Spar at the bar in Davos: Salmon vs. Scaramucci
By Chris ClairReuters blogger Felix Salmon meets his nemesis, hedge fund manager and philanthropist Anthony Scaramucci, in a face-to-face showdown at the Hotel Europe’s Piano Bar in Davos.
“It seems to me that any financial product which has to be sold so aggressively is … there’s something a little bit wrong with that,” Salmon says.
“You’re a financial journalist, OK? Every financial product is sold and not bought,” Scaramucci replies.
That’s about in the middle of the exchange. There’s plenty of good stuff on both ends of that, including an extended back-and-forth about this column by Salmon last November. Check it out.

1st, I’m not a Wall St guy, but an individual investor. You tried to sell this as an expose of a sleazy hedge fund manager, but Scaramucci completely flipped this on you just by being himself. You come off as a typical upper class English douche, he’s a self-made American man. That’s why we’re here and you’re there. If you need an explanation of the last comment, refer to later 20th century history.
