Zeev, I did not intended in my post to state that those advances will materialize within one year, as the world GDP is something around $35-$38 trillion, but it will over time and there is a great demand for infrastructure in many places around the world and not only telephone lines (it was an easy example as I know some about it).

My point is that as soon as confidence is restored those projects will be like a vaccum cleaner soaking up every available dollar. Presently the confidence is not there but it can reverse quite quickly. See what happened in Russia after Yeltzin left, their stock market tripled in a mater of 3 months and it is a tiny market.

the point I am trying to make, is, that at those lofty levels of the dollar, stock market and trade deficit the US financial markets are on thin ice.

As to the trade deficit ...... bad habits die hard ......
