Goldman, Deutsche Fail, Barclays Wins, NYSE Glitch

Reuters reports that in separate decisions on Monday, U.S. District Judge Denise Cote in Manhattan said the Federal Housing Finance Agency may pursue fraud claims over some of the banks' representations in offering materials regarding mortgage underwriting standards.

In the meantime, the news agency reports that Barclays Bank has won a dismissal of a U.S. lawsuit brought on behalf of creditors of energy transport and storage company SemGroup.

The lawsuit had sought repayment of a $143m fee that SemGroup paid the bank to take over its commodities trading positions before it filed for bankruptcy in 2008.

Finally, Reuters reports that NYSE Euronext suspended trading in over 200 stocks on the New York Stock Exchange on Monday due to a technical problem with a server, although the stocks in question continued trading on other markets.
