Ahhh, yes. Addi---just the person I wanted to talk to.

Let's see here...I believe you said in this post right here,
Message 3013161

(and I quote)

"And besides I do not recall him stating to short Hong Kong until after the HangSang market had dropped to under the 11000 level (where it currently is and most likely will be the bottom)!"

Once again your were fibbing or just plain wrong but who cares. Let's say for arguments sake he didn't short Hong Kong until 11,000. (For the record he was short at much higher prices than that. He said he was adding to his shorts then). In fact J. Rogers said he was still short Hong Kong just this last friday.

Well, well, well. Let's see here. The Hang Seng is down how much right now? Hmmm...let me go check. Yikes! 611 points or more than 6% and it's still falling, at the lows for the day. It sits at about 9500. To recap, that's 1500 points or 13.6% if you use your 11,000 figure for his short entry.

Of course you said Hong Kong was "most likely bottomed" at 11,000.

OTOH I was listening to Jimmy and telling you no, no, no. Hong Kong was shakier than ever.
