    Al-Queda and Iraq Link

    Here my take. Saddam and bin Laden don't really see eye to eye for Bin Laden's quest is to create an atmosphere of hate between one faith against the infidels. Saddam is just a plain ass#$ole.

    Goldman Sachs to hand out pink slips

    Riskless, you say that the opportunity is potentially in the fixed income options. How can an individual trader take advantage of this potential. Move to Chicago, apply for an option seat and be on the floor? That would go against the huge tide that is happening in the marketplace today-slow...

    Trading Kurtosis

    I think he is saying that the models being used underestimate the probability of the "100 yr storm " happening. As such, he does not mind taking these aymetrical bets where he might lost a majority of the time but will still come out ahead.

    Bond Futures

    Is the bond market expecting powell to put forth an unconvincing speech at the UN?
