hello pezz,
(i) re gold god - i did turn on the red chip (china shares) god, internet god, and gods i no longer remember, all in good time, before the times turned bad.
i would turn on the paper gold god as and when, and after, the physical gold god.
the gods understand, for they made the rules.
(ii) january 1st 2011 here in thailand, and all feels as it did yesterday
i now look forward to january 28th, chinese lunar new year holiday, and then to seriously dig into work for the year 4709
(iii) i stare out from my working spot
thinking about this
and this fahrenheit 451, the temperature of burning paper
i think this is all we need to keep in mind for 2011, between the ever enthusiastic japanese, needful chinese, foolish-again euros, and the cratering usa states and municipalities.
some time ahead the main event shall be, the cratering of the usa federal books. that is saved for another year.
(iv) in such a setup ...
(a) higher frequency wagering by dark pools of real and borrowed and printed capital, with only one goal, to make us poorer faster, unless we game the game to get richer faster
(b) higher amplitude of price swings, to make us poorer or richer, but by larger wallopings
(c) everything is tee-ed up by all the smarties and wannabe smarties, every which ways, long, short, straddle, strangle, death grip, wiggle free, whatever
ready or not, players, game starts on 3, 2, ... |
