Thanks for your prompt
reply, I will go back to my JFK conspiracy theories once again :-)
.
Brenda , Re touting on the
net, I have noted that the email address I use for this site draws in many
emails from financial service providers, I have been offered the "holy grail" of
financial investment in many guises over the last year or two, even from those
investment funds and brokers touting stocks that have now halved in value.

Have a look at the buildup
to the iraq war and it could only but confirm a JFK conspiracy theory, same
scenario with the exception that they have a war munger for president and didnt
have to kill him, there was a bbc doco on TV here on Sunday night that showed
the buildup from the 9/11 tragedy which showed how they attempted to join the
dots with whatever tenuous evidence they were able to cobble together and by
threatening everyone they could. Hardly surprising they are the most distrusted,
least respected & most likely country to create war in the world according
to a worldwide BBC poll published 2 weeks ago.
Interesting to note
particularly that South Korea distrusts the US the most & considers them
likely to cause war with the North.
Hey all said and done it
kick started there economy again, big deficit but who cares it kept everyones
mind off the economy.
While I started off topic
re JFK, considerably more relevant however , I believe any
investment strategy must have consideration of the macro political and
economic conditions prevailing, as simple as keeping an eye on the bell weather
indexes in the US, DOW, NASDAQ, S&P etc or as complex as tracking inter
market relationships between OIL, US dollars etc (getting out of my depth now)
to just simply following trends (had to get the TA slant in :-) ) in
developing economies such as china similar to the rise of the smaller asian
tiger economies over the 80's & early 90's.
I have a pet theory (along
with my JFK one) that Australia will grow economically out of all ordinary
proportions because of its relationship with the US that it has forged through
the War on terrorism and its percieved kindred relationship through the Bali
bombing and "we support" you in Afghanistan and Iraq. When I lived in the UK in
the early 80's it amazed me the amount of older people who often said to me that
NZ fed britain through the war, look at the spin off we had through the 50,s
,60's & 70's from that relationship prior to Britain joining the forerunner
to the EU.
NZ on the other hand
has forged a solid friendship with every banana republic who wants to suck the
life out of us that we can, (oops warning, the previous was not a
politically correct statement in the current climate).

Hi
Morgy
I can assure
you there is no censorship on the Forum. If there was we probably would have
stopped the Access post as they are a good supporter of ShareChat. Also, we
would have stepped in a couple of months ago when there were some comments of
a personal nature regarding some posts. In that case we discussed it with the
person who was being criticised and he was happy to let things
continue.
With regards
to your Sunday post – it appeared from my perspective that it had gone live
but for some reason it hadn’t. I will check that out for you. Please accept my
apologies and be assured we don’t censor
posts.

Censorship
Brenda
I sent in a
post in response to a question from a forum member on Sunday regarding Qantas,
in which I charted the qantas shareprice demise over the preceding 12 months
or so and made a comment on brokerages and fund managers touting stocks which
were in obvious decline, I noted despite sending it again and checking the
destination address that it still hasnt appeared on sharechat, this seems odd,
one hopes that there is no censorship on the site, your email makes me wonder.
I also sent a email to the forum administrator through the website enquiry
email system and have had no response.
Mind you
who really killed JFK ?.
I am a
conspiracy theorist from way back. Perhaps sharechat moderator may wish to
comment and correct any apprehensions ?.
Regards
Morgy
