I love Barron’s “Big Money” poll. Most people read Barron’s looking for investment ideas. So twice a year, Barron’s gives readers what they think they want. The magazine conducts a poll of money managers, asking them about their favorite investments. I look forward to the Big Money poll… but for different reasons than you might think.

An interest piece on Barron’s suggests that all-round economic genius and former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan may be shy about public scrutiny of Ph.D. dissertation.

According to a new book by Robert Auerich, Deception and Abuse at the Fed: Henry B. Gonzalez Battles Alan Greenspan’s Bank, nobody seems to be able to track down the Maestro’s dissertation, which led to Greenspan obtaining a doctorate in economics from NYU.
