Thanks I read it, and would like to add that the writer omits several points.

1. Interest rates are several times lower then in 1991
2. Inflation is about 1/2 from that of 1991
3. speed of money is substantially higher
4. the media was thinking of a very difficult war (not the professionals ..... military)
5. I do not remember that the US had at the time a trade surplus as the writes states

I only agree that we may rally 15% or so and then go back to relative normal situation.

As to the USD we may drop 5% after a reflex rally

Europe was in much better shape then from what it is now
