Luc....reading the article about the Euro yesterday....The article mentioned that the indecisiveness of the Euro start will probably force the Euro bonds to be started at higher interest rates to suck in investors. IMO this will force FED's hand to do the same, thereby starting an interest rate escalation war as USA and Euro compete for reserve currency status. Will the FED try to short circut the EURO or will the FED go along with a strong EURO to bring down the USA economy by outside forces?

One thing that has inflated the stock market has been the FED printing money like there's no tomorrow....a large % of those $ finds its way to stocks. When $ supply tightens then the real bear will begin as $ begin to exit the economy in general.

For me, it's hard to envision a scenario whereby the US economy stays strong w/o inflation kicking in big time. We made the new highs with oil hitting a 18 year low. Think the market has any more tricks? I don't.
