We picked up our complimentary copy of Malaysia’s New Sunday Times as we checked out of the Concorde Hotel in Kuala Lumpur early yesterday morning.
We didn’t bother reading any of it until the mini-van (we only travel in style you know!) had dropped us off at the shiny and spotlessly clean Kuala Lumpur International Airport.
And [...]

Your editor’s head is full this morning. We arrived at our Fitzroy Street office at 8.30am. But we didn’t type our first words until around 11am.
The thoughts in the Sayce brain are all trying to come out at the same time. And none of it is making any sense [Reader's voice: No [...]
Well, we’ve given the Super Profits Tax a fair shake of the sauce bottle the last few days, so we’ll mix it up again today before changing tack tomorrow.
But before we get on to today’s Money Morning, a brief announcement…
The guys and gals at the Melbourne Adam Smith Club have been crazy enough to invite [...]
Well, it looks as though the pathetic mainstream press has started to awaken from its slumber on the Super Tax.
Over the last day or so we’ve finally seen the penny drop as they realise the Super Profits Tax isn’t a tax on Super Profits, it’s just a bigger tax.
As our example showed yesterday, it’s not [...]
We’ll stay on the same subject as yesterday. The so-called Resource Super Profits Tax.
We have to admit to laughing out very loud indeed after listening to the Fairy Ruddfather’s interview on Perth radio yesterday. But more on that in a moment…
First, the Australian mainstream press can only be described as pathetic.
We’re quite serious [...]
Before we get on to today’s Money Morning, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to scoff at the further incompetence of government.
As you know, the federal government has spent billions on the stimulus package on the justification it will ‘create’ jobs. Well, now the insulation debacle has been cancelled, what else would a free-spending [...]
If it was possible for a market to whistle without a care in the world that’s exactly what it would be doing right now…
Greece on the verge of default – [whistle].
China trying to engineer a soft economic landing – [whistle].
US Federal Reserve increasing interest rates – [whistle].
Australian property bubble bubbling – [whistle].
Millions of your taxpayer [...]
We’ll take a break from bashing the Copenhagen soiree for today.
Mainly because we’ve got nothing further to add for now.
We had hoped to come up with some elaborate analogy to illustrate the foolishness of the Copenhagen Conference and how the 34,000 attendees won’t achieve one single thing that will benefit the environment.
But fortunately we don’t [...]
We thought we had today’s Money Morning all planned out. Yesterday we took a swipe at the banks and how they’re surviving by a thread.
In our guest appearance over at The Daily Reckoning we mentioned to those readers what we’ve written here. That any global treaty on Climate Change is merely an excuse [...]
Kris is putting the final touches to the November issue of Australian Small Cap Investigator, so I’m filling in today.
But so you don’t get too many withdrawal symptons, I’ve got a subject you’ll be familiar with…
Property!
You and me, we’re constantly bombarded by the media about the housing shortage. If that message isn’t in your morning [...]
