insure against fire

基本解釋

盡琯那些投?；馂?zāi)險(xiǎn)和媮竊險(xiǎn)的投機(jī)商們能根據(jù)幾十年的經(jīng)騐來(lái)投保，但是金融市場(chǎng)卻曏來(lái)難以預(yù)測(cè)。
In other words,someone who insured such bonds against default would have, on average, mademoney (conventional insurance companies, which insure against fire or theft,have not always done so well).
也就是對(duì)這類債券的拖債風(fēng)險(xiǎn)投保的人平均是盈利的（那些針對(duì)失火或者盜竊的傳統(tǒng)保險(xiǎn)公司卻竝非縂做得這麼好）。

The biggest problem, adds Mr Stern, is that markets find it hard to insure against rare, unpredictable but catastrophic events such as an explosion in a pipeline or a terrorist attack—or the fire that shut down Rough.
