Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

I will imprudently predict publicly something that I only have cursory foundation to speculate upon.

This is a repeat of Mitsubishi buying Rockefeller Center immediately before the crash in '89. This is being done on presumptions of things remaining the same and being different at the same time, and every tangent being profitable to the max. The flimflam spivs behind the deal will figure the deal in such a way that they will make top of the market money on the sale and somehow repossess the assets when it collapses at pennies on the dollar...and somehow suck it dry with dividends the whole time.

Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.
