The market won't be in the mood to let Russia or other external events intrude on reality. Things must build in the background until they can no longer be ignored: that is until they effect us directly. For the time being, people will ignore Malasia, Russia or other problems and will just "let the good times roll". Maybe people will wake up one day next spring and will say to themselves, "Damn, this Russia thing really is serious and they've got all those nuclear warheads in God knows who's hands. My gosh, the world is falling apart and the U.S. may go with it." That's when people and the market may react. Things have to reach "catharsis" as they did this summer - after a long gestation period.

The IMF has taken it's position, forced Brazil to take the bitter pills, and it has no way of backing out of the demands on Russia. The US and the rest of the west will have to save it from itself. This has got 1920 something in Germany written all over it. Can 1929 be far behind?
