Comment AML is not the problem for Lagarde (Score 1) 126

Has anyone considered that the AML 'problem' is just a wool screen? I think the real problem for Lagarde, is that investors have an alternative to pile into as opposed to: 1. Equities (either failing or becoming overpriced) 2. Currencies (probably being printed in bulk) 3. Gold that is in demand, expensive, and I presume largely now held/sold by Central banks? What are your thoughts on this?

I thought so. I was wrong. My step dad was very pursuaded by the video. I was going to watch it to unpick it for. Him, but it was taken down. My step dad is 60 and builder/handiman by trade. He is far from unintelligent too(above average). The bit that surprised me is that because his English comprehension on the poor side, I think the video was in another language... The WhatsApp link showed an older guy in the preview. How the hell was he sold this s##t?

I wanted to see if anyone else had the same question. Do you think Mozilla is trying to nail down how it's loosing its market share? It's not like their product is bad, or substantially worse than the competition. I reckon they detect foul play... Nothing new in the browser sphere. I am really looking forward to see how competition plays out for Google. In particular to their long forgotten 'do no evil' ethics. To think that this catchphrase made Microsoft blush. What will it take for developers to say enough is enough with Chrome.

A friend recently told me to try the John Hopkins one. I find it looks exactly like the WHO version (https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/685d0ace521648f8a5beeeee1b9125cd) , but just in dark. WorldOMeter selection of statistics are very informative: https://www.worldometers.info/... To see how much impact awaits us, i recommended comparing the country you are interested in with: China - where the numbers have not largely flatlined (number of cases is not growing significantly in comparison to closed cases). Good for seeing overall mortality. South Korea - which has the highest number of tests run. Italy - a sample of how bad things could get.
