DealBook – The SALT hedge fund conference, held over four days at the Bellagio resort, is a lot of things – it’s an ideas conference, a Wall Street bacchanal, a power-networking event.
It is also, with its vaunted lineup of speakers on stage in the hotel’s grand ballroom, a place to absorb the musings of senior Wall Street money managers and Washington politicos. On Wednesday and Thursday, panelists weighed in on varied topics including the risks of situation in Syria and investment opportunities in the shipping industry.
