I am on SI as a Canadian resource trader. 30 years. The metals are screaming today for three primary reasons:

1) China did not raise interest rates even in the face of a 5.1 CPI and 6.1 PPI. The reason was to keep the yuan down for export reasons and fear of civil unrest.

2) Europe is a mess (except Germany). We all know the problems with greece, ireland and portugal, but the 800 lb gorilla is spain which cannot be rescued.

3) US: With this huge addition to the debt via tax cuts to the rich and no end in sight, and which cannot be substitued for QE as it is not very stimulative, and monster foreign trade deficit; ANd the clear fact our congress has beocme totally dysfunctional.

The world is looking at the US in disbelief.
