<<Barclays Capital has advised clients to batten down the hatches for a worldwide financial storm, warning that the US Federal Reserve has allowed the inflation genie out of the bottle and let its credibility fall "below zero".>>

Had coffee today with several people who are really worried about the future. These people usually don't worry. One of the strengths of the dollar has been grain sold over seas. Kiss that goodbye as we won't have enough for our own needs.
