Short USD Long Yen, Major Asian Currencies

Just an hour ago, US Dolloar (aka Treasury) is downgraded for the first time by US based agency - S&P. Though it has already been downgraded by the biggest investor in US economy - China. When this happened some 6 months ago, almost all my American Classmates at my Alternative investment class, in Kenan Flagler Business School, UNC were of the opinion that this is none-sense and nobody cares a damn about Chinese downgrade.

I argued a bit but then there were people, who believe that they have better knowledge of the financial world. This points out one of the biggest problems with US business Schools Graduates. They operate as just like Muslim Ghetto's and believes the world outside the ghetto is stupid. THANK GOD, I went to CEIBS to get broad outlook of world rather than narrow US based outlook of world.

Anyway, its time for some quick buck. I am sure many long-short macro funds would have milled millions by now.
