cclapp: Very interesting commentary, some that will take some resolving of the "ifs", but still thought provoking. And, thanks for the links... Regards, LG

Doug: The Big powers have data we never see, first they squeeze the shorts then the margins get squeezed, they call it shooting fish in a barrel. Also note that when indexes drop 10% or more the Dollar falls too, they do a Forex parlay and come back in with cheap dollars. While the peons saw a 20% drop last July they didn't have an eye on the dollar index , the big powers got a 30% discount. This last correction also gave them another 5% discount, beyond what the indexes went to. It's not just the price of the stock but the relative price to what the dollar was worth before the move. Indexes only tell a half truth. Jim
