actually, this is technically an allision b/c the ship seems to have struck a stationary object.

I have on more than one occasion struck a stationary object... and never once, before now, did I know that was an allision... opens all kinds of fun possibilities... one might become involved... in a collision over collusion over an allusion to an allision...

In fact... seems likely the lawyers are working on establishing grounds for something like that right now...

From your link, and I added a link to them:

"A top-tier crew like the Dutch firm SMIT Salvage now in Egypt will usually work on a so-called Lloyd’s Open Form basis and be paid a success fee based on the value of the ship and cargo. This fee will be in the tens of millions of dollars for the Ever Given, Grieveson said."


From that link: "Part of Royal Boskalis Westminster"... which is here or as KKWFF, RBWNY, etc. Has lots of listings... It's up about one Euro... but for no obvious reason, given the company has revenues of $2.52 billion... it won't even register as a blip...

just heard a data point, that

had one bought gold in 1980/1981, in Japanese Yen terms, one would be breaking even right now. Deflation is horrible for gold.

Inflation is better than deflation.
