Job Interview Questions: Plus 500
I gave someone a quick job interview today. It was kind of miserable except the kid was enthusiastic and came with a lot of (what he thought were) good ideas.
Chief amongst his good ideas was to short XRP – the crypto-currency associated with Ripple.
His case was primarily “have you read the SEC complaint?”
Anyway my concern wasn’t that. It was how do I actually execute this trade? What broker would I leave my collateral with to do this and why should I trust this broker.
The problem is acute. I am most likely to win in this trade in the event of a collapse in crypto-currencies generally – and that is the time the broker is most likely to default and wind up not paying me.
I can imagine it being a really bad trade whatever the market outcome. If I am wrong and crypto just keeps going up I will lose money. If I crypto collapses I can’t collect my winnings – indeed I just lose my collateral.
Okay – his thought – do it at a broker which is not crypto-dominated. He thought Plus 500 which he told me was ASIC regulated. (ASIC is the Australian securities regulator.)
The ASIC regulated status I was amused by. They have never been particularly good at hunting debacles before they happened. And beside Plus 500 is an Israel/Cyprus operation listed in London – and is rather hard for ASIC to regulate properly. I could just imagine the ASIC officer trying get a holiday in Cyprus on the public purse because he wanted to do a site visit…
Whatever – he was convinced.
And so I left him a task. Could he analyse Plus 500. It is a listed company. Could he tell me whether I should own the stock or whether I should trust it with my precious collateral.
The accounts are public after all.
Does anyone think this is a reasonable task for a job applicant?
Asking for a friend.
