Cooky - the overall public seem to be oblivious to the possibility of a deep recession or worse!      The excessive credit crunch could ruin markets worldwide.     Silverado is well placed with its gold & alternative energy.    Inflation will rear it's ugly head - even China is experiencing increased costs in many areas.    Banks are having trouble trusting each other these days -  no one knows what the competition really has -  its all about excessive greed - the root of all evil!
