Nice payday for Einhorn. :)

The Renminbi was pegged to the devaluing US Dollar...and also the currencies of major US trading partners that depend on the US consumer such as exporting oil nations. Pegging and devaluing are two different things. :eek: :eek:

With all due respect....where have you guys been? We have been devaluing the US Dollar for years now. :eek: :eek: :confused: :confused:

Sure, Chrysler does not deserve to be in business. But what on earth gives union workers the right to retain nearly 55% of the company after restructuring when dealers and debt holders are left eating dust? If there is one thing we all learned under the current administration is that the...
