Good luck TJ. Owning illiquid, debt trapped assets in a credit crunch is not my idea of a good time.

"barely recovered to 1997 nominal price level" This serves as evidence of the effects of a "flight for quality". 11 years to recover from the attack.

People have to understand the accummulation of reserves today under this perspective: Countries need to be prepared for the looting that have been engendered in a once-a decade regular basis by the capital hoggers.

No one wants anymore to get into that position.
