Personally I feel as I go around Usa and look around real estate values and compare it to rest of world.... I don`t see them over blown.... expect a few metro areas or in really rich neighborhoods .. so even if us government buys bad debt...with bailout money.. now and if things turn around I think they have pretty good chance of even making a profit on this bail money...... only if the money is used wisely of course........

I m hearing Royal bank of Scotland is having hiccups now.... suggest them a treatment.......

am waiting the market to correct further... seems it will go to 8K... dow down by 500 points today... I do not think our market can sustain when global markets are going down... best strategy is to wait and watch....

treatment for hiccups... Hmmmm Tell them to start a new East India company here. We will change their hiccups into chronic TB cough. I hate those UK people. Let them get lost of their own. shakti ...

An interesting article -- The Challenges of the New World Order America is no longer up to shouldering the world’s crises. But who is going to take its place? Russia, Brazil, China and India are all rising, but they are also competing with Europe and the US for finite natural resources. Only a common future -- a `change through rapprochement` and not a `clash of futures` can carry us forward. he Alfred Herrhausen Society, the international forum of Deutsche Bank, is organizing a new project entitled Foresight in order to analyze and compare the future visions of emerging and existing world powers. Through discussion and debate, it hopes to find elements for a common future. The inaugural event held in Moscow brought together participants from Brazil, China, Europe, Japan, India, Russia, the United States and other parts of the world to discuss Russia’s role in a multipolar world. Further symposia are planned in the United States after the presidential elections, Europe, Japan, India, China, and Latin America. These events will also include high-level participants from Africa, the Arab world, and the Asia Pacific countries. One of the main goals of this series is to see the world through the eyes of others, rather than through a purely Eastern or Western lens. New alliances that set countries against one another will not be able to solve the challenges of the 21st century. New forms of international cooperation, consultation, and compromise will have to play a central role in a multipolar world. It is absurd that Italy belongs to the G-8, but not China or Brazil. And what sort of meaning can a global security council have when India, Brazil, and the European Union are left out, while France and Great Britain are permanent members? Needed are new forms of international governance: in a world with diminishing resources and accelerating climate change, states might be tempted to pursue their own interests in order to gain short-term advantages. The challenge will be to devise a new international framework and an organized balance of interests. Only a common future -- `change through rapprochement` not a `clash of futures` -- can bring us further. Certainly, the past ten years provide much cause for pessimism. In order for the next ten years to be a success, we will need to be fortified by a credible, if skeptical, optimism. ...

Royal bank of Scotland will withstand the crisis. I am venkat from Training8m, Queensland, Australia...

DOW will end in green today.............

dear pkjattking, Lovely message. Just wanted to know why that delicate part has become red ? were you not aware of the dirty games of big players or you always wanted the markets to go up to 30-40K giving you sweat-less money always. Rub some aloe Vera gel there and it will cool down and become green. Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho... Wish happy markets ahead. But still i feel a possibility of 10% correction. regards shakti ...

Sir, Are you classified as a FDI or a FII? Do you invest in India on an individual capacity? And do you pay taxes on your profits from your Indian portfolio to the Government of India or to the US govt? Just curious. ...Singh......
