    Bloomberg on BSC Collapse - New

    Interesting,and actually a good post.I've got to say when I first read the article I immediately thought it all sounded very dubious but if other similar trades go on that don't reap the windfall then it could have just been a good trade,maybe someone screwed on a massive long share position...

    Sovereign Funds buying REO's.

    I can see the obvious parallels but fundamentally I think it is different today. The Japanese sold because they had to.Had they been able to hold on I'm sure the assets would be worth a lot more today. These funds are in for the long term,if prices keep falling they'll just be able to get...

    Sovereign Funds buying REO's.

    Trading in Dubai

    Judging by the math you do not know the difference between a round trip and a contract traded. If according to you each trader is "banging out" 5k r/t's a day and there are 10 traders then: 5000 x 2 =10,000(lots per day) 10,000 x 10(traders) = 100,000 100,000 x 20(trading days) =...

    Pointless '*' rating system on each thread

    Does anyone actually pay any attention to how many stars a thread has received? Don't people read the thread title then decide if they are interested and want to read the content? Or see who started the thread to determine if it may contain meaningful debate or is likely a waste of time...

    Planning to buy a home soon

    If you can afford the place for sale at the moment and aren't stretching yourself i.e. if you can't find a tenant for your condo for a length of time and have to run two places (which you have to take into consideration),then there's no reason not to buy. All the people saying hold on,the...
