Alaron Trading Corp., one of five bidders to buy assets of bankrupt futures broker Refco Inc., has been ruled out of a bankruptcy auction, Chief Executive Steven Greenberg said in an interview today.

``The bottom line is we're not going to be able to bid,'' said Greenberg. ``We're disappointed.'' Alaron Managing Partner Gary Weber said in an interview that the auction was ``shrouded in mystery.''

Refco is selling assets after filing the 14th-largest bankruptcy in U.S. history following disclosure that former Chief Executive Officer Phillip Bennett hid $430 million of debt.
