<If this Cyclical contraction in Dollar demand/liquidity takes hold it could easily last for a good 2 years and I would imagine that all the relationships that we have taken for granted should be thrown out the window.> Agreed... as we've discussed before, economists have worried for decades [an now forgotten about it!] that the reserve currency status had potential problems... ie. reserve holders wanting to switch. Of course now the reserves are infinitely higher vs other potential reserves and economists don't think it's an issue any more. That's the way the world works. DAK
