Black Swan [April 12, 2013]

Black Swan [April 12, 2013]

Hedge against the breadth of sell,

sell-off, will, expectation that meteoric

may be coming to an end of gains,

relentless selling, gold, for the first time

since the market.

“While gold is often used as a hedge against inflation the breadth of the recent sell sell-off will underline some expectations that gold's meteoric rally may be coming to an end after 12 years of gains.

The relentless selling sent gold below $1,500 an ounce for the first time since July 2011, and put the market on track for its worst weekly performance since December 2011.”

North Korean Suicide Biography [April 5, 2013]

North Korean Suicide Biography [April 5, 2013]

The Wise have no friend

Save the truth, martyred.

Save you a martyr, gain

A tyrant. Monks self-ignite

Because they cannot bear harm

Beyond their self-usurpation.

Korea is myself;

I set myself afire.

“Saying he spoke as a friend, Castro wrote in Cuban state media that North Korea, led by 30-year-old Kim Jong-un, had shown the world its technical prowess and now it was time to remember its duties to others.”
