No but you'd be smart to know when the next recession will hit. :wink:

Bond yield is inverted. Gold and Silver are up while Copper is down. Why is that an indicator ? Gold and Silver are considered a "safe haven" during an economic downturn while falling Copper prices indicate a slowdown in new construction. And so on.....

You can laugh it off if you want but being prepared for any contingency is never a bad idea.

I suggest that anyone in a tenuous financial position at least think of a Plan A if the indicators turn out to be correct. Nothing is written in stone so no telling what the future holds but like I said I'm working on my Plan A. If the global recession doesn't happen as predicted no problem, I've lost nothing by being prepared. :wink:

Oh God tell me about, although replace modules with software. I've bought like 3 plugs since Brexit vote day as everything has slowly become more and more unaffordable. Been obsessed with the pound to dollar exchange rate since vote day and been watching as it's threatened to breach $1.20 for ages. Yesterday it finally did it. I'm amazed its taken this long but the market has been completely delusional about it. Little bouncebacks every time an EU leader says something that could optimistically be taken as them changing their mind about renegotiating a deal, despite clarity this won't happen and there not being enough time left to do it anyway. I remember when news of the economy slowing came out the other week all the commentators were like "oh shit, we forgot actual economic data could influence Sterling too."

Wrong.
I hate to be wrong. :o

Really thought those were rumours spread my employees who got sacked because they turned up late every day. Well, it's a tough business, i guess, even for the "big" players.
The bigger you are, the less big mistakes you can make. I really hope NI will be OK and continue though.

otoh what has been undone can be done again. In the future. Going back to London with a passport ? Seems just weird.

Great! What Audio Companies are based in the UK?
This is the same method MJ used when he was working on Anthony Marinelli's Thriller.
