    Everyone is attacking Hedge Funds

    problem with most hedge funds esp stock/emerging markets funds is that relativelyly speaking weve gone thru a period of great global growth fueled by IT, commodities and services. What is going to interest me is how the hedge funds perform when teh market is choppy/poor, few good investment...

    israeli occupation

    first of all u take me out of context. Second of all palestinians are just as responsible as israelis for the violence and slaughter in the mid-east. to suggest that any one party is somehow more "right" in their violence than another brings about dangerous consequences. Its the same ideas which...

    CME Renminbi futures

    Smart people are lonely, are traders lonely. (not talking about paid company)

    yeah i guess traders are a lonely bunch. There arnt that many people in the world who can understand why u would risk your capital, income and security in order to what most people consider gamble. Most people have a romantic image of a carefree amoral speculator who makes millions sleeping...

    israeli occupation

    no but in this day and age an economic or PR war is much much more effective than a military struggle. tell me which method is going to get palestinian independace faster: 1) Suicide Bombings 2) Peaceful civilian blockading of israeli tanks 3) arab blockading of mid east oil to israel...

    israeli occupation

    Bitstream its always been my opinion that muslim people in general should study more foreign history. The days of Saladin and Co are over for your people. If you have ever studied proper history ull see that the only resistance movements which were ultimately successful long term were...

    israeli occupation

    Its an exercise designed to make you understand that there are much worse occupiers out there than israel. Palestinians have the unbelievable opportunity of actually having a rational occupier who will negotiate if given the invitation. DO you think russians, serbians ever gave chechans...
