The Coming Crash (no later than 1H2012)?

[yeokiwi]

Haha.. Andy Xie again. Take his article with a pinch of salt..

Eg... look at the following article..
http://www.businessinsider.com/andy-xie-...11-2010-12
In 2011, it was neither US nor china in deep Sh**. It was Europe.

Nothing symbolizes Japan's decline like its electronics industry. It was the envy of the world and had all the ingredients to take the industry into the mobile internet era. Instead, it embraced insulation and made products just for the Japanese market. Now it is almost irrelevant to the outside world.

Wow... Japan's electronics is irrelevant!!
Has he seen a PCB before?
Even better, does he know how many electronics components are built and designed by Japs in his house??

I alway have the impression that the impact from thailand flood has greater supply chain impact to the world than japan tsunami.

Rotational play yes. Small property developers in play atm......but stock market seems lethargy (I was reading an article which said funds continue to flow out of US stock market in the past few weeks) ....seems like a correction in due....plus in Apr/May we have the French Presidential Election plus Greece General Elections....

Sarkozy might lose...although the terrorist attack helped him a bit.....As for Greece, those who stand for bailout gonna lose and those against gonna win big(unless Greeks behave like Singaporeans.....complain complain but in the end still vote PAP ^^) so what will happen? who knows....so just don't get caught wrong footed.

Well debt is debt, doesn't matter who runs greece they will still have to repay the debt. Same you buy over a business that is hock the ears in debt you still have to repay it you can do it same way as what's happening in greece by selling off assets laying off people ...

There's no easy way out, easiest way is to default and go back to their own currency and save their own skins but it's not without pain or repurcussions they will basically shove the german,french and european bond buyers who are probably institutional buyers or government buyers with any reasonable financial muscle. Later when they try to sell their bonds denominated in drachmas it could very well be the same group of people they need to approach whom they screwed over earlier and what do you think will happen

It's no easy way out it's bad time to be a european.

Food for thought................

a bit of sidetrack.....was having fun monitoring to see how accurate astrology is on the stock market......

3月4日——金星冲土星 影 响力前后三天。金融市场方面也会受到影响力波及，产生回落，短线投资者可 以在前半周逢高出货。

3月5日——金星进入金牛座 从社会角度而言，金星回归金牛座让此前一度低迷的金融市场重获新机，呈现震荡上扬走势。

3月14日——金星木星合相及金木火冥大三角：影响力前后四天 从社会角度而言，这是实实在在的桃花季节，让人们对爱情的渴望更为强烈。金融方面则会呈单边上涨之态，人们的投资欲望也极为强烈。


3月24日——太阳天王星合相 影 响力前后四天 从社会角度而言，在娱乐、投资领域都可能发生出人意表的事情，股票金融市场在此期间也会呈震荡走势，可能伴有短线下调。另外，也有爆发大规模自然灾害或是与孩子相关的突发事件。

3月29日——太阳与冥王星相刑 影 响力前后三天 另外与娱乐、投资、幼儿相关领域也可能会有恶性事件发生。

in short we should see bull till last 10 days of march then correction.....end march or early apr, we might have some bad news.....

just for fun...believe it or not....^^let's see if this astrologer is good....
