Are you nutz? ;) Everywhere I go on these threads and on tv people are beside themselves with optimism. Not just on these boards. Australian market up 10%(in $US) today. There is no "economic crisis", some big players miscalculated and want to put their hands in someone else's pocket. Need an excuse though, so, Ta Da, "economic crisis". business.smh.com.au

hello wanderer, i am nutz, but you knew that, so not fair :0) << Stocks are too cheap to resist and the crisis is behind us!>> I agree, especially if one's time horizon is 10 years or more ;0) <<We will be saved by the world CB's.>> - i am counting on it - i am not fighting the fed and all central banks, had always been aligned with the fiat money inflation force I am thinking: - we might no longer in newtonian space, with the everyday familiar - we could have entered into a black hole, where light does not escape - there will be lots of hammering, but we cannot know where, who, what and how of the force that guides the hammer or even it is at all guided - suppose rmb : usd devalues / reverts back to 8.3:1, or over shoots to 12:1, or if the yen hammers 85:1 - what would happen? - the usa congress had always bothered china to 'free-float' its currency; should china do so at this juncture, when massive inward smuggling of silver is taking place, my wager would be with sudden and dramatic fall of rmb, to 12:1 - beijing should check with washington on whether free float is still wished for :0) - interesting times. Trust your instinct, gold, gas, travel, and fun, plus watch & brief Cheers, j
