Entendons nous bien! Bertrand va se faufiler dans tous les groupes de la bourse et chauffer les actions du Bitume bitumineux, il les fera mousser, il dira qu’elles s’enlèvent, qu’on se les arrache, qu’elles montent comme des ballons……..Vous, Baron, qui avez un certain chic, vous allez en acheter à 20/00, 30/00, 100/00 d’augmentation. je les ai toutes en portefeuille, on ne pourra donc pas vous les livrer, nous les vendrons ce que nous voudrons et la providence fera le reste. (Bertrand) En avant, marchons. Contre les dindons, Volons……. etc.

I CALL YOU TO ORDER... SILENCE! WELL, SINCE RINGING MY BELL SEEMS TO HAVE NO EFFECT, I SUSPEND THAT MEETING AND TAKE MY HAT!... NOW YOU CAN ALL DO WHAT YOU WANT!
