The scariest part of all is the housing and consumer debt bubbles are in great part fueled by low interest rates which are low in large part to underreported CPI. That sums it up nicely. The big question for me is "Will it end slowly or quickly?" The US$ dropped by 1/4 against the Can$ even before the oil price spike. Will it just resume its decline, or will the feds manage to hold off inflation until it snaps? That makes a big difference when buying futures options. -g
