One Gulf Bank has run awry of "a derivatives" trade to the tune of $742 million.
Can we guess that this was oil futures related? Someone sell massive puts, on the view that oil was going ... sky high (pun intended)?
Currency? A little too much enthusiasm for the Euro?
Who knows .... somehow I doubt it is CDS.
Update: Someone else doesn't know how to hedge their book? (Shaking head)
