My favorite Downtown NYC arb blogger regains her sense of humor. A little insulting, a little paranoid. Fearless suggestion that Iran goes down in May - not so far-fetched if Bibi really did ask for bunker-busters and tankers(White House is apparently tap-dancing around that one) as some news reports are suggesting.

Amusing even though she should be slapped for her writing style.

 

Help me with the abbreviation. I hear downtown, NYC and "arb" and I am thinking "prop desk arb" or proprietary trading desk trader working in an arbitrage-based investment.

From a quick skim of some of those blog entries, I don't think we are on the same page...

 

She's an arbitrageur(and lawyer I think, hence the opaque syntax) at some boutique financial house near Wall Street - at least she indicated that in a very early post. There was some autobiographical narrative in the beginning, none too exciting. I find that I have to read everything about 3 times to see what she's on about, but her perspective is different from what I'm used to. And there's a strange ironic wit at work, too.
