2000, not likely, that's 250% from here, pretty abrupt ... more something like 1200 imho, 1500 maybe, that's plenty to alert markets to the new level of fiat, and not enough to be scarey ... they'll still want to keep control

It was once reasonable to suspect manipulation of gold, but no longer imho, now you pretty much have to assume it, and make correct guesses as to its degree and timing ... this fellow Bolser is right about official control imho, but wrong [?] about direction in the near future - Message 25236654

Devaluations - i got moderate benefit from the '94 devaluation of the peso, could have had much more, passed up the chance to buy the sweetest little hotel for about the price of a low-end house here in BC ... small colonial era town in a nice area, solid building partly built of stone, great staff who could have run it forever [and likely still are] ... but, just decided i wasn't ready for the hotel business, plus there was a woman elsewhere, so just moved on

Options exp jan10 - no problem imho, we'll see movement before then
