On the contrary,the quicker he goes to war,the better off the markets will be,as long as he finished the job and the US wins big time.
Concerning buying other companies,yes, there are some that are very cheap, but they can become cheaper. I bought one large US company and I plan to dump it Monday even though long term I think it's great. It even pays a 5.5% dividend.
With the trusts,they are smaller and more nimble and therefore have more room to grow.

Hi George,

Sitting on about 1 third cash, lots of trusts and PM's.

I'm not concerned about interest rates too much. The US can't afford to increase them now and if we indeed have stagflation (groceries up, hard assets down) coming (my first pick) interest rates won't go up in the US and ours cannot diverge too much. If we see inflation (which doesn't appear to be the case) then maybe.

BBD.B LOL.. I'm still looking for my 3.27 call for a dead cat bounce...

regards
Kastel

George: Your $6.00 MOT is looking like it might arrive sooner than you think. MOT hit a 10 year low today. Amazing market right now. I expect that there is a lot of people in a lot of distress. The trusts appear to be the last safe haven.
