    Considering the fuss you made in another thread about defamation I would expect better from you.

    I have no stock market investments of recent years - the only investment I consider worthwhile is my own company where I have large degree of control over my destiny.

    Unlike that guy who clearly wants more buyers to get into his casino I don't have any conflicts of interest at all.

    It was meant to be tough talking, but helpful, advice (not to invest in the stock market unless you understand the fundamentals), but OK, point taken, bit rude. I'll stick to reading your posts in awed silence in future.

    The length and depth of the impending recession depends on the amount of debt that needs to be flushed out, compared with the historical "norm".

    And we've got a lot. There can be no quick fix, whatever this bloke or Gordon Brown tells us.

    I quite like Mobius, he agrees with my opinions.
