Merrill Lynch CIO Comes To SC

One of Merrill Lynch’s top executives will be in Columbia, S.C. this week providing her thoughts on global financial markets.

Mary Ann Bartels – the company’s chief investment officer of portfolio strategies – will “outline the major areas she believes are driving change in the U.S., the markets and the world, offering information and insights that can help you make the most of what’s happening in the world.”

Bartels is expected to address the partial government shutdown in Washington, D.C. as well as the debt ceiling debate in her remarks.

This invitation-only event is being held at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center on Wednesday October 16 at 11:00 a.m. EDT. And guess what … given the vastness of his investment portfolio FITS’ founding editor Will Folks (a.k.a. Sic Willie) has scored an invite.

What can we say … he’s a mogul.

A seventeen-year veteran of Merrill Lynch, Bartels is “highly regarded for developing proprietary models for equity pairs trading and for her sector, industry and stock selection, as well as for her extensive work on hedge funds.” She has a pair of degrees from Fordham University.

She’s a real looker.

Seriously though, who actually would listen to anything anyone has to say from Merrill Lynch?

This is a company that the Federal government had to force Bank of America to buy/bailout before its own precipitous value drop off in the stock market.

Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for her to lecture on how to get the taxpayer to bail you out if you screw up?

Or even more appropriate, shouldn’t she just come and thank SC for producing Ben Bernanke that allowed the creation of funny money to bailout Merrill Lynch via B of A so she could continue to collect large executive salary sums on the backs of the little people?

Sounds like that would get her Merrill Lynched all right.

“FITS’s founding editor”

A third person’s third person. It’s either 6th or 9th person depending on whether you add or multiply.

Hey Sic, how many more layers can you stack on this third person onion? Not that I mind… you are a mogul, after all!
