energyplay, <<Chinese Math - Does anyone in China do this when estimating market size ? Or something like " If we 2.2% of 1 Billion people, that's 22 million widgets...">> (a) Capitalists playing with their own resources do not use Chinese Math; (b) Everyone playing with other people's money are certainly at least tempted to use Chinese Math and many do; and (c) They may have learned such Math from US Investment Banks such as Goldman Sachs etc, or from such institutions such as Harvard.
