      Where does the money flow if Trump wins in Nov?
      I would think a Trump victory would signal uncertainty due to his position on trade and renegotiating trade deals. I can't image the wealth that's moving today flowing into China or Russia. Brittan will still be unstable along with the EU, especially with a general election in France coming up, and other counties discussing their own referendum. Can' see it flowing to S.A. or Africa. What's left, Oz, N.Z. Canada, maybe India, the M.E.?

      Or will the money still flow to the USD, even with DJT as Pres?

        You can finance anything at a negative bond yield,whats the german at?-.25-50 can't remember,funny how you have sovereigns denominated in broad based currency.

        The money ends up coming home,south africa is gone,nz and austraila should be ok the way they are playing their cards i think.south america is toast argentina may come out alive but i don't really know,tawain i would get the **** out of there like yesterday,them chinese don't cross borders but formosa has always been theirs and they will probably hand an ass kicking to the japs,what them chinks just did at the asia conference was biblical,the swiss are the most militarized on the planet they will be ok,hawii and alaska may fall,take a good look at singapore i think its a no go zone

              OK fair enough, just didn't want folks here to think immigration was the #1 or that what Britain is doing is anything like the Donald Trump movement.

              We joined the "Common Market" in the 1970s to be part of a larger trading block I have no problem with that. When it morphed into the "EU Superstate" with common currency, central control, non-elected officials in control, European Courts able to overturn individual countries legal decision it became too much in my opinion.

              A parallel here would be signing the NAFTA agreement and then later trying to get the US, Canada and Mexico to tie their Governments, currency and laws together in a Superstate governed by an entity that acts like CFIA.

              And I'm pretty sure the Germans won't be planning on leaving any time soon - they want to be controlling the continent just as they have tried to do unsuccessfully in two world wars. Maybe now their buddies France will have to chip in and pay their share which they've avoided doing up to now.

                Can the U.K. afford to keep the farm support programs that the EU had in place?

                  The figures I heard they could pay the farmers what they were getting before and it would be roughly half the cost of what they were paying into the EU. Somebody had to pay for the French and the Irish and the Italians to get way more out than their Governments ever paid in.

                    Where is the contagion?

                    There is none.

                    This is warfare.

                    Think of the history,even back to the vangoths(sp) sacking rome.

                    I wouldn't have a clue but i suspect something changed in the power structure of europe.

                    Now we are talking about countries moving out of nato and going to the sco.

                    That is why the major shifts are happening today,or at least semi explains it.

                    When Putin talks,in front of crowds of very rich and influential people,well you have to see it to believe it and he is doing it all the time,you have to find it for yourself our media doesn't cover it.

                    The prize of course is turkey,which is still in our hands i think,god help us if it flips.

                      Very visionary of him to identify Turkey that far back. Hope he's found peace ...
