Yiwu, <<I really don't understand how those high-tech companies can keep doing business like this>>

Many of them cannot, and therefor will not. A lot have already gone, and many more will follow in their path.

It is a cashflow game many are playing. as they slowly mine the field with equity booms and debt kabooms, and edge themselves to the cusp of the abyss.

Isn't capacity utilization math wonderful? Ford is a leasing company and GM is a finance company, the house is a credit card, and the wallet is an ATM ;0)

The extraction of Japanese wealth and the mining of US balance sheets will continue until there is no more to pilfer and an open pit to fill in.

One should hoard gold, retreat to Loonie, accumulate resources, and do not hesitate to vote with one's wallet.

Chugs, Jay
