I heard that the USA has suddenly stepped in and bought yen. Well, well, well. Was anyone really surprised? Those holding money are being diluted in a big, big way but you don't know it yet. If you travel near the speed of light, you get time dilation and mass increase and stuff like that. Money works like that too - you can speed it up, slow it down, inflate it and deflate it and you don't even need an expensive particle accelerator - just a USA Federal Reserve cheque book. And I can tell you that the holder of the cheque book won't be writing out cheques to put money in YOUR pocket. All good fun. I heard there are still some suckers holding cash! Hahaha!!! Stick with the stockmarkets - but make sure you are in the right one at the right time and the right stock within the right market. Mqurice PS: My guess is Gregg has left to have a breather, but also to buy all the Qualcomm shares. You don't indentify the biggest dichotomy between internal corporate reality and external perception without loading up with big heaps of shares. They'll be switching their portfolio to 30% Qualcomm while they have the chance. Or 50% if they are more confident. Why give the identified added-value arbitrage opportunity to others?
