The Weekender

This week on FT Alphaville,

- The US labour market declined.

- PrimeX went mainstream, and we explained why.

- Banks remained mysteriously full of second mortgages.

- European stress tests got more stressful.

- Correlation was still really high.

- And in sovereign ratings, it’s 1990s high.

- We dealt with a global Triffin dilemma.

- ETFs and derivatives were explained, using shoes.

- UK fund managers’ woes continued.

- Finland had something to say — again — about Greek losses…

- … which were shown to be less (or more?) than they seem.

- Banks’ accounting went through the rabbit hole.

- The comments on this post were better than the post itself.
