    To better prepare for a black swan, I'd pay top dollars for an advanced prosumer DSLR camera - a black swan is rare luck to run into :) I'll take a full 4GB memory card load of photos... Not sure about other catastrophic events...

    Any retail shop offer short interest rebate?

    Anyone knows where you can get paid reasonable interest on a balanced book of say 200k a side? That is, if you put up 200k and build a book of 200k long and 200k short, where can you earn interest on the 200k of balance you see in the account? Thanks.

    POLL: Is the Fed being run by monkeys?

    With the 13T of debt piling up, it only benefits the American public if the currency is debased. When gold trades at 1,000,000,000,000 per ounce we can simply pay off the 13,000,000,000,000 of national debt by 13 ounces of gold - nice plan!! Robbing our creditors is so clever. Heli-Ben is no...

    China Threatens To Trigger Us Dollar Crash

    What bluff? China has over 1T of USD exposure that they need to sell. I'd say China is cornered successfully by the U.S. Look at it this way, US had been able to sell to China papers and numbers they print or increment in the banking system, while getting real commodities from China at...

    RenTec's Jim Simons on "From Quant to Riches"

    Words have it that only the very top knows the big picture. Don't be fooled. Town-hall meetings can't be very revealing.

That is, _ALL_ types of data that you want to access is within a few key strokes. Their UI isn't too pretty, however the...
