Merrill Lynch agrees to $100 million settlement over analyst bias
Times Herald Record reports Merrill Lynch signed a deal with state Attorney General Eliot Spitzer admitting no liability yet paying $100 million. The pact requires protections to keep stock analysts independent from investment bankers. Spitzer cited leaked emails showing praise for dot com stocks while privately deeming them worthless. Critics call the agreement a regulatory win for restitution but not admission of wrongdoing, while noting possible impacts on other firms and ongoing investigations.
