Did you mean peso?
There's more downside to FPA. The T/O rumours been around for a long time.
Having got ourselves into a debt-induced economic crisis, the only permanent way out is to reduce the debt – either directly by abolishing large slabs of it, or indirectly by inflating it away.

AMR has sold all shares and is pursuing property.

Here you go AMR. Hot off the press, as at 12.00 mid-day.
One RSI divergence as ordered.

This is a very expensive stock trading at high multiples. Abit like PPL if there is another downgrade, it will hurt bad.
