The Great Dollar Pump of 2008: A Doomed Central Bank Intervention [View article]
Problem is, company A actually owes everyone $100's and no one owes company A anything. There's going to be a point very soon that companies no longer accept Company A's monopoly money. World banks are converting to Euro's at breakneck pace and recently some OPEC countries announced they will no longer accept Dollars as payment. The run up of the dollar is great for world banks that want to convert without losing money.

I think the mutuals backed out of the financials and went back to commodities again. One only needs to look at the market volumes over the last 2 weeks to see the migration. The rise in oil has nothing to do with reality. The flood of speculators into the NYMEX creates irrational rallies across the board. We only notice the oil though.
