      A lot of investors have restrained from the market because of the volatile and sudden crash in the market. But I've learned to understand that trading is quite different from just holding. There are short sales for bearish and long sales for bullish.

I make profit on weekly bases. Melisa is a trade queen. I love so much.

    Is it right Kwasi has a PhD, does anyone know what in. If he is a doctor - witch ?
    Sunak forecast the financial crisis Liz Truss's tax cutting would precipitate. Truss & Kwarteng then do not allow the Office for Budget Responsibility to examine their budget before its announcement. Certain people / organisations knowing the tax cutting is coming then make lots of money as a result of the crisis. Does this smell fishy ? Does it need investigating ?
