Everyone seems to have gone mad. Massive massive debts, overbought markets, trade wars, central banks buying up stokes, mad."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

I contracted in the city for twenty-five years (to five years ago), the last twenty years have been nothing but bubble and bailout cycles.
We really are in a bloody mess.Comment

2008 was a debt fuelled crisis triggered by the collapse of financial institutions. Some of which are a corpse being kept alive (RBS I'm thinking of you).
10 years later the debt is still there and larger, fuelled by money printing. What will be the trigger this time? Don't think it'll be political. It'll add to it for sure. In the end it'll be something simple."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

A reverse protection racket.
Meanwhile Mercedes launched their all electric car this week. A car they developed with their own cash. There's no way Tesla can survive in the face of that. Tesla should stick with their space program, that is at least profitable.
