Opec Threatens Cuts - or "Daddy Bush and the Arabs Took Your Money Again"

Recipe for making money when you are otherwise losing your ass:

1. Convert your money to Euros or Yen in a huge way. In the process of doing this entice people to get short these currencies so that you can jam them and they help you to take the dollar lower, faster.

2. Come out with lots of bogus reporting about how suddenly, over night, the 140 million people in China decided to take things easy and that their economy went from accelerating rocket ship to slow boat from China..

3. Using derivatives in combination with the bogus media spin campaign, force down the value of every commodity as much as you can. If you cant force it down then at least hold it back as in the case of gold/silver.

4. Using the money you converted to Euros which is now worth a lot more dollars, start buying up the commodities which are now cheap.

Later on a good way to make money will be to buy up beautiful homes and even whole cities and companies, at 10 cents on the dollar, using your Euros and Yen, but that will come later after the US is forced to repudiate the debt and the dollar is essentially worthless.

Then the people of China that are running out of water and air will have some place to move too. And the people that raped the US of its assets will move to islands in the South Pacific or the the hills of Switzerland.
