Jay, do you mean that if one guy has USD100 grand in the bank being paid the usual interest rates (next to nothing to day) he is -in fact- making his money available for you to that what you said you will?

Hello Jay, the model portfolio Message 16830817 is at precisely USD 299,500 gross value.

Given that we owe JYen 13,100,000 + interest, totalling USD 112,500, we are then net net USD 187,000, on original stake of USD 200,000, or a loss of 6%.

Still, better than minus 20%.

We can always re-denominate our accounting to Argentine Peso, in which case we show an enormous gain:0)

Chugs, Jay
