The article contains this little note right at the bottom:
“Paulo Sergio Silva, 36, a trader for the brokerage arm of the Brazilian banking giant Itaú, shot himself in the chest during the afternoon trading session of São Paulo’s commodities and futures exchange in an apparent suicide attempt in November. Trading stopped for about 15 minutes.”
Trading stopped for 15 minutes!!! Your colleague violently tries to commit suicide in the office, and you only stop work for 15 minutes.
And they say financial people have no soul…
