As goes the QE so goes the markets.

Poor china less and less low cost dollars, so they print more and more Yuan.

Has anyone noticed Mr Soros has been quiet re the unbalancing of the Turkish Lira.

May be I haven't been paying attention.

Then there's the POTUS and the TPP.

I was looking at the map and thought, if I wanted to ensure certain choke points or ports of call were on friendly terms with our consumer base in a quid pro quo, it makes sense in one sense. Not that we would ever deny a Asian power access to the right of way of the high seas.

This brings me to look at Myanmar. Out of the prison of military dictatorship just in time to possibly become the next Asian miracle? Did the pipeline on its coast into south China provide an incentive to open up as the Pakistan pipeline might not be Taliban proof?

The end of the 1972 bear market. Take a Google if you like gold history.

The Munich massacre was a 1972 event just for perspective.

Grammar, not semantics.

"so much" is a modifier of "hated" not of "in the south".

I'm from NJ and have lived in Virginia for twenty years.

All I can say is from my experience, you have judged many good people harshly.

The case is true that some people only see the man's skin color.

It really has nothing to do with geography.

Those slave owning white men of the 18th century in the south included gun owners and bible owners George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

History has many strange bedfellows.

And they have slept just about everywhere.
