  • Kabuki Theater: Analyzing Bernanke's Senate Testimony [View article]
    Well, I mean I guess you can have your own estimates, but I mean you don't really need to estimate since the facts on it are readily available.

    The chart is accurate. There's actually a video that goes with it which shows the progression over time.

    There is a caveat here: traders are likely borrowing these specials from primary dealers who bid at special auctions to borrow from the Fed's SOMA portfolio...so the traders are a level removed from the Fed borrowing.

  • InterOil: Asset Sell-Down Or 100% Takeover? [View article]
    I sure did. And I still believe that the company is worth nearly nothing. A short position that doesn't pay in a year is no different than a long position that doesn't immediately go up. Things take time to play out. Bad timing is different from a flawed thesis. As anyone who knows the history of this company is no doubt fully aware, I am certainly not alone in my skepticism. That said, I have no positions whatsoever now.

    I think this deserves a re-read if you don't understand the danger of substituting depositless credit creation with deposit dependent credit creation. That is the point of this piece.
