needing 6 for one of them to have statistically left a note.

Suicide? Or murdered?

this was my thought.
Jumping a fence and falling down an embankment does not sound like a normal suicide.
