      NEW YORK (AP) A federal judge approved plans for troubled Refco Inc. to sell its retail currency-trading unit at an auction Jan. 26. So far, the highest bid for that business is from the brokerage FXCM. It has offered $110 million to acquire customer accounts and to buy back a 35 percent ownership stake it had previously sold to Refco. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
