Web 2.0: Financial Markets

O’Reilly’s Money:Tech conference in NY this week looks rather interesting. A number of items on theagenda caught my eye, not least “What Do Hedge Fund Managers Really Want?”. Hedge funds already have Bloomberg, Reuters and more piped to their desktops allowing the buy side traders to wade through masses of data. Hopefully, JP Rangaswami and Sean Park (both ex-Dresdner) have a view on how “better collaboration and better access to inexpensive data” will aid the buy side trader in his trading quest.

Off topic: via colleagues; HandDrawnShapes and moq.
