Fear Or A Lack Of Discipline

When is $18.6 Million Just Not Worth The Effort
I have noted with some amusement that financial commentators have gone a flutter in their nether regions at the thought of George Soros trading the $A and how it is reported that he made a profit of $18.6 million.

Gilligan And The Prediction Of Markets
With some folks now proclaiming that Google trends can predict markets…..after they have moved which does defeat the purpose of a prediction system I thought it worth revisiting something I wrote awhile ago about the idiocy of predictive systems.
