Not a fan for 6 mines. I think they will get it and I do not want to be a mine owner. I only want to be a coke washer.

Shanxi has a great future but I'd rather partner with Agrium via Hanfeng than hold Puda and lose sleep over mining accidents, delays, and dillution.

I liked buying this year @ .17 and would again...if a mine is not acquired.]]>

New Mark-to-Market Rules: Playing Pretend http://seekingalpha.com/article/129479-new-mark-to-market-rules-playing-pretend?source=feed#comment-452495 452495 1. Banks loan the money to the friendly counter party to buy the worthless securities.
2. The loan is now counted as an asset on the banks balance sheet.
3. These banks assets begin the appearance solvency.
.
4. Then their friendly counter party plays the same game and counts the worthless asset at face value.
5. This gives the counter party another asset.

When did Enron acknowledge their loans were non performing?

Government's Failure to Communicate http://seekingalpha.com/article/129523-government-s-failure-to-communicate?source=feed#comment-452463 452463 First, you have the bank stocks which was inflated by the bank's huge leverage.
Then you're using that as collateral for margin loans = more leverage.
With that money you are buying hedge fund and private equity stakes which are levered.
= Three layers of leverage.

What exactly do you want them to say?
"Leverage TARP and double down baby! This is free money and take what you can as fast as you can before someone figures this out!"
