ParticipantI hear loud and clear that this is bad news, but anyone care to try and quantify the what, where and when. Are we in for another wave (or continuation) of bank insolvencies, credit freezes, and stock market roller coasters?

Participant[quote=barnaby33] Fundamentally when debt is paid in a fiat system, money is destroyed and the pool of available money shrinks.
Technically, people are trying to acquire dollars and they are in shorter supply (because of demand for them) they become a commodity unto themselves and respond to that scarcity.
[/quote]Josh, I really enjoyed this theory even if it did go over my head a little. I’m not even going to take a stab in the dark at the first para? When you say the dollar is becoming a commodity, do you mean cash reserves or USTs, or both?

ParticipantI’m no economist, but I agree with peterb and kewp, up to the point where we are now, ie a correction is taking place. But as I understand it, factors outside the credit bubble, such as food price increases, which some say is caused largely by biofuel projects, and oil prices which seem attributable to several factors, are also a part of the inflation equation.
As to the dollar strengthening, it’s all relative isn’t it? Currencies like sterling and to an extent the euro have been weakening, due to their respective weakening economies, which makes the dollar appear to be strengthening. Just my very small penny’s worth.
