Trading Equity, FX, Interest Rate or Credit?
I am wondering which one of these four is currently the hottest, and help banks earn most profits.

It depends. Why are you asking?
2009 was a blockbuster year for rates/fx. Looks like 2010 is also going to be a good yr given JPMorgan's knock out fixed income Q1 results. Based on hiring/business planning, banks are all piling back into equities aswell. It's all difficult to say given the amount of uncertainty going on in the markets and the difficulty in comparing apples to pears, but right now the clear winners seem to have been FX and rates.
Rates is always hot with a steep curve. FX with volatility. Credit before an economic boom. Equities in a bull market.
Everything is cyclical. The trick is timing.
