The Boom Busts and recoveries thread is fizzling out. Humor alone doesn't keep the discussion going. I write a lot about ethanol in Dog's thread. Some people once in a while come after me but I have been fair to them and they had been fair to me. Imagine if they had kicked me off on ethanol grounds: Once PBR discovered Tupi and is appraising the new one Carioca, they would not get the stuff that I read in the local press and put there about rigs and ways to solve the challenges. They would have lost. All the enthusiasm to get the people to go to Booms Busts thread is going down. there is a lot of lurker traffic that passes by here and doesn't pass there. The guy who got killed there was exhaustively explained to him: He was offered protection by the local police. refused. Try to react to a robbery in a strange land is suicide and the culprits got caught and are serving 30 year (the maximum sentence) But he is always exhumation the corpse of the guy here. Imagine if someone mentions any police mistake and I was wheeling in the case of Menezes the guy who got shot in the London subway.

Beyond decoupling:we are moving towards an emerging markets-led world. HSBC Investments: Case for emerging markets is "compelling" Tue 20th May 2008 HSBC Investments has suggested we are moving towards an emerging markets-led world. It notes that emerging countries now represent 30 per cent of the world economy - ten per cent increase on a decade ago - and have now overtaken both the United States and Europe as the largest economic zone in the world. In addition, in the last three years they have contributed over 50 per cent of global nominal growth in US dollar terms. With the earnings growth in emerging markets forecast at 15 per cent for 2008, twice the rate for developed markets, the bank is suggesting that now could be the time to invest. Christian Deseglise, global head of emerging markets business at HSBC Investments, commented: "The case for emerging markets is more compelling than ever, especially at a time when value has been restored in many of the countries that were becoming expensive in the fall of 2007." In April HSBC launched emerging markets funds with capital protection and tax advantages.
