Asia knuckles down to get algorithms right
By Jeremy Grant – Financial Times
Tracing a 7,800km route from Japan past the Philippines and across to Singapore and Malaysia, a new underwater cable costing $430m opened for business this week aimed at automated traders. The “Asia Submarine-cable Express” will loop up to Hong Kong in a month’s time, shaving three milliseconds off the speeds offered by existing cables and providing the shortest link between the Tokyo and Singapore bourses.

Don’t be fooled by short-selling bans
Gillian Tett – FT.com
When the latest market squall hit the eurozone last month, the governments of Spain and Italy responded with a time-honoured defence; as panic mounted, they banned the short selling of shares in banks, in a desperate bid to shore up confidence. One month later, it might seem as if this achieved some respite; eurozone stocks have stabilised, as the European Central Bank has pledged fresh support. But is there any evidence that short-selling bans have any long term effect? Or can they potentially make a bad situation worse? If a new paper published in a report from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is correct, the answer is sobering.

To QE3, or not to QE3?
That is the question. Ever since the minutes from last month’s FOMC meeting were released Wednesday, the pundits have been pondering. Are there clues hidden in code somewhere in the minutes? Has the committee taken a more “wait and see” attitude? Is Mr. Bernanke using the stock market as a barometer for the economy? There seems to be something in there to suit everyone. Sort of like a horoscope. **DA
QE3 Not A Sure Thing
Evan Schnidman, Seeking Alpha
Most analysts see the minutes of the July 31-August 1 FOMC meeting as indicating a third round of asset purchases beginning in September, but I am less certain. The Committee has moved toward a dovish consensus, but this does not mean they are ready to act or that action would necessarily be in the form of quantitative easing.
http://jlne.ws/O6dK5y
**DA: Not one, but three options for easing, according to the article – adjusting forward guidance, more QE, or stimulate lending. I read that as “talk it off the ledge,” “throw good money after bad,” or “recreate the credit bubble.”
Fed minutes show active discussion of QE3
MarketWatch
Members of the Federal Reserve got closer to pushing the button on a new round of bond purchases even as a less-aggressive step of altering language on a low-rate pledge seems to be in the works, according to minutes from the most recent meeting released Wednesday.
