I still see a major dollar squeeze like during lehman's shock and awe period - euroland bond market is in bad shape regardless of ECB trying stick save the situation... http://www.nytimes.com/2...l?pagewanted=2&_r=1 @Nabwire - look up what Vanguard did with their loan to Rabobank... Thanks for this infographic, just goes to show that GS rules the world in totality!!! Just curious Hisah, since you hate GS so much, if you were offered a job there at an annual salary of $1,000,000 would you decline coz of social mores?? GS rules the world and I would give away my left kidney to be a part of the team Lets not get carried away, this crisis is a European one, I dont see any risk to US banks. The very fact that Vanguard pulled out shows that its Europe on fire this time, not the US, though I'm still bullish on Societe Generale.

I posted the entire article here - http://www.wazua.co.ke/f...amp;m=239583#post239583 And no, even for a trillion dollars I wouldn't work for these banksters. I told you I was kicked out of school for going against the norm. My dislike for these banks is at an all time high if not parabolic yet! I don't see them getting far in the end and I'm sure in a few years time the world, not just a few people will shut them down. Just like the fed was shutdown by Jefferson and A. Jackson some hundred years back. I can see the snake has eaten its tail, it will be interesting... $15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

Rank: Chief Joined: 8/4/2010 Posts: 8,977		Interesting to see that ABG (African Barrick Gold) will be listing in DSE. YTD it is down 15.08%. I wonder how many Tz guys will be able to afford the offer at the current price of £4.95/share approx 14K TZS or KES 770. http://www.africanbarric...estors/dse-listing.aspx - The listing is on Dec 7 2011. From the chart below, there is scope of the price testing £3.93 printed on June 16 2011. Those buying note this - Gold production is forecasted to peak in 2016, with production rising to 1.55 million ounces by 2012. Also note this is a TZ only affair Otherwise, you need to buy them at LSE (London Stock Xchange). http://uk.finance.yahoo....0;logscale=off;source The price for USD used on the memorandum assumes USDTZS = 1530. Currently the the cross is trading at 1711. A diff of 13%. So it is cheaper to buy in USD. Memorandum - http://www.africanbarric...formation-Memorandum.pdf $15/barrel oil...

This reminds me of the crack on the rand. A lemon squeeze is on the cards. The final lap will be in euroland land where it is no longer a sovereign issue but also a banking squeeze most likely in Q1 2012. http://www.livemint.com/...ime-low-m.html?atype=tp $15/barrel oil...

Rank: Chief Joined: 8/4/2010 Posts: 8,977		KE labour wars. Private sector KQ has been leading. Now I can see public sector with doctors demanding more and justified indeed. How much do Mpigs earn and is it justified?! 2011 is very restive globally & 2012 will see things intensifying as the same issues against the system spread out... http://www.nation.co.ke/...0/-/as8j3q/-/index.html $15/barrel oil...
