Intanto vediamo che esito avrà il braccio di ferro tra USA e Cina, due stati che saranno protagonisti di diverse analisi su questo blog nel corso della settimana.

Continuano i problemi con le commodities alimentari, vorrei ricordare che non si tratta solo di speculazioni si tratta di scarsita’ di raccolti…:

When alternative media outlets like SHTFplan and others warn of global food supply problems like we did in December of 2009 and just recently in our article Agflation Threat: Food Price Trend is ‘Terrifying’ we are often dismissed as fear mongers. Most of your neighbors, who spend their days looking forward to the next Jersey Shores party destination, have no clue what is transpiring behind the scenes, out of view of mainstream media.
Perhaps now they’ll start getting concerned, or, they’ll simply hope that world leaders will be able to find a solution to counteract the natural effects of weather and hyperinflationary monetary policy
Sulla guerra valutaria in corso:
http://economicsfreenews.blogspot.com/2010/10/currency-wars-view-from-trenches.html
From the Friday BBH FX Special. Also see Win Thin’s Thursday comments on this here.
Recent weeks have seen much talk about “currency wars”. This talk suggests that many countries are seeking the devaluation of their currencies in order to promote their exports, which in turn forces other countries to respond with similar efforts. It harkens back to the disastrous beggar-thy-neighbor policy that was seen between the two world wars. While the foreign exchange market is one of many arenas in which nation states compete for advantage, calling what is happening now a currency war is not only wrong — it is dangerous
Ecco cosa ci aspetta durante la settimana:
http://economicsfreenews.blogspot.com/2010/10/weekend-is-over-here-what-coming-in.html
The key release this week will be September retail sales on Friday. Also Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke will try to explain the objectives of QE2 on Friday “Monetary Policy Objectives and Tools in a Low-Inflation Environment”.
—– Likely, but not scheduled —–
Ceridian-UCLA Pulse of Commerce Index™ This is the diesel fuel index for September (a measure of transportation).

Un occhio su quello che sono costate le guerra fino ad oggi:

Federal outlays and revenues, 1940-2015
The following chart shows federal outlays and revenues from 1940 to the proposed levels in 2015. The difference between the two equals the federal deficit or surplus.
Un dubbio che l’attuale guerra valutaria non serva esclusivaente per incrementare l’export USA:

With the first phase of the post-financial crisis global economic bounce largely behind us, growth is becoming scarcer and countries are becoming more desperate – especially in developed countries with challenged exports and high unemployment. The United States, like other expansion challenged countries, fits this bill and is doing everything in its power to stem the tide by blasting foreigners’ currency policies in hopes of stimulating exports.
Political Hot Potato
The global race to devalue currencies in many ways is like a drug addict doing whatever it can to gain a short-term high. Sadly, the euphoric short-term benefit form lower exchange rates will be fleeting. Regardless, Ben Bernanke, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, has openly indicated his willingness to become the economy’s drug dealer and “provide additional accommodation” in the form of quantitative easing part two (QE2).
Unfortunately, there is no long-term free lunch in global economics. The consequences of manipulating (depressing) exchange rates can lead to short-term artificial export growth, but eventually results convert to unwanted inflation. China too is like a crack dealer selling cheap imports as a drug to addicted buyers all over the world – ourselves included. We all love the $2.99 t-shirts and $5.99 toys made in China that we purchase at Wal-Mart (WMT), but don’t consciously realize the indirect cost of these cheap goods – primarily the export of manufacturing jobs overseas.
Buongiorno, come sempre DT ha scelto i migliori links del giorno, comunque alcuni vorrei aggiungerli anch’io:
Il crash del 2010 e’ su di noi…:
http://economicsfreenews.blogspot.com/2010/10/crash-of-2010-is-happening-now.html
December of 2009 we published Gerald Celente’s trends for 2010, with a follow-up post in January titled Gerald Celente on Collapsing Markets, Terrorism, and Currency Devaluation. Reviewing Celente’s forecasts from nearly a year ago it’s clear that this man knows what he’s talking about, accurately predicting several trends that took hold this year including neo-survivalism, anti-immigration, the not-made-in-China movement, the rise of alternative media and the fall of the mainstream, as well as the crash of 2010, which many believe may be taking place right now. Celente not only forecast the Crash of 2010, but made specific note that it would be led by a currency crisis – which just so happens to be playing out in the US dollar as of late.
