Jester -- Is the timing interesting ?

Jester’s Place:

[JESTER] HI AND HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE...

[JESTER] JUST CHECKING IN TO SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING...

[chuck60] JESTER Not a question, but just a personal observation. AIIB received three Triple-A credit ratings from S & P Global, Fitch and Moody's Investor Service within a three week period. It may not mean a lot now, but I thought that maybe it would start to give AIIB some MSM financial outlets exposure, that doesn't seem to be too prevalent now.

[JESTER] chuck60 GOOD OBSERVATION... I STARTED TO PUT THAT ON THE FB PAGE AS A LITTLE PROGRESS BEING MADE ON LEGITIMIZING THINGS...

[chuck60] JESTER It was kind of interesting that each one was about a week apart.

[JESTER] chuck60 YOU THINK THE TIMING IS INTERESTING FOR SOME REASON...?


 [JESTER] WE NOTED IT BUT WE DIDN'T ASSIGN INTEREST TO THE TIMING...

[chuck60] JESTER No, just thought it was coincidental that each rating was a week apart from each other. Nothing other than an observation.

[JESTER] THERE WAS ANOTHER ARTICLE THAT SPECIFICALLY NOTED THE AIIB PRESIDENT SAYING THE DOOR WAS OPEN FOR THE US AND JAPAN TO JOIN...

[JESTER] I THOUGHT IT WAS INTERESTING THAT HE CAME OUT AND SAID THAT LIKE A CHALLENGE OF SORTS...

[JESTER] LET ME SEE IF I CAN RESURRECT THAT ONE... GIMME A MINUTE OR TWO...

[JESTER] AIIB President Jin Liqun says door open for US, Japan

[JESTER] SEOUL: The President of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) said on Saturday that the organization is keeping the door open for the US and Japan, two of the world's leading economies who are not yet part of the body.

[JESTER] THEY ALSO NOTED THE LACK OF COVERAGE IN THE PRESS ABOUT THE SECOND ANNUAL AIIB MEETING...

[JESTER] COURSE THEY ARE WAY BUSY TRYING TO FIND THE RUSSIANS IN THE ELECTION STILL... HAHAHA

[Betsy Ross] lol

[truth] lol

[clange] lol

[chuck60] JESTER Thanks for the article. I read sometime ago an article where the writer thought that Japan probably wanted to join, but was being held back by what the US would think.

[JESTER] chuck60 I'D SAY THAT IS THE CASE... IT HAS BEEN ALL ALONG ACTUALLY...

[truth] JESTER why do you think?

[chuck60] JESTER I think Japan may join sometime in the future . . . regardless of what US thinks. US is rapidly distancing themselves to "island" status in the world. IMO

[JESTER] chuck60 TRUMP IS A PRETTY SMART GUY... LET'S SEE HOW THINGS GO... IT HASN'T REALLY COME UP YET AND HE HASN'T HAD A CHANCE TO WORK ON IT...

[chuck60] JESTER I agree. Although he wants the US to still be a powerhouse, he definitely understands about worldwide cooperation.

 [JESTER] chuck60 WELL LOOK AT IT THIS WAY... THE AIIB IS THE BEST BANK GOING AND WE ARE NOT A PART OF IT... DOESN'T MAKE SENSE WE CUT OUR OWN NOSES OFF TO SPITE OUR FACE JUST TO POUT LIKE A CRYBABY...

[chuck60] JESTER Agreed. I think Trump and Munchin will push for the right things, with the best interests of the US in mind. The problem they'll have is getting past the idiots in Congress!!

[JESTER] chuck60 IT'S ONLY BEEN 6 MONTHS... WE GOT TIME YET...
