bart, have done some fairly informal comparisons, both against Weimar and Argentina: nowandfutures.com nowandfutures.com Thanks for the links. I read them and they reminded me what a messy, imprecise business economics really is. While some of the parallels are interesting, neither comparison is very compelling. I suppose that's only to be expected. There are just too many differences between the world of the 1920's and today to make the Wiemar comparison very exact. And the role/relative importance of the US in the world economy compared to Argentina makes that also a distant comparison. Maybe I should just stick to trading. foh
