I was most interested in seeing whether the Volcker rule got through, but the news reports I've read are very conflicting, with some claiming it's in and some that it's been watered down to meaninglessness.

Given all that tough talk by Obama when he first proposed it in that news conference, I'm very surprised to see such poor mention of it subsequently. News channels seem to not even want to report on it. Sad (and maddening) to see such a visible act of Wall Street's power.
