    Currency question

    If I understand you correctly then, I can expect EUR to remain low to USD for some time?

    Currency question

    Quick question... I bought a property in Spain a couple of years ago, 25% down on a 27 year mortgage. I'm thinking of selling some stocks in the US to cover an additional 20% of the property since my assets are in USD while the loan is in EUR. The idea is to take advantage of the near parity...

    Why This Computer Scientist Says All Cryptocurrency Should “Die in a Fire”

    Rereading my post, I realize that I'm not even convinced of what I wrote. A country's currency collapse is a consequence of 2 reasons, government mismanagement and/or foreign interference. As the saying goes, these are not flaws but features of the system. Excessive plunder should have...

    Why This Computer Scientist Says All Cryptocurrency Should “Die in a Fire”

    Wow guys... Attacking the interviewee is all you can come up with? I took time to read the article in which he makes a number of accusations that can either be debunked or they are validated. As the crypto groupies here, I expected greater efforts on your parts to counter argue each of his...

    TSLA split non event

    A non event would mean the stock isn't affect by the split and I know of no companies whose stock isn't affected by a split. It's always an event.

    China decoupling from wall street

    I don't think that's true. Remember, China only emerged from isolation starting in 1978 and foreigners settling in China in the 80s were still adventurers. I have friends who moved to Shanghai at the end of the 80s when nearly the only cars were taxis and who couldn't keep track how quickly...

    China decoupling from wall street

    Thoughts about the video. I don't like the comparison with the US real estate dev market. Some aspects of Chinese developers strats are similar to Europe or Southeast Asian countries, making the US real estate market more unique than China's. For example, mortgages in Japan are multi...

    China decoupling from wall street

    That Reuters article shows how much political manipulation affects businesses in China, particularly foreign businesses. The fabrication may not come from the higher spheres of government, but there are so many layers of regional and local regulators that can effectively shut businesses that...

    China decoupling from wall street

    We think ourselves rugged capitalists, but we can't live without our government protections, the 100% guarantee, full refunds, recourse lawsuits and all. And I say this in defense of this revolution that I time beginning in the late 1970s, and which ushered a consumerist explosion that didn't...

    China decoupling from wall street

    When I found that out last year and knowing how quickly China's government decides and implements rules, I sold all of my BABA and swore off Chinese stocks on US markets. Good thing because BABA sunk a few months later.

    New beginnings

    Tarzan didn't live in Kenya, he lived in the jungle. You're saying farmers are primitive, not me. But you're definitely not in Kenya and a farmer with 20 people in your village, you're most probably somewhere in the US.

    Your command of English and idioms you use are definitely not in line with your Kenya farmer story. Wouldn't touch this with a 10 ft pole...

    China decoupling from wall street

    Are you sure? If that's the case, I agree with you, the same rules should apply to all. But you'd have to prove it to me.

    China decoupling from wall street

    This is exactly how things should work. If you don't want to abide by a country's rules you are free to leave. How the US allowed these companies to list without enforcing the rules is another story...
