Your comments about HK are very interesting.

What is the take on the revaluation of the HK/USD peg? Will they support it?

I am getting told by those who should know that they are and will defend the peg.

China being affected, as a second order perturbation, um, does this mean they are keeping their longs on Chinese stocks?

Agree, crisis is at hand, in fact for some bankers, mortgage companies, etc., and for some of the defunct ones it has already passed.

TJ, I am not that doom. This market can be rescued. Crisis is your friend. But the truth is oil heading to $80s in the next 6 months perhaps, not even touch $100 at this moment. We might see some high-tech rallying. Gonna love AMD, EBAY, SNDK, TXN here.
