Bottlenecks being taken care. Shipping costs posed to come down (2010) as new shipping capacity comes on stream. Brazil just doled out USD48 billion on subsidized credit to commercial farmers. Just now China awaken for the deep water oil search. Don't worry be happy. Just dob;t dream of 'flight to quality'

I'm not thinking at all it's ridiculous - the dollar, gold, oil, and stocks are all correlated. Oil screwed up Bernanke/Bush/HP plan of injecting new debt liquidity into the banks and stocks. If it drops, stocks will rally. Shows this is not deflation they are fighting, rather, a banking and currency crisis. Excess liquidity went into oil pronto. If they succeed breaking oil, they can direct it into stocks and succeed in inflating the "useful" financial bubbles further. Hey, financial bubble (derivatives) is only a quadrillion, as compared to 1 trillion in commodities. Which one is bigger? Do we hear anything about it? Is anyone talking about dangerous speculation in financial assets? Maybe, breaking some speculators? Increasing some margins? Nope. Once it pops, it will take down the Fed AND the dollar, but it keeps growing. They can't hold the dollar. Repeat. Nope, they CANNOT hold the forex market longer than 3-4 months, it is huge, the interest rates differentials and the fundamentals are aweful for the dollar, and that's exactly what the rapidly falling dollar demonstrated over the past year. Some day this newly found goldilocks breaks, and the dollar starts a free fall again.
