The Interesting Case Of 'The Zaïre'... The Question MMT Cannot Answer — Eric Nies

So MMT doesn't work in a country with a history of chaotic management. Big surprise. I dare say the police and criminal justice system doesn't work too well there either....:-)

The Bailey Brothers Building and loans gang. That got every market call right for over 2 years.


They never got this one right. If you read the comment section

" We can settle this -- choose any size bet that is collectible and I will call you any size you want that the Dollar will be higher in Q1 2021 than the levels seen today. And I mean any size bet you can muster.

How about that? "


I wish Mike had taken that bet
