Hello Jay... lol... it may be that educational institutions are the same all over.

On the topic of finding good jobs, my resume includes experience in positions of minimal productivity and maximum remuneration. Judging by your posts, perhaps your difficulty is that you appear to be over-qualified :o)

Hmmm... a party of concern. Speaks volumes. Perhaps your friends are not so much contra-leading-lagging indicators as they are demographic markers. For they sound amazingly like my friends. Although we are of a different class of glitz around here.

If your friends are looking for places to park capital, I have identified a very novel approach. While I am preparing my secret web site for the convenience of online direct debit payment, you can simply have them send me a check <g>

>>much deeper into what we are already << My chips are on this square.

But what is stirring the blood in my veins at the moment is the very paralysis of indecision that you are describing. If your leading-lagging-contra demographic marker friends are indeed indicative of anything, then we are at or near a point of maximum contraction in available capital.

Which reeks of opportunity.

Not the simian-throws-darts-and-gets-rich-quick kind of opportunity. More like the careful sighting of shadows at range 3000 yards through a gyroscopically stabilized super-sniper scope kind of opportunity.

Or one can merely lie in wait as the targets get closer and use a less expensive scope at closer range.

I've tossed out the "V" as a recovery hypothesis. More probably it will be a www. recovery (dot gov). And in this long and grueling ordeal, we will need a different strategy of nimble allocation and opportunistic foraging.

Good hunting Jay. I am actively staking out new territory and will likely put a hummer back onto the roads in the next few months. If it doesn't come back, well... we can add this to your Global Crossing as food for jesting this time next year.

Your FWIW seems interesting. A point of question is "in which currency would you short the Gold?"

John.
