Which Bank to Short Sell Now!

If your editor was a trader, the big trade we’d take a swing at now would be to bet against the banks again.

But make no mistake, when we mention the word ‘bet’ we mean it. We’re not talking about rigorous fundamental analysis that we do for Australian Small-Cap Investigator or Australian Wealth Gameplan. And neither are we talking about the type of technical analysis our Slipstream Trader Murray Dawes uses.

We’re talking the kind of bet that you’d make at the TAB. The kind of bet where you take a quick glance at the form guide and then shove a few bucks on it.

Primer for Mr. Kohn: Bond Prices and Interest Rates Move Inversely

by Kris Sayce on March 26, 2010

Do you know what? Some days we’re not sure whether to laugh or really laugh.

Yesterday, as we took a break from cobbling together the March issue of Australian Small-Cap Investigator, we glanced over a speech given by Donald Kohn, vice chairman of the US Federal Reserve.

Look, read the whole thing for youself by clicking here. To be honest, it’s a joke from start to finish, but it’s worth reading so you’ve got some idea about the brain power of the clowns running the show.

Take this as an example:

by Kris Sayce on March 19, 2010

Your editor writes from the sickbed this morning *cough*, so don’t be surprised if we cut things a little short *sniffle*.
