Black Monday

volpunter · Jul 1, 2015

Germany does very well, you must hate to see that. Jealousy and hurt pride.

God save our gracious Queen!
Long live our noble Queen!
God save The Queen!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us:
God save The Queen!
O Lord our God arise,
Scatter her enemies,
And make them fall:
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish[26] tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix:
God save us all.
Thy choicest gifts in store,
On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign:
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause,
To sing with heart and voice,
God save The Queen!

Fuck the queen!!! Its all economics, stupid.

Weird way to spend a holiday....:S You have a fixation on the weather and like many eu fanatics an outright fear of "isolation" as though scared of independence, needing to be in the special group to project the PoWer!!!...its a german thing...its almost as if you need me to hate europe and germany :lol: im afriad I do not, I will leave the savage judgments to you.

How is the bickering going? Several years of it with much more to come as your leaders are tied up dealing with ther greek situation day after day, endless debate over the minor details, the eu and euro could have been a worthy project had the germans respected and not abused it for personal gain but hey as history shows in the end everything is balanced out.

Germany does do well and we would much prefer to see her doing so than invading the world around her, though to be jelous of her would be akin to being jelous of the "natural" physique of a steriod user, the majority of its success comes from manipulation and jelousy achieves nothing. Perhaps one day germany will be more comfortable with it self and wont feel the need to prove to the world that the sun shines out of its rectum, whilst feeling scared to stand up to the plate due to sour memorys...it is however interested to note how the country treats the vunerable within its reach.

oh dear, even Mama Thatcher held Germany in higher regards.

Grexit edition. History never repeats.

Not to be confused with the great crash of March 2nd, 2014 :

I'm long and I'm pissed. I know a crash is coming but I was hoping June or later.

Maybe you aren't cut out for forecasting markets. You remind me of Grand_Super_Cycle, who forecast a crash unlike what we've ever seen in 2012. Turned out 2012 was a nice year to be long US equities. Poor guy was holding leveraged shorts all year waiting for the money to roll in.

Maybe that's why a lot of the trend following shops never write home with spectacular gains but also do not go belly up either.

EU != federal republic of the U.S. There may be similarities in ways but you're not going to have monetary union without political union.

volpunter · Jul 2, 2015

There already is a monetary union which existed for years without an exclusive political union. It worked and works as long as guidelines and rules are more or less adhered to. Greece was and is not willing to play by the rules. There is a huge difference between bending the rule and once the rubber band contracts to get back in line and on the other side cheating oneself through each and every loophole there is. One is called solidarity and being able to make compromises the other is called a parasite. Ireland, Spain, and Portugal have all proven that they can put in the work and endure hardship when it comes to fixing their previous exceeding limits and overspending. France and Germany have also previously violated certain bandwidths but they worked hard to make such violations temporary. Such temporary violations were allowed by design (please carefully study the EU charter and related laws). By the way, I never said the EU is like the US, I said both systems exhibit a lot of parallels and comparables that make it at least worthwhile to compare. The US does not have a political union by the way, not any more political than the EU executive and legislative branches anyway. The Federal government in the US reaches very well defined limits when it comes to touching on State authority and domain.
