    Just released. "Smartest guys in the room" at Goldman took biggest bailout loan.

    Indeed! 15B at 0.01%...you just don't say no to that. At the very least you buy T-Bills with it and pat each other on the back.

    What strategies do you guys use?

    I'm afraid it doesn't make interesting reading...I've had some'' home runs'' ( F being the most recent )and I've had some catastrophic failures (BSC was a particularly depressing one).

    Accusations fly as Bank of Moscow gets record bailout

    I suppose, in these very strange economic times, it's just very naive of me to want businesses, large or small, to be held financially accountable for the decisions they make...

    Accusations fly as Bank of Moscow gets record bailout

    Imagine Citi Group, America's 3rd biggest bank, with a 27% stake held by the government, went hostlile and took over Goldman, Americas 5th biggest bank. Imagine the reason for going hostile was that GS and its management had been pissing the government off for a number of years.It soon...

    Lets face it, a Greek default will happen. They may not call it a default but it will be a default all the same. Throwing good money into these black holes is a waste. I do believe that Germany and France are working hard behind the scenes not so much to help Greece but to lay the ground...

Fred has had a rather poor start opening his career with some awful long picks at what may possibly be a long term market top. The shorts although a little in the green have not performed enough to make up for the longs and...
