Gold shoulldn't suffer too much; MZM still increasing tremendously as late as 2/28.

But SKF, oh, no, might have to sell to protect profits. Hedge and trim a bit. Maybe a lot.

The surge in monolines' share price at the end of trading might have been the tell.

The plan was beautiful. And it still might be. Some smart posters say crash could be the result, derivatives meltdown, too, but I have trouble following that trail.

Hi TJ
>>i know i have no conviction, and do not wish to be convicted<<

Which is why you are one of the most read here and why i read everything you post.

I posted on another thread a couple of posts, one about politics and the US elections and one theorizing on the current FED solutions or actions in response to the mortgage mess and it's implications. I got only one response on the later and about 10 on the former. More importantly the 10 spawned another 8-10 and counting. Point being readers have passionate opinions about politics and parties, reasons to hate one or the other.
The post that only got 1 response was on topic. The political post was off topic.

BTW. this is interesting and if true, would justify your worry.
