Yeah, that's roughly the picture. T-bonds and currency are
last to go. I would expect a wave of de-pegging as it goes.
I do view hyperinflation as a possibility, IF the Fed
continues to be very easy into all this mess.

As the foreigners bail, the dollar starts to fall faster and
long rates spike higher, the Fed will need to hike during
recession and despite a collapsing economy. If they don't,
then we'll have a very high inflation and a total collapse of
the currency. I'm not sure this Fed has what it takes. In
fact, I'm pretty sure they don't. :(
