25 Apr 2008 - Another bit of older commentary but still very worthwhile. A couple of weeks ago, Linda Lowell at Housingwire recently wrote a great piece of commentary looking at how the past data that the rating agencies used was faulty or misinterpreted. Mainly she points to the fact that the mass amounts of mortgage data that went into the rating agencies models after securitization drowned out previous smaller amounts of data, especially data from the great depression. This should be required reading for anyone questioning how the rating agencies got it so wrong.

average $56 less than identical itineraries directly booked through airline Web sites or through online travel retailers like Expedia, Orbitz and Travelocity, according to Topaz International research released last week.Topaz said travel agency fares were less costly on nearly 95 percent of itineraries compared with the same itinerary available online to the public. However, Topaz said its research shows the savings gap has closed steadily since it initiated the research in 2001, when the chasm between online public fares and agency fares averaged $171. Though the $56 differential recorded in 2007 matches the lowest gap in 2005, corporate travel agencies have grown slightly in lower-fare reliability: Topaz said agency fares in 2001 were cheaper just over 93 percent of the time, a figure th

The benefit of making investment is known to each and every person who is a little serious about his/her personal finance and has some assets to invest.

I find it rather profitable to bank upon the agencies that offer solutions on investment instead of dealing it personally.
