Yuki,
Surprised to read of you leaning towards regulations when your own economy
is one of the most stagnant large economies and over regulated in the world.
Your talking about the problems of SIV's, CDO's etc seems to be the pot
calling the kettle black as your banking system still carries the burden of
debt taken on the books from over 20 years ago. None of us are fans of what
is happening in the US as even though perhaps its not the primary driver of
world economic activity anymore it is still one of the largest consumers.
I am not trying to make a case of regulation is bad, however, over
regulation is can be just as harmful as inadequate or inept.
Not sure how the tangent of religious views entered the thread but that
begins to encroach on subject matter like politics that is best kept off of
the list.
Lets stick to the topic of Amibroker and the ways we can profit from the
situations the markets offer.
Thanks,
DM
