- Midweek, we looked for some recession proof stocks - and found some in comic books and video games
- The FSA added to the regulatory alphabet soup with RINGA, “relevant information not generally available”
- while another Aussie scoundrel popped up down under and banks cut back on their taxi spending
- On Thursday, we wondered whether oil had out-bubbled tech and if negative equity really drove foreclosures
- and pondered the cost of chasing insiders and the outlook for Agflation
- The leveraged loan clear-out continued
- and Erik Sirri spooked the markets
- On Friday, Alistair Darling saved the British housing market
- while uber-bear Albert Edwards invoked Freddie Krueger
- John Kemp said people were calling oil all wrong
- and we launched our quest to find the next Helen Thomas
Thanks for helping us win a Webby!
Thank you to all who voted and commented - FT Alphaville has been honoured at the Webby Awards, taking both the judges’ panel and the People’s Voice awards in the business blog category.
There is just one problem, however. We have to give a five-word acceptance speech, and we are stuck for ideas. We received some good suggestions so far - like “Neil is just logging in” - but we have not made a final decision yet. So drop us a line at alphaville@ft.com
