To REW: Would Lutefisk and Haggis be efficient? Peter is partly of scottsih origin, so he might appriciate such a deal even if it is not.

To Siri: Takk for hyggelige ord om NHH, og en riktig god jul til deg også.

Fantastisk! NHH is a fabulous institution with a track record of great scholars- well done! If the lutefisk market ‘dries’ up, there is always a great supply of fresh rain! Lykke til! (og God Jul!)

I think that a lutefisk-burrito cross-hedge is not efficient. The price correlation between one commodity that tastes of wet chalk and the other that tastes of chilis and frijoles must be vanishingly small.

With exchange rates being as unstable as they currently are, the only rational way to get paid is in Lutefisk with a burritos-hedge.

Wait for my next blog entry, “Thirteen Ways of Looking at Lutefisk.”
