Hello Don, welcome! This BBR thread has folks from USA, Canada, Japan, Germany, New Zealand, ex-Australia/Israel, ex-Brazil/now Thailand, Malaysia, Britain, and Hong Kong/China.
We have got bears, bulls, pigs, chip munks, sheep, and a weird animal called Mq (a/k/a Maurice Winn):0)
We have got fascists, conservatives, liberals, libertarians, socialists, communists, and somebody called Raymond Duray:0)
The topics, when we are on topic, revolve around right, wrong, is, is not, gold, fiat, war, peace, natural gas, oil, emerging markets, other markets, valuations, currencies, relativism, Qualcomm, CDMA, beach, fish, and whether Chinese crawfish is garbage.
Pezz and I keep each other informed about what we are trading, denominated in tranches, dollops, wallops, slices, and slivers.
On this, Message 18562768 , there is no longer any urgency for financial reform, because we are all heading for the rocks of Depression, and none of any effort will make much difference. The volatility will be high, screaming loud, killing aplenty, and taking will be good.
Even if we are not headed for Depression (with inflation/deflation flavoring and stagnation spice), we would do well by assuming that we are, for the moment.
If we do not come out of this mess twice as rich as we are now, we are not paying attention to what the Force is telling us;0)
