It would be foolish and unprofitable to purchase Greek debt for 40 cents on the dollar and then to have the value of that debt sink to 4 percent of face value.

However, if a person purchased Greek debt at 30 cents on the dollar and then sold it to Hillary's SIL at 40 cents on the dollar, one could make a lot of money fast.

So the key question then becomes, not who lost money speculating in Greek debt, but who might have profited.

You’re on to something, and it reminds me of Mrs. Bill’s cattle futures bribe. The briber puts money on both sides of a trade. They keep the losing side and shift the winning side to Mrs. Bill’s account.
