Phillip R. Bennett

__NOTOC__ 
Phillip R. Bennett is the former chairman and chief executive officer of Refco Inc. and its corporate predecessor, Refco Group Ltd. (Refco). 
 
Bennett was charged by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) with orchestrating fraud from 1998 to 2005. He was sentenced to 16 years in prison in 2008 after pleading guilty to engaging in securities fraud and various related allegations. He was granted a compassionate release from prison in 2020 amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
He was said to have been worth more than $1 billion at the height of the fraud. The public discussion in October of 2005 of Bennett's scheme, two months after the company's initial public offering (IPO) of common stock, caused hundreds of millions of dollars in losses to Refco shareholders.
Bennett repaid $430 million in cash, but it was not enough to avoid arrest. In February of 2008, Bennett pleaded guilty in a New York city federal court to 20 counts of conspiracy and fraud two-and-a-half years after his arrest. Prosecutors said losses connected to the fraud topped $1.5 billion. He plead guilty in February 2008 and was sentenced to 16 years in prison in July 2008. 
 
The SEC's complaint alleged that Bennett orchestrated a scheme that periodically concealed hundreds of millions of dollars owed to Refco by a private entity that Bennett controlled. The complaint also alleged that Bennett directed practices that artificially inflated Refco's financial results.
Refco president Tone Grant was convicted and sentenced in August 2008 to 10 years for assisting Bennett in the fraud and his role in the Refco collapse.

Phoenix Diversified Investment Corp.

In September of 2008, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) brought a lawsuit against Michael A. Meisner and the Phoenix Diversified Investment Corp. In the lawsuit, the CFTC accused the firm of fraudulent behavior. From March 2003, Phoenix pooled $8 million from at least 26 investors for investment in what Meisner said was a profitable $30-40 million investment company. 
== History ==
Allegedly, on April 21, 2008, Meisner sent letters to the pool participants saying that “[D]ue to an unanticipated cash flow situation, Phoenix will be ceasing its regular day to day business activities.” He allegedly then followed up with a second letter the next day, indicating that Phoenix was out of cash and had no money available in any trading account because it was used to pay distributions to pool participants and to support his lifestyle. 
On September 23 2008, the U.S. District Court charged Michael A. Meisner and Phoenix Diversified Investment Corp. with fraudulently soliciting customers and misappropriating pool participants' funds. The firm traded exchange-traded commodity futures and claimed to utilize a software program that dictated trading patterns in the futures market.
The accounts associated with the commodity pool allegedly suffered net losses of approximately $5.8 million between May 2003 and March 2008.

Physical delivery

Physical delivery in derivatives markets refers to settlement by receiving or sending the underlying assets - stock certificates, head of cattle - to the holder at the contract's maturation date rather than send the cash equivalent (cash settlement). Most derivatives contracts do not result in physical delivery of the underlying product, but are traded out before their delivery date -- that is, the traders close out their positions by buying offsetting contracts. Physical delivery does occur, however, most often with commodities but with other financial instruments as well.
Physically-delivered derivatives contracts are generally subject to much tighter speculative position limits by market regulator the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Speculative limits in physical delivery markets are generally set at a more strict level during the spot month (the month when the futures contract matures and becomes deliverable).
On the last day of trading, physically settled contracts typically experience thin liquidity because traders who do not intend to convert their futures contracts to physical goods have rolled their positions to the next delivery month or just gotten out of the market. 
Indian regulators attempted to go a step further in 2002 to dissuade some of the speculation in its derivatives market of the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and require that all single-stock futures contracts be physically delivered. Nonetheless, stock futures and options contracts continue to trade on the BSE on a cash-settled basis.

Pickens Plan

The Pickens Plan, launched by legendary oil executive T. Boone Pickens in July 2008, calls for building new wind generation facilities that will produce 20 percent of electricity in the United States and promote natural gas as a transportation fuel. It is estimated that the combination of these domestic energies would replace more than one-third of the U.S.'s foreign oil imports. The Pickens Plan says these goals can be accomplished in 10 years. 
The Pickens Plan originally focused on developing a wind powered electricity corridor in the U.S. from Texas through the Great Plains states to North Dakota, with an estimated cost for the entire project of $1 trillion, plus another $200 billion to build the transmission lines. Pickens said that a Department of Energy report supported his claim that 20 percent of the electricity in the U.S. could come from wind power and that North Dakota alone had the potential to provide power for more than a quarter of the country.
Pickens invested $10 billion of his own money into an initiative to build the largest wind farm in the world that would produce 4,000 megawatts of electricity. However, in July of 2009, Pickens abandoned this and decided instead to build a handful of smaller wind farms around the Midwest, rather than in the Texas Panhandle, the original site of the wind farm. Possible locations included Wisconsin, Oklahoma and Kansas and Texas. The cost of this plan would be about $2 million. 
Pickens has said that he had to delay his wind plans because of the financing difficulties that hit wind farms across the country beginning in late 2008, as well as a fall-off in natural gas prices. The scaling back of the wind farm plan, according to the Dallas Morning News, was due to transmission constraints in Texas, which plans to build about $5 billion worth of transmission lines, but not where Pickens had hoped. 
Wind power accounts for 48 billion kWh of electricity a year in the United States — enough to serve more than 4.5 million households. That is still only about 1% of current demand. 
The Pickens Plan is somewhat controversial in that it promotes a fossil fuel switch from crude oil to natural gas to fuel for transportation, which does not address the global warming issue since natural gas powered vehicles will still produce carbon dioxide emissions. There are also studies that conclude natural gas is less efficient than gasoline.
Pickens also estimates that the cost to execute the plan is far less than the $700 billion the U.S. spends on foreign oil every year and also that natural gas is far more abundant domestically than crude oil. The Pickens Plan calls for a shift to natural-gas-powered vehicles by providing economic incentives for fuel stations to invest in natural gas pumps and for automakers to build or convert the vehicles to natural gas-power. Pickens Plan also calls for tax incentives over the next 10 years to encourage wind energy development.
