“Jobs market remains strong in Brazil; unemployment down to 5.3% in August.”

“In August last year, Brazil's jobless rate also stood at 5.3%.”

So the effect of all the government attempts to “fix” the problems by “fixing” the markets has not achieved a damn thing.

And WHY is that? Only real progress with the economy with thought-out support, etc. has a chance of working.

But that would mean the “government” would have to know what it is doing and it has demonstrated time and time again it is flailing around doing this and that and changing its mind.

So Mr. Market is doing what he knows best: putting everything back to how it really is.

The government in Britain decided it could “fix” the problem with the pound some years ago and dictate to the markets what the value of the pound would be. People like me knew there was going to be a real shake-up and then along came Soros, and the rest as they say, is history.

ALL governments get a power delusion that THEY are what matters. They demonstrate the fact that they know nothing and the country ends up picking up the tab, just like the ordinary people of Britain had to.

As long as you understand Mr. Market you can survive and even MAKE MONEY. But you have to be careful that the stupid government doesn’t try to pull a flanker.
