@GG and @DeBeers are going at it over on SMM. I’ll copy it here incase the post gets removed
“@GreenGhost $BA -In order:
1. I am insulting the zero hedge drivel–not you
2. When you demonstrate your knowledge of the supply chain, I’ll be glad to recognize it
3. Ford never took money and i never said they did.
4. One stock is necessary to the defense of the country and one (GM ) isn’t.
5. Any day, any time you wish to compare either due dil or stock returns bring it on. You can change your SMM name as many times as you are forced to but you are still an over bearing bully and it won’t work on me.
6. And, FYI oil has another leg down before the rebound which will come as soon as there are significantly fewer players”
