Agree wholeheartedly.

Have been buying more SKF in the last few days.

Sold original FXP position bought in mid70s at mid 90s after holding about 2 1/2 weeks. Looking to get back in, and will truckjack Mq's Tonka if it ever gets in 70s again. Will probably buy some in low 80s, where it seems headed.

Bought SRS which will also become as juicy.

In a word, macro has not changed nor has the prospect of the coming direness sunk in at elemental gut level. When a Treasury Sec. says the worst has not yet come close to happening and the market shrugs him off, then I know fools are still in control. And when Abelson doesn't even mention it, well......al of which is peachy and fine because it gives us additional time to refine strategies, do the necessary..

BTW, good friend bought big manse super cheap, tried to tap into his munis to pay, found out Friday he couldn't do it thanks to auction BS mentioned in your linked article. Talk about pissed.

900 million people, are three-and-a-half times the size of the United States and 10 times the size of India. 30 million Km2 (11.6 million square miles). It is the second largest continent in the world after Asia. It stretches from the shores of the Mediterranean in the north to the Cape of Good Hope in the south.

This is going to be brought into the world economy. No one is looking but the impact will be huge.

99 percent of the world's chrome resources, 85 percent of its platinum, 70 percent of its tantalite, 68 percent of its cobalt, and 54 percent of its gold, among other minerals.
