Apparently he wants what has happened to the Shanghai Stock Exchange
Index which - reflecting China's "vibrant market economy - is down
over 60%% in the last year - from a high of a bit over 6,000 last fall,
it has fallen to 2,000. That is a drop of over 60%%.

Yes Fred, but we need to take the long term view of such natural corrections
in the markets role of the capitalist model, don't we? Surely this 60%% drop
is a sign that the system is working correctly, yes?
Unless of course, one was a few weeks from retirement and couldn't wait any
