Grand. Thanks. In my later years I worked for IBM in one of their call centres, helping look after their Server contracts in Australia and NZ. Nightshift work. The call centre had been outsourced to India, but the Aussies and New Zealanders didn't get on with the Indians, so it came back to the UK -g- If was a software problem, as opposed to hardware, I usually called someone in India, or someone of Indian extraction. I stress "usually" as there is always a distribution in everything. These people effectively own the software technical stuff world, far as I can tell. Various guesses have been made why that is so, education by rote, for example. What is Rote Learning - Advantages & Disadvantages (careers360.com) Whatever, CSPR looks to me as having a good team in place, and good forward vision. IBM were once ten times bigger than all their rivals put together. Only DEC was thought to have a chance of surviving. Lots of history there. Nathan Rothchild knew a thing or two about money. Not sure if he said this or not, but there is a large amount of truth in it. I doubt he said it actually, probably had more business sense then to make such an uttering. So, I listen and read the utterings from the geeks on Bitcoin and elsewhere, I really do think the squabbling is unnecessary and overdone, and get amused at the thought they think they are going to control everything. There will always be thousands of ways to put a little bias in the system, development happens, so we may as well own up to the fact. I am happy with my little pile of CSPR, and if the chart fails to move to the upper right, may well add more in assistance. Will not be surprised to see some shocks to the system. I found the gossip at the end here (link below) also interesting. Nothing written in stone of course, but the rumours do have indications. youtu.be The potential USA rail strike could cause asset valuations to change imho.
