Perhaps it should be added that a system of making some kind of returns is not good enough to call an "edge". It is not difficult for treasury bond holders...
Whilst we are all thinking- and commenting- me thinks Franco is spot on. What is this "tradeable edge" that Neil purports to have captured? Best that Neil...
