It's been one choppy ass market last few days. Hang on tight.

Of course you know what all this means don't you?
If it falls a couple of thousand more, it will be back to Clinton's best days. Shiver! |
Hoo yeah! And then if it falls another eight thousand points after that it'll be down to Reagan's best day ever! |

I'm not sure what to make out of that, particularly since (IIRC) they also state that the UK pound is over valued. If any currency is stable I would think it was the pound.

I think that's a good call.
If any currency were stable, the pound would be stable.
Therefore, logically, since the pound is not stable, not any currency is stable.
Let's face it. All modern fiat currencies are just numbers on paper theoretically representing the wealth of the issuer. But it IS just a number. Holding currency doesn't mean that you can buy anything with it. |
