An inherent tendency in capitalism (and I don't mean mercantilism or other forms of exchange, but specifically capitalism with its Anglo-Saxon legal basis in intangible wealth formation) is the relentless drive to globalised deregulation. I would ...

Will Financial Markets Always Exist?

I never predict and barely take notice of the news...have my patterns and run with them. Less distracting.

Anyone ever trade pure chop?
