Thank you, Peter!

 

That lucid account warrants a print!

 

I take it to mean that there could be better pickings for the TA / trading people than for the long term investor!!

 

The stockpicker will also have to be very careful!

 

Solid and well chosen types of infrastructure companies will reign! These will be in control of price setting- or at least will be able to greatly influence it! 

 

It is just as well that interest rates are still trending down, internationally. If these are low enough, then, at some stage cash will go back into the equity markets.

 

To some extent, this is happening now but will it be a false start? Will there be deeper lows to come?

 

If the US will be running big deficits, what then?

One would hope that at that time, the economy will be more robust!

 

It is just as well that there is a massive amount of cash becoming available every day from super contributions in the US and other countries! 

 

What do other contributors think?
