… it puzzles me slightly why gecko seems to have got so stuck on my comment a while ago that i used to be a market-maker.
? i wonder what he finds so remarkable / odd about it? …. it’s not that exotic, just a job like any other, & i’m sure there are a whole load of different occupational histories represented within the pool of folks who post on this board, some in the financial sector and some not.
… in my own case, it was a pretty long time ago, and neither here nor there in relation to EUA and its prospects. back in the 1980s, i worked for a large american investment bank, as a market maker in OTC FX derivatives…. ancient history…
i tend to presume gecko keeps harking on about it, mixed in with his repeated personal abuse of mr_w, b1ll, etc, because there simply isn’t that much newsworthy that can be said about EUA these days. since they got that placing away, may not be that much significantly happening here until circa dec/jan/feb (v v approx, lol!) when they will probably need to think about another fundraising.
