fabrice tourre

The 31-year-old Goldman Sachs vice president charged with securities fraud by the Securities and Exchange Commission today is Fabrice Tourre, a French graduate of Stanford who has worked at the Wall Street firm since July 2001.
In an email to a friend on January 23, 2007, the London-based trader called himself “The Fabulous Fab” and warned about the coming collapse in the subprime mortgage securities market, according to the SEC complaint. In the message, he also dramatically expresses his own lack of foresight about the consequences of his risky trading activity:
“More and more leverage in the system. The whole building is about to collapse anytime now… Only potential survivor, the fabulous Fab[rice Tourre]… standing in the middle of all these complex, highly leveraged exotic trades he created without necessarily understanding all of the implications of those monstrosities!!!”
Last December, the New York Times reported on Fourre’s role in helping create Abacus deals, which allowed investors to bet for or against mortgage securities through credit default swaps:
Mr. Egol and Fabrice Tourre, a French trader at Goldman, were aggressive from the start in trying to make the assets in Abacus deals look better than they were, according to notes taken by a Wall Street investor during a phone call with Mr. Tourre and another Goldman employee in May 2005.
On the call, the two traders noted that they were trying to persuade analysts at Moody’s Investors Service, a credit rating agency, to assign a higher rating to one part of an Abacus C.D.O. but were having trouble, according to the investor’s notes, which were provided by a colleague who asked for anonymity because he was not authorized to release them. Goldman declined to discuss the selection of the assets in the C.D.O.’s, but a spokesman said investors could have rejected the C.D.O. if they did not like the assets…
“Egol and Fabrice were way ahead of their time,” said one of the former Goldman workers. “They saw the writing on the wall in this market as early as 2005.” By creating the Abacus C.D.O.’s, they helped protect Goldman against losses that others would suffer.

Megan Fox s Thumb, It looks like Megan Fox’s thumbs are a hot topic again. As you can see in the pictures, they are quite…stubby.
With all of her assets people wanna focus on the thumbs? Seriously?
Fox, an Angelina Jolie wannabe (who also thinks she’s hotter than Jolie), has what many describe as “toe thumbs.”
There has been much written over the past couple of years about her digits, and I’m not quite sure why they have become the topic of conversation again, but alas, they have.

Colombo: Sri Lanka is taking steps to acquire LTTE’s assets in various countries and will utilise them for carrying out developmental activities in the country, Prime Minister Ratnasiri Wickremanayake has said.
He told Parliament yesterday that intelligence authorities were now gathering information about LTTE assets in various countries.
“Intelligence sources are gathering information on the assets of LTTE. Steps are being taken to bring those assets to Sri Lanka,” he said in reply to a query by Chief Opposition Whip Joseph Michael Perera.
Detained LTTE leader Kumaran Pathmanathan has revealed details about LTTE’s bank accounts and other details about the organisation, the Prime Minister said.
“As these assets belong to the people of the country, they need to be used for the development of the nation,” he said.
Wickremanayake said investigations have begun on the gold that was recovered from the LTTE.
“We have extracted valuable intelligence in this regard. The revelation of such information will hinder ongoing investigations,” the Prime Minister told the House.
