just in in-tray from commodity god,

Player #1: Several centers are already gearing up for this once in a century opportunity. America has dominated commodity trading for over 100 years. US politicians may be about serve up on a silver platter [pun intended] the opportunity for others to break into the industry. There are several stunned groups [stunned because they cannot believe the gift they are being offered by Senator Smoot] and centers leaping to take up the opportunity.

Commodities and investors will move out of the US. There may be a correction and a lag, but what an opportunity for both investors [to buy if commodities drop temporarily] and for new exchanges. Buy the commodities and the new exchanges IF Senator Smoot is successful. Short the US exchanges.

BTW: Do NOT have a US pension fund. US pension funds will be further annihilated if they cannot protect themselves in an increasingly inflationary environment.


Player #2:
"Do NOT have a US pension fund. US pension funds will be further annihilated if they cannot protect themselves in an increasingly inflationary environment"

That's a very good point, xxx -- in looking at this solely from a self-directed investor's perspective, I tend to forget that the investment funds themselves and the people who will need to rely upon them for their retirement years are going to get left twisting in the wind if they have their hands tied -- that's going to contribute to the social upheaval that's already underway, and it will also drive the economic hardships further up the class structure
