Neighbour Deserves A Civil War -- An Economic Booster

With all due respect and salute to my brothers, sisters and fellow country men ........
I know "tongue burns later but the fossil first" I was talking of a 'hot cup of tea' and the "process” with due respect ....................to my fellow mumbaikars here is what I mean....
Morning, 12 September, 2001
I said I am your friend..... with due respect to your highly credible intelligence agencies I can still take an oath my government and system can never dare to do what has happened .... Sirrrr...
Okay....... Sir they had even holded our breathe for too long now, trust me sir even we want to control them ......but due to some financial constraints we had been pressurised a bit..
What .......
You know they are our people and you committed that “we will kill our brothers"
Then 'what to say' "he categorically mentioned within 6 hours they will remove our integrity from world map" ...........................by killing our brothers we will hardly be able to maintain anyway.General, you know what our people are calling us " King Cobras " ....king cobras are the only snake who eat other snakes .... its a same.... at least why you allowed them to use our air base and our soldiers ..... just to remind you they are our brothers we have deputed them to Taliban just some time back and now you have ordered our army to kill them..............our own brothers.
I am shocked Mr.K**** you are senior most person and you don't understand under what circumstances I said yes.
Ohhhh................ there is two good news for us after long 7 years........
Indian Economical capital had been shaken and our guys left all the proofs which can be ample evidence of our role in the attack.....................
So, we have put all our balls right....... “Have our role been proved" ....Hmmmm it will be in next 2 days ..ample proofs have been left even the least civilized nations can trace our roles .
Good ... So finally she has started putting pressure on us let's keep rejecting our role for some more time and let India build some more international pressure on us.
Sir , Indian media has started discussing "WAR" .... ohhh that’s going in our direction.
Madam ... Good Morning.. Yes we condemn the attacks sincerely but unfortunately we are also victims of the same terror ... we will co-operate.
Sir, India had done some sorties ...let's pull the trigger. Go and announce we can strike immediately ... do some sorties ... create some hysteria..... I will talk about troop pullout with US today.
Yes, Madam that's correct India is posting a war and we need to defend ourselves we need to pull out from North West frontier till the situation cools off.
Mr. K****** start pulling our forces this is the best time to pull out, we should on slightest trigger from India ... You know we will not lose more than some thousand people fighting within India but in this war against terror we will kill all our people and the discontent will lead to a civil war.
Sir, India has categorically denied "War" and now US is questioning our troop withdrawal..... looks like we are failing....... Shall we impose war on them.... That will isolate us we can't be the first movers.

Hmmmm... so the buggers were smart but why should we waste our bullets when they themselves are heading towards a 'civil war'..... (somewhere in N** D****).

Laden To Lehman.............The Evolution of Mamba

My Problems did rarely hurt me it was my neighbors (SU - not physically) pride which gave me nightmares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is sometimes in 80's I have completed almost 2 centuries of post independence and had also proved in disguise of the peace process several times my power , …….at least once I did something ( in Jap..) which no one else has dared to ....but that gave us "Super Powers" tag.
I am not happy with my neighbour who has also started building a palace just in front of mine, I am not sure whether there will be any real problems but yes it will take off my glory for some time.
I am thinking of an outside support to one of my neighbors team member as I can see he is little “radical” ( Osa... B.. lade.) and is also capable of at least gathering 10-12 people.
I started giving him all the support to first move away with his people from the palace and also to ensure the palace is never made.
In the process I made & lost some money (selling of arms and funding the war)..........ohhh! It took the shittyfundamentalist (O....B..L....) 12 long years to break away but now I can see my neighbour wagging his tail to me for even food.
Sir “The fundamentalist you supported is conspiring against us”
Oops!!!! I never new this guy will start asking so much. In the disguise of funding and boosting the economy, I have to increase my consumption and spending many a times although "Fed" used to honour my wishes every time but now my people have become lethargic although my currencies value have also shredded within my system, but I have created lot of smart financial institutions who are able enough to cover all this.

Oh my god Oh my god .........the shitty funda….t
"When did the water snake became a Mamba " he has blown my knees (9/11) I have to kill the bast*** .......how many problems do I have to fix at the same time?
But Sir ……
You have just some time back fixed technical error done by Mr. X (God)
ohh .... those oil wells ( "Iraq") I don't know why they were on the wrong side of the border!!!!! & now this "Mamba" ohhhhhh
Yes Sir.....
Anyways I forgot to introduce myself to you I am "Black" if he is "Red" and I think you all know I a more dangerous.
You know what I did last time ?????
Its so simple "" Mr. Fed" cuts down interests--- increase consumption ----- high demand for property and commodities --- values of assets go up ----- more and more money pushed into the system ---- I have all the I- Banks ( who will make sure that 1 Re = 100 Re .... hahahaha ….leverage) ----- hmmm so very high growth ----- everyone's memory will fade away with good times (post 9/11).......
Morning:
Ohh really so 1 of my I- Banks went bankrupt !!!!! Why?????

Mr. Sam because on your orders they lended money to the creditless people ...and you know it has caused a very big problem for us now " Sub-Prime Crisis " ....
ohh don't utter those complicated words you know I only know politics......
Ok Sir but what we do .... the I- Banks have started falling like pack of cards?
Don't worry I am looking for more "Water snakes" ... Can we get one in Iran & another in China......................
It will solve our problem ....you will very soon see the GDP growth numbers moving upside down in the IMF list...we will be on the top ....
Sir you are forgetting there is a "land of Gandhi" ................
hey you don't know our friend Blair’sforefathers did a great job before they came back .... there is a " Rattle snake" (Pak....n) near by which will never allow them to breathe............
Sir , You are great!!!!!!

Tail You Lose Head I Win - Lehman , ML Neutral to IIMS

Just a day, and couple of hours ago amidst the continuos knocks of the lappy and the irritating sound of tea sips I overheard some small noises coming from the red bricks on one of the greatest Indian Televison Entertainers (some news channel) ... what would be the impact on the "Placements of Indian White Collars "

I will not say I totally disagree with the thoughts of the reporters as I completely agree that they are competing in a rats race and it becomes difficult to maintain quality and quantity everytime .....but if I would have a chance I have gone one more step ahead and thought of the practical impact and my previous philosophies tell me " A beauty can't be ditched "  .......  if not I Banks there would be someone else who will buy me in the "Auction".

But the obvious impact would be to the 2nd tier schools for sure as the top recruiters of 2nd tier might shift to the 1st tier now......
 
The one question which comes to my mind always is "Is US Recession a Bad News for the Emerging Markets and Low Cost Geographies "

I cannot go beyond my "Excel" which always show me green ( as cells are formatted to turn green if the numbers are positive) ... probably it is trying to say " Margin compressions will further trigger the outsourcing process " and this time we might get even the " Manufacturing Processes " or may be sooner or later the " Strategy Getting Outsourced".

If I am right then why others are wrong and If I am wrong then why Hyundai , Jabil Circuit , Cisco Systems , Nokia , Siemens have started increasing their facilities in India ????

I don't think " Obama's personal likes and dislikes makes a significant decision to US corporate and Financial world " Although it does in India ......  Ratan Tata might have to take a cool sip of Rs  15 billion with an Italian Champagne!!!!!!

Fundamental vs Technical ----- Previous didn't work ,latter I din't like

As usual, this was the time when the bull’s feet had the inertia of early teens, greena was in the air, he was most of the time negotiating with the watch. Surely few things were keeping him away, from insertions ....... and one day finally sometime in late January when he decided to stamp the open threads and walked away from his socks (this were the same which where giving him comfort till now or where pretending to take away, he now realized that the comfort was giving him a higher degree of uncomfort ……they were also keeping the threads open).
The bugger had decided everything at 3.30 P.M and had put to stakes whatever meager he achieved till now on the bulls toe while waiting for the teen on the station, suddenly the so called economists, made some changes, to the so called macro factors and in the run made some aliens the culprits who took all the credentials and no one bothered about the time when the bugger has betted his b....s.
, it surely took him couple of weeks to fill the vacuum left by the losses/culprits but as usual he was sure that he was too late rather than questioning the fundamentals or the teen.
By now he used to see the ups and down on the fundamental movements but were never enough to fill his vacuum but surely always pulled him away from doubting the intrinsic of the teens/ fundamentals.
Somehow as people say that time is the best healer he was more like a deer who waste's most of his time in searching something within and was always cursing himself for the flaw of insertion or the late commitments.
During the same period many technical calls did came some of which were too good and much more strong than the fundamental teens but he being a wall street bugger used to rate them always below the teens , at least 3 of them were really 'mind blo.......'.
People say fundamentals tell you what to buy while technical’s say when to buy but something which bugs me most is
'Whether the fundamentals are really worth getting into? If it was so then why time of insertion was that material?'
“Secondly are technical’s that bad that the bugger didn't give them a chance?
“Wasn't one mistake enough for the bugger to not give chance to the technicals?
if the previous question is right then the saying ' life moves on ' is may be incorrect?
Last question was the fundamental itself technical?
What better can bullish investors who sold his pants to the bear and asked for mercy to the vampires can give you here??????
