the hans invaded the manchus? wish you would get your facts straight, but given your agenda, realize you cannot.
dialects are a result of wars? what planet do you live on?
tibet? tibet is an integral part of china, much more so than california is of usa. tibet issue was, i believe, settled on this thread, as liberation of a feudal great gaming area from which the same sort of state-sponsored murdering and raping encroached on china from elsewhere was trying to do same and in truth are still trying to do so today, but the tide is held back in tora bora.
so, your focus on one word Message 26753830 is i fear played out, getting tiresome, and your inanity has been on full display enough.
now we can get back to the other aspect of your constitution, lack of acumen ... starting from the beginning, again, clip n paste
Hello hamoon, here be a message in a bottle Message 14861804 from me to you, circa 2000-11-24 , still relevant today, and still the reason you should atone for your sins.
Some important points were made in my presentation, and had I known that your were so challenged, I would have magnanimously and altruistically help you more.
(i) Message 14861804
<<Just for example, if we were to use NASDAQ index in 1989 at 500 (plus or minus a few points) as starting point, and apply a long term rate of return of say, 15%, then a nasty correction can take the NASDAQ to 2300.>>
… on the day I posted to you, nasdaq was at 2,900. guess what, nasdaq is still at the sorry 2300 predicted level, after all these sorry years and all the fiat money inflation, rewarding you not at all. Recommendation: suggest you ruminate on the obvious and reflect on the simple, to understand why.
<<If we use 10% as the long term return rate, then the correction of NASDAQ can take us to 1400. We know by experience of others that the markets always reach for extremes, in due time.>>
… and in September 2002, the nasdaq wonderfully breached the simply predicted level of 1400, and bottomed at 1,172. Understanding leads to wisdom, and learning begets understanding.
(ii) Message 14861804
<<Should any of the above two cases materialize, all financial institutions the world over will suffer, the faith in all currencies will drop, regardless of national pedigree, more so for previously highly valued ones. Problem is that the currencies can not all depreciate against each other, but must depreciate against a standard. The recent decision by the oil producing nations to accept the Euro as payment for some oil is a start of a trend. The standard is passed around every so many years, from gold to pound to gold to Yen to Dollar, and maybe onward again to Oil or some other standard. The Dollar's reign has been, so far, quite short in the context of previous trading currencies.>>
… question for you: did you partake in the predicted energy ramp, engage with the commodity surge, or take advantage of the currency grind? Or did your incorrect understanding of irrelevant facts blind you to the obvious?
<<When offshore folks hold US Dollars, we are explicitly saying (a) the opportunities in the US for gain are better and more plentiful, (b) the US government is more trustworthy than the alternative, (c) inflation is under control in the US. These statements cannot always be true and has not always been true. When sentiments change, the money will leave the US as it had left Thailand. There is no ordained magic to the dollar (just a piece of paper accepted as money in many places) just as there is no ordained magic to Dell (just a box) or any other objects thought of as ordained at one time or another (i.e. Cisco is just another box).>>
… do you now understand that the dollar is not worthy, the usa economy is inflexible, and the spin you listened to and in turn promoted are not of merit?
<<Right now, the two presidential contenders do not inspire confidence overseas, especially as they do not even inspire confidence at home.>>
… do you now see that bush the younger was even less than a waste of time, even as he was elected by and for the people, however unwisely, as they now have put obama in the chief decider’s seat?
<<The recent moves by US Congress to politicize the US capital market regulations as an arm of foreign policy is also not wise for maintaining the Dollar value. These esoteric issues most likely will escape the notice of the everymen in Florida, but not the typical offshore investor.>>
… do appreciate those astute take of the situation, and realize that the underpinnings of usa capitalism, its market, has been under attack and is now being dismantled, and driven to freedom hong kong in a good part
(iii) Message 14861804
<<On gold, I am not a gold bug, and I do not believe in a return to the gold standard. Gold is not money. However, gold is a store of value. I do not know the value of gold, but I do know by observation that the selling of hoards of gold had saved many families in Asia during the past few years. I think platinum is a better store of value. An oil field may be better still.>>
… did you do anything about anything to do with precious, cheap and noble gold? Did you embrace strategic platinum? If not why not?
