We present them simply as “traders,” though in truth most are technically considered portfolio managers. There’s one word, however, that definitively describes each of the securities-industry standouts who make up this year’s Trader Monthly 100: flush. You needed at least $75 million in 2007 *income to make the cut. Five of the forces of nature on the pages that follow cleared 10 figures. One, John Paulson, made, at minimum, a staggering $3 billion, more income banked in one year than any trader — maybe any human being — ever. Paulson wasn’t alone. Smart subprime and related bets produced windfalls for a slew of other top traders, including Phil Falcone, Richard Perry and John Burbank. Our usual elephants, Jim Simons and Stevie Cohen, did their customary stomping, while a ferocious pack of Tiger Cubs also roared into the coliseum.   Technology was back as an investment theme — a good one if you were long the right names. Financials served you well — as long as you had shorted them. This year marks the fifth annual top-*earning-traders list since Trader Monthly debuted with its inaugural rundown (based on 2003 income) in the autumn of 2004 — and oh, how the years and AUMs have, respectively, flown and grown.    Along the way, we’ve published a few estimates that wound up being too high; others, more often, came in too low. But we continue to strive for the most reasonably accurate compensation ranges that vigorous reporting can produce. But enough about our hard work; it’s time for mambo number five. The trades have been cast, the calculations made. On with our countdown. And for the third straight year, we’ve got a new top dog. TOP 10John Paulson, New York, Paulson & Co.
