Ring of Fire

Google "Ring of Fire". We've had 3 of the 4 corners

Cattle futures hit an ALL TIME high. Who says there is no inflation? If you don't eat meat or drive, I guess. NOT!

Bond Bubble

WSJ reports that Bond mutual funds had $4 bil investment inflows for the 6th week running. TIME TO SELL THE BONDS? Oh yeah.
