Quote from: JOE on Today at 02:25:44 PMThat pm has a lot more power than people think avatar_Shen Li Shen.

'Carry Trade'. Go look it up.

Even your fellow Singaporean & millionaire Sean Foo refers to it as a potentially earth shattering (7:00 minutes of video)


If this PM gets the bank governor ta pull the trigger on interest rates, watch out. It could send stock markets & the world economy reeling everywhere. That could impact your investments & everyone else too Shen.

She's got a lotta clout & she knows it. So do nations dependent 9n the carry trade as well.
Pussycat, remember what I told you last night after we had sex last night about derailing threads. it is not how you get people to interact with you.

Carry Trade is likely the big reason Trump is cozying up to Japan, saying nice things about them.

Quote from: Lokmar on November 24, 2025, 09:37:33 AMActually, no. I keep telling him he needs to go get a credit for it. He mostly learned from internet sources and he met a few people that spoke it that helped him along. I cant remember what N level he is but he's way beyond the first 2 levels available at the local university.


I can't speak Korean.

Actually, no. I keep telling him he needs to go get a credit for it. He mostly learned from internet sources and he met a few people that spoke it that helped him along. I cant remember what N level he is but he's way beyond the first 2 levels available at the local university.

Quote from: DKG on November 23, 2025, 10:21:12 AMI wish her all the success in the world tackling Japan's litany of problems. BUT, the prime minister of Japan is not the same as the prime minister of Canada. In Canada it as an all powerful position much more powerful than the POTUS in the U.S.

The new pm of Japan cannot rule as a dictator like Trudeau and Carney. She must seek consensus or her party will dispatch her in favour of a more compliant leader. That is the reality of Japanese politics. In some ways it is better than Canada, but it means a pm is a puppet.
