If these guys could time the market successfully, I think some brokerage houses would love to hire successful market timers.

Your in LA La Land, Technologyguy. I got more important things to do these days than talk to Poloyannas like you. You know what I did today: I bought another 100 cans of canned Tuna Fish and another 150 cans of Sardines for my family's survival! I made enough money for a lifetime over the last 17 years. I'm interested in survival now. I have 3 sons, a wife who I worship, and two brothers and my mother who I owe everything to. If I was you, I'd worry more about accumulating drinkable water than your portfolio.

>>I don't buy into the EOTWAWKI scenario for North America.<<

Nor do I. But what about Asia?

I posted the following inquiries on the Asia Forum thread:

Message 10414308
Message 10454134

...And got no response. Why do you suppose? Lack of interest in the question? Lack of knowledge?

Anyone here willing to risk making a forecast of Y2K's economic impact on Asia?
