Repair a thin pool
This is a great 60 minutes piece on China’s housing bubble. The middle class is turning towards real-estate for investment so builders are constantly putting up new buildings, developments and cities. But with only a privileged few buying multiple apartments, there is nobody to occupy these new developments who remain ghost towns for months and […]

Read MoreI posted a little while ago about a Coursera class I took which covered financial analysis done with Python. The course was called Computational Investing, Part I.

Read MoreAn overall very low volume day. Feels like everyone took a breather and a back seat trying to see where this was going. A complete loss of momentum is not what you want in the middle of what people considered a recovery. As usual, main stream media was very quick at making the last three […]
Read MoreBig day on the board. There was a fed announcement today and another rate cut. 75 basis points this time so the new rate is 2.25%. I didn’t read the entire policy but it seems like the decision was far from unanimous and that 2 member wanted even less the 75 points, making 3/4 the […]
Read MoreA lot of people (including me) were expecting a positive open but BSC negative news quickly put the fear back in the market and down it was. I always find entertaining how mainstream media goes from “we are finally bouncing of the bottom” to “Doomsday!” in just 24hrs. The news and tone was clearly negative […]
