What happened to all of the doom and gloom economic threads?

The Miracle of the Centrally-Planned Economy!

Over the past 30 years, China has been an economic success story without parallel in modern history. By abandoning the disastrous policies of Mao Zedong's era and embracing the market, it attained growth averaging a stunning 10 percent a year, lifting hundreds of millions of Chinese out of poverty. It became the world's biggest exporter.

But all is not well. Thanks to the malfunctioning economies of the United States and Europe, demand for China's exports is shriveling. Under pressure from Washington, it has had to let its currency decline, which puts a drag on its sales abroad.

Inflation is up and could soon approach double digits. Growth is down—and anything the government does to combat rising prices may depress it further.

Meanwhile, the real estate market, says Tsinghua University business professor Patrick Chovanec, "is in the process of crashing." That process, as you may recall from the U.S. experience, can wreak havoc on banks. In the first quarter, GDP rose at the slowest rate since 2009.

The economy most admired by the Left!

The Olympic Opening!
The empty cities and malls!

High Speed rail that must go slow; crazy train!
 
I'm still head and shoulders about the tribe of Churchill, Warren, and Obama!



You might want to scour your own 'bushes' for liars instead of running around with falsehoods.
 
Like inflation, the further away you are from the IPO, the worse you get fucked, the closer, the more you benefitted...

"About" the tribe?

Your English skills seem to have degenerated to the point where they now equal your "legendary" mathmatical (sic) skillz.

Speaking of which, I seriously doubt that Churchil, Warren and/or Obama would support your claim that one dollar, one quarter and one nickel totals ninety one cents.
 
Wonder how much FB stock Merc got sucked into. Lost 11% today.


I didn't buy Facebook. Despite the fact that there are bargains out there right now I'm not buying much at all because we're about to buy a house. And my only income at the moment is my paltry USAF reserve pay.

How much did you get sucked into?
 
Merc has the ability to prove he made money on FB stock today.


I don't even know anyone who's buying FB. Do you? Maybe you are? You and Vette are the only ones talking about people buying it.

Here's my tip of the day: Buy Vale and go long. Their stock is oversold and their volatility is scaring people off. And I think one of their ships sunk. But it's a massive company with long-term contracts all over the world. Also it pays a fat dividend so you'll be rewarded for just holding onto it for a while.

Here's my tip of the day: Buy J.P Morgan Chase don't worry they are doing the very same thing that Enron done just remember there to big to fail. Also no need to worry why the FBI are SEC looking in to there activities in the interest rate market.
Just know you well have some stock in a bank that there leader going to be in front of congress making them look like fools.
 
Obamanomics 101:

Yesterday President Obama gave a press conference at the NATO Summit in his hometown of Chicago and made it a point to let taxpayers know they were paying for his hotel room, (and the rooms of hundreds of secret service agents too) instead of staying at home in Chicago because it, "stimulates the economy." His house was only 15 minutes away....

"The only other thing I'll say about this is, thank you to everybody who endured the traffic situation. Obviously, Chicago residents who had difficulties getting home or getting to work or what have you, you know, that's -- what can I tell you? That's part of the price of being a world city," President Obama said at a news conference at the NATO summit in Chicago.

"But this was a great showcase. And if it makes those folks feel any better, despite being 15 minutes away from my house, nobody would let me go home. I was thinking I would be able to sleep in my own bed tonight. They said I would cause even worse traffic so I ended up staying at a hotel, which contributes to the Chicago economy," Obama said on Monday afternoon.
