[edit] Interest rate hedge strategy

I have no idea what exactly this is about, but it's from a series of rather questionable edits by User:Mister doodi which all look strongly like original research to me - this article even mentions that the strategy was invented by Mister Dodi. -- Ferkelparade π 19:40, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as Original Research. However hedge strategies are real enough (Hedge (finance)), where a merge of anything a content expert deems valuable might be usable. Fiddle Faddle 21:52, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
• Comment I looked on Google and at least 3 companies mention using "interest rate hedge strategy". Whether it is the same strategy mentioned in the article, I don't know. I think the article could stand a section on why the interest rate hedge strategy is significant and perhaps the history, but if it is legitimate, I don't think it is OR since it can be found in other independent sources.Ratherhaveaheart 22:02, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

• Strong Delete as obvious OR. The google search is immaterial, since the phrase is certainly not inconceivable. Eusebeus 15:06, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
