Do we need a UK Financial Implosion thread?

This was tweeted on 27 March. So by last Wednesday were we fretting over UK banks as the 'next cyprus'? Only if we were I must have either missed it or forgotten about it.

Yep! A wrong call. I could have called you a plank instead but its probably better to admit when not right about something
 
Why was he wrong? What in his method led to this error? And all the other ones. Why does it keep happening?

Dunno. Please post up why you think it is and provide something to support the Why does "it keep happening?" I notice your very good at asking for other peoples opinions but never provide any of your own.

Because he's simply a performer who knows that he has to say and make this sort of OTT predictions to a) interest simplistic mugs and b) keep his own mug in the spotlight.

How about you trying to have an answer to my questions now - you've avoided every single point or question pu to you from page one of this thread (and others). Did you ever think the reason for asking questions is to get you to have a think about what you've said. Don't fear questions mr junglevip, they can be a very useful tool.

As your such expert on this subject, why not ask him yourself? You could show him your posts which is an impressive body of work and you could probably get on his show. He invites people that dont agree with him to speak. It would mean that your in-depth knowledge would be able to reach a much wider audience than us lucky folk on the boards.

I think you'd do well

Why so defensive - why not actually say something?

Thats bollocks and I know you can do better. I am asking questions because I dont know about this stuff when I have your expertise I'll be able to answer them. Hopefully in a way that is better than what you have just posted

I have said all I can. I gave my opinion about the bond market collapse. I dont have the vast knowledge like you to provide more information. Please, we can all learn from you. Help the country out

You're not asking questions - you are saying that Max Keiser is a an authoritative source who needs to be listened to and then reacting with this embarrassing defensiveness when yet another of his definitive predictions turns to shit. I'm not interested in it.

He is compared to you. Your answer to the question "why does it keep happening?" was poor and you can do a lot better. All you seem to post is snot and bile. People want to believe what you say, the world could be a better place with your knowledge out in the open

Anybody would think that this prediction was ten years of work. It was a tweet. I was interested to see if it would be true myself. It was posted more as a bookmark than anything else
 
But if you make such bold, grandiose claims, then you'd better hope they come true otherwise why would people listen to you in future? He's like the David Icke of economics.

Big claim!!! If true, brag about it for life. If false, let it quietly slip away.

It was a tweet. The guy has been around a long time

I said that i wasn't interested and i'm not, i'm not going to help you embarrass yourself any further.

But before i go, snot and bile from this thread:

Twenty seconds of googling is the level of analysis I'd come to expect from you. Bullshiting is even easier than criticizing
I will read them but will only reply if they are not total and utter shit. I doubt I'll be replying but I live in hope
Poor, lets have you views. I posted my personal views as a layman. Not some link that I did not understand like that wanker butchersapron just did. Please I'd like to read them
More bullshit from a wanker such as yourself. I am not an expert as I have already said. It seems that people like yourself regard yourselves as experts because a few of your posts gets a like or two. Not credible
Thanks for the reply
I feel that you dont understand the subject well enough to criticize but give yourself a pat on the back for trying.
I suggest you learn to read, I will ask again. what are your views on the linked articles please?

And how many other claims has he made like this that are brushed off with, "oh, it's only a tweet!", "It was an off-the-cuff comment!", "I was speaking metaphorically!", etc., etc?

None as far as I know. Tell us please if you know otherwise
 
Tell us please

It should be on you to show why we should take this man seriously. He presents himself as an authority, you agree with him and think we should listen to him. Prove it.

If you could show us where he explains the reasoning behind that tweet, that would be good. As butchers, I think, said, some post-analysis on where he went wrong would be nice.

Ditto for this claim of total economic collapse before April 2013:
