Jun 02, 2010: The summer is upon us, as evident by the children who were cartwheeling out of school this past Friday.

Goldman Sachs CDO deal?
Filed Under (Hedge Funds) by Admin on 21-05-2010
Buyers, sellers and users beware of opposite outcomes and opposing forces. What if the Abacus and Timberwolf synthetic CDO deals had not blown up? Brilliant buyers now gurus for their perspicacious positioning? Goldman Sachs excoriated for not disclosing to shorts that winning longs bet against them? Would there be a case? Would it be on front pages? Rely on dealmakers or do your own homework? The lawyers can figure out if any securities laws were broken but for investors the message remains as always: caveat emptor, caveat venditor, caveat utilitor.
Would Michael Lewis have written “The Big Long” on credit experts picking off bears wandering into the doomsday machine? Or Gregory Zuckerman with the “The Worst Trade Ever” how an obscure merger arbitrage specialist, John Paulson, went out of business style drifting with subprime CDOs? Magnetar sucked into a black hole? Dr. Michael Burry back on double shifts at the hospital? What if Paulson HAD bought and the next day reversed to the other side. Would it have changed ACA’s loan portfolio selection choices or the bond “rating”?

Goldman Sachs hedge fund CDO?
Filed Under (Hedge Funds) by Admin on 10-05-2010
Buyers, sellers and users beware of opposite outcomes and opposing forces. What if the Abacus and Timberwolf synthetic CDO deals had not blown up? Brilliant buyers cited as gurus for their perspicacious positioning? Goldman Sachs called to testify for not disclosing to loser shorts that winning longs were betting against them? Would there still be a case? Would it be on front pages? Rely on deal arrangers or do your own homework? Caveat emptor, caveat venditor, caveat utilitor.
Would Michael Lewis still have written “The Big Long” on credit experts picking off bears wandering into the doomsday machine? Or Gregory Zuckerman on the “The Worst Trade Ever” how a merger arbitrage specialist, John Paulson, went out of business style drifting with subprime CDOs? Magnetar sucked into a black hole?

Happy Mother’s Day

May 09, 2010: We wish you a warm and happy Mother’s Day. It is a fantastic day to acknowledge the celebration of motherhood and selfless positive contributions of mothers to our birth, growth and development. We all know that our moms do a thankless job. So let us seize this opportunity to thank them wholeheartedly.
We also express gratitude to Anna Marie Jarvis (1864-1948), who, following the death of her mother on May 9, 1905, devoted her life to establishing Mother’s Day as a national and later as an international holiday.
