Hedge Fund Tracking: Moore Capital Management (Louis Bacon), Q3 2008

would you place the same restrictions on all activities involving the probability of downward movement in value? you take all actions in life the same way? if you garden, would you cover/protect young tender seedlings from wind or cold? do you carry umbrella, jumper cables or other infrequently used devices when you leave home? you never use odds in your decision process?

Coal's Dark Days Are Over

i agree with F. Banks comments on coal. for longer than most think/hope, oil, nat gas, and coal will remain the energy staples for the economic world. ALTs in their various forms will be victims of capacity, money, time. environmental improvement through conservation and forms of user/provider efficiency are the most likely leverage points for our new economic paradigm.
