I don't know if I buy into that 66 year cycle or not.

Firstly, he does not use 66 years but varies a bit. Second, he presumes Asia was dominant in 1852. Third, the US, if anything, should become more pre-eminent in the coming decade because of Asian decline yet he has Asia as the next power. Certainly, adverse war conditions could affect US economy but global economies being as they are Asia would not benefit from US economic distress. Rather, the "United States of Europe" appear better placed to supplant the US if any do in the possible coming change of dominance.

I cannot continue the stream of consciousness, I'm afraid. My market software is backing up and I find I'm typing 3 sentences only to go back and re-type 2 of them because the keyboard locked up while the market software took over the CPU, I guess.

Hm. It seems to have finished.

I don't disagree with Dave nor anyone else, it's just a different approach. I don't have the emotional make-up to play for the Big Hit. Base hits won't get me in the Hall of Fame but going for the home runs have often put me in the neighborhood of the poorhouse.
