>>the world is voting with its money on China<< Care to elaborate? I see plenty of red today on my list of Chinese stocks. How are your US homebuilder shorts doing? Still way under water I see, but it looks like the latest run may have finally topped. >>as if China may save the world from tyranny and despair<< Like when China supported Pol Pot to the bitter end? Jeez, Jay, give us a break. The US is currently in a controversial situation, but China is hardly an angel. >>On second look at the screen, about that NEM, gad, what's up?<< The "orderly decline" of the US dollar continues. I've been adding some GG.

Well, I enjoyed the gloating for a while. It was fun to sprint past G, but in marathons, sprinting is fun but very tiring. Now, Q has sagged back to 380 while G has steadily plodded on to 430. That's okay. Meanwhile, you probably didn't see that Irwin Jacobs said that they are planning to turbo-charge their dividend payments because they have a load of cash they don't need. So, the idea you have of "no distribution" seems AWOL. Already, we have been receiving tasty morsels for three years. Mqurice
