Claims have bumped up in the last few weeks because of Japan and supply shortages. Oh no, not you too. You sure it wasn't the snow? Reaper, sometimes there is a simple explanation for current conditions. Japan is the 3rd or 4th largest economy in the world and it got knocked to its knees by the tsunami and quake. It provides parts for many US industries. Add to that is China intentionally slowing its economy, and yeah, there is going to be an impact on global activity. In the future, if you want fantasy please don't post to me. I deal with facts not the craziness that people on this thread come up with. Sorry.
