True enough Cloud. I never said anything about saving banks at all costs, I could care less about them. Losing access to working capital is my...
When it comes to PM, the only "name brands" you hsould worry about will be what will be acceptable to your buyer. You want something everyone...
Sorry, but comparing Iceland to the US is like comparing a smart car to an 18 wheeler. What Iceland does does not matter to the world economy. The...
Not much of a downside with the ruble? A country quickly backsliding into a Moscow dictated, corrupt oligarchy with rules and business run for the...
But there are dire consequences. Destroying working capital for industries, (since the banks will have all reserves destroyed by a default and...
They would both decline against what? Currencies only "decline" in relation to each other. If you are postulating a decline, then against what...
