Managed to dig up the tickets from my inbox. €46 each, which is what, 39 quid? You can get 2 beers at Wembley for that these days - which is perhaps the most crazy bit of this whole story.

If memory serves, the organisers managed to get Deep Purple to fill in for them. The Kooks and Kasabian also showed up as planned, so not a complete waste of an afternoon. Yet, it really sucked not seeing them and not knowing whether or not I would've another chance in the future.

An Oasis reunion would be nothing short of amazing news. Despite my age, I've never seen them live, and not for lack of trying. I had tickets to see them in Milan in August 2009, on what should've been the last show of their Dig Out Your Soul Tour. Except, the cunts split up 2 days before that gig.

It wasn’t just US government bonds that attracted attention. Goldman Sachs expanded its investments in pass-through RMBS, increasing its holdings from $6.7bn in Q1 to $12.7bn, now accounting for 9.5% of its total AFS portfolio.

Quite the reshuffling of AFS securities happening across US banks. Among 43 banks we analysed, JP Morgan increased its holdings the most in Q2, adding just over $30bn - mostly USTs. On the flip side, BofA slashed its holdings by almost $22bn. www.risk.net/risk-quantum...

Some banks binge on US Treasuries while Goldman doubles down on RMBSs
