The other thought is deflation of local assets, inflation of more world-economy related assets...oil, gold, food/commodities. SG

Skeets, that is likely the course we'll be on. The inflation will come from within, and without (via currency loss). I continue to believe that 2009 will be brutal. This year's debacle was fear -- total meltdown, incomprehensible numbers tossed around like pizza dough, gas prices reaching to $5/gallon, political death rattle -- but next year's will be one of actual hardship. Already I hear of layoffs all around. The big de-leveraging in the job market will be the military industrial complex. For every one of those jobs, 3 service jobs will vanish. Inflation will likely take over center stage by next summer, perhaps sooner if UPS delivers a box of money to my door.
