            I've mentioned before that when I come across acronyms being used I ignore the post completely. Time is too short to try and look up what it means. :dunno:

              It is important to have two conkers.

                  Various members of the financial ruling elite are talking up a potential stock market crash. Here we go again! :doh: Round and round in circles. Could we not have a small break from all these crises, one on top of the other?

                    There's lots of money to be made out of a crisis, for certain people.

                            Stock market crashes usually rise again quite quickly (with some notable exceptions) so it's not worth thinking about what it does unless you dabble in it. :noidea: Most people that do dabble tend to spread their holdings through a number of country's stock markets so almost always end up winning.
