The Physics Of Wall Street
I have just finished wading through The Physics of Wall Street by James Owen Weatherall which tracks the impact of quantitative traders on both finance at large and Wall street in particular. As the title suggests it concentrates most on physicists who have made the leap into finance and with them have brought their impressive…

Nimble amoebas battle for world supremacy
I have no idea why I find this interesting. Whoosh!” bragged geneticist Michael Myre, spreading his fingers and pushing his hands away from his body. “That’s what they’ll do.” ‘Whoosh’ is not a word often applied to the slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum — affectionately called ‘Dicty’ by its devoted following of cell biologists and geneticists — but Myre,…

The Impact Of Fees
I have been pondering the return to the bad old days of financial planning as advocated by the big banks and in my discussions with people they find it hard to grasp the impact of fees upon investment returns. I think this is due to a basic innumeracy among people and I believe this is…

The Real Butlers of the .001 Percent
One of his first jobs was a two-year stint as the chief steward aboard the yacht of a sheik—basically, a butler at sea. The sheik wasn’t on his boat all that often, but when he did set sail, he liked to take the vessel “whoring,” as Bentley puts it. “The girls would all line up…
The Great Hedge Fund Rip Off Continues
One of the best wealth transference scams ever invented continues. The same thing can be said for the domestic funds management industry – particularly where superannuation is concerned.

Diary Of A Pro Punter
This is actually quite interesting. Tuesday The working week almost always commences on a Tuesday, when I’m generally in the office by 8.00am.(Editor’s note: This ‘office’ is in fact larger than most houses.
