REVERSE ALPHA

Freddie, Fannie, GE Capital, S&L's etc produce negative alpha and piss away the money.

"Performance"  models don't have to be regulated...... same problem about kids and participation vs Competition....It's purpose is misplaced....and will become uncompetitive in the market...


An Attraction Model Regulates Itself

A predator Model Needs to be Regulated

Some organizations are performance driven.....others need to be government regulated

That is the message that is not being Taught......

The reason Many wall street execs don't get it because portfolio performance is not their business - Selling and trading is

Jack Bogle / Elliot Spitzer and the concept of moral relativism.
