2010.02.24 19:23:31 The irrationality of markets keeps on amazing me. Markets edge up by almost 1% in the US after Ben Bernanke tells lawmakers that the economy is in bad shape and that interest rates will have to be kept low. Basically, markets cheered on the cheap credit that keeps on flowing, it sounded like...... Read more...

2010.02.02 17:20:55 Not a good period any more for shorting I am afraid. The short squeeze surprised me. Markets are going up, at a rapid pace, unfortunately I am at the wrong side of the market...

2010.01.31 20:05:51 My short strategy seems to be rewarding, let's see for how long, but for now it works. Markets are still going down. I do not expect it to last for long, but in the short term I see it going down. Since picking stocks to short seems a little tough for the moment, I just go shot on the indexes. My favourite......

2010.01.26 06:59:54 2009 was a great year. Stock markets rising faster than the tide at Mt Saint Michel, something I did not see in my (young) life, but what is it going to be in 2010? It looks like, in the short term, it is going to go down. Analysts will talk of correction, but what are the underlying factors? Liquidity...... Read more...

2009.12.11 03:27:41 I am surprised, not just because bankers are furious about the extraordinary tax on bonuses, but even more so to discover that bankers are putting their money big time in real estate. End of November I posted "Where is that big fat bonus going to go ?", and today I am surprised to read the following...... Read more...

2009.11.18 20:43:42 Finance does not create value, it is actually a support function to help the real economy (manufacturing, technology, services, etc.) function. A bit like the customer support helpdesk when your SAP system does not do what you want. However, the main difference is the salary and bonus. Why? I wonder why,...... Read more...

2009.10.20 19:16:43 It looks like the financial crisis based due to CDOs, CDS, and other exotic products did not have any effect on making the financial terms any easier. Popular risk analysis tools were based on the 'simple' Geometric Brownian Motion, but that seems now to be based on wrong assumptions. AIG paid the cost...... Read more...
