No. Completely different circumstances. People on Wall Street are compensated for making money for their firm. Just because you don't like how they did it, doesn't mean they shouldn't get a bonus. If their conduct was criminal, that is a separate issue.

Here, people were lying, changing test scores, and cheating students to get bonuses. Much different than making a trade you don't happen to like.
