Hi Lester, I have found the human species is pretty bad at predictions. I once went back through years of Bob Bishops newsletters. He never seemed to get the gold market right, but few do.

An interesting fact of experimental psychology, is that they have found people with equally balanced right and left brains can predict better than people with a larger relative right or left brains.

So one needs a gigondo left brain to get a PHD in economics, but then if their right brain is small they cannot do what they were educated to do ---prdict-lol.

From what I have read Keynes was so smart he operated at the level of Einstein. Two of the unsung intellectual heros of the last centruy were Keynes and Max Weber (few even know who is). A testamonial to our education system.

I told both my daughters the most important concept they can ever understand is existentialism, because once understood, it provides the keys to unlock the jail doors of dogma.

Last night my younger daughter was writing a paper on global warming and explaining to me how carbon dioxide and methane prevent either short or long radiation waves from going back into space, so they are trapped here-lol.

It is gratifying to see my daughter zoom right past me-lol.

If this is a secular long term bull market we will loose little by standing aside until things shake out. There will always be a deal to buy.

Glad to know there is at least one other existentilist on earth. If I end up in an old age home I will be pretty lonely I think-lol.

The world just seems different to me then most people-lol.

Cheers,

Chuck
