The Era of Cynical Realism

One of the most entertaining aspects of the wired world is the spread of global consciousness between cultures and disciplines.
The manner in which Postmodernism dominated the late 20th century is being advanced by Cynical Realism in the early 21st.
From the art of Liu Xiaodong in China to much current Political Philosophy in Europe, Cynical Realism is a definition for our age.
The viral cross-disciplinary nature of this movement of ideas leads us to observe that Cynical Realism also defines the trading philosophies of leading traders both in Asia and Europe. It certainly is a foundation of our operation.
Cynical Realism has evolved from Huxley's observation that "it’s the intelligent man’s best excuse for doing nothing in an intolerable situation" to becoming an individual's reason for doing something in an intolerable situation.
