I have said in passing, many passings

"the market will always screw the most folks in the harshest way at the most inconvenient time"

an example would be now, over a 3-days weekend

<<I smell the sour scent of panic building>>

... I sense something biblical.

I am readying to buy gold, and buy more gold, and then buy much more gold.

Should January be indicative of the year's trend, we are in deep poo

Government bonds, the yen, and the buck are the only things rallying today.

Globalstar/GSAT up. People like SPOT. When times get desperate, it's great to have a little device which has a button to push "0800 GET ME OUT". They must be selling like hot cakes as people prepare for problems.

QCOM, with a mountain of money, solid cash flow, huge market development to enjoy and customers with a great need for mobile cybespace should do well.

In times of trouble, people give up a lot before they give up their booze and smokes. Nowadays, people are more dependent on their cyberphone than their booze or smokes. They will give that up last - it's their lifeline if not their dominant reality. Watch people as soon as they are stopped and on their own. They don't pull out their little gold totem to fondle and comfort them. They pull out their mobile cyberspace device, peering at the little screen, which will soon be replaced with QUALCOMM's Mirasol screens so they can actually see it.
