The website www.move-back.de even announced that on September 5, 2001, planes with huge advertising banners would fly over the metropolitan areas of New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, urging people to return to their homeland. We didn't see anything. It was probably a harebrained idea from Swabia that had been sitting in a drawer for three years. Well, if there had been at least 100 Deutschmarks as a welcome gift, like back in the day for East Germans, I might have considered it ... but joking aside: folks, I believe that hard times are ahead for you guys in Germany. I dare to predict that the German stock market will be hit in the same way, with a delay of about 6-12 months.
