William, Soros or no Soros I just cannot see Japan sitting idly watching their Market slowly bleeding to the point of shock and doing nothing. Threfore I really think that either Asia will tank Big when Nikkei drops below support at 14,000+ and would take down everything that is in vicinity or they would do something drastic to change the rule of the game and to strengthen Yen-none of it will be pleasant for USA Market and bonds... It is truly a Rock and a Hard Plate and Soros is a small fish in Globality of the situation...

William Jepsen: "get your deflation waders on" Mixed signals result in mixed opinions. When the US dollar and Stock market "corrects", then the waders will be handy. Until then, the argument continues in/deflation. But I agree with you. However, will the Fed allow the scenario, or will they avoid deflation by massively printing money or lowering interest rates? Japan is reportedly keeping its printing presses working overtime now. IMO, the only thing more worrisome for the Feds than inflation is deflation. Either way, seems like gold is the poor orphan, unless of course something more than a correction occurs. Phil
