Quants: The Alchemists of Wall Street (Marije Meerman, VPRO Backlight 2010)
Tuesday, July 24th, 2012
Here is a great documentary on Quants. Those genius mathematicians that come up with financial products to be sold to investors. Some of the formulas they come up with are so complicated that the people that sell them don’t understand them.
The investors do not understand the consequences of these financial products as well. Well, heck even the Quants do not know the true extent of the consequences if these products react to unforeseen circumstances. Some of these products were responsible for causing the 2008 crash due to complicated credit default swaps and mortgage backed securities.

Shorting NASDAQ Decline , AMD Puts and Silver Bull ETF – VBLOG5
Wednesday, June 20th, 2012
I am going to short the NASDAQ and at the same time PUT options on AMD for Jan.2014 with strike price of $4.00 and also long on silver with ETF.
The above trades would have to wait though if the Federal Reserve decides to print more money and lift the markets of course. If Ben Bernake does do that then the decline probably won’t happen until after new year (Feb. 2013).
