Thanks for posting; and especially your analysis. Fed Chair Bernanke has make clear its time to move our exports. In order to do this, the dollar must drop.

And I can hardly believe the "quoted" in the article is suggesting that "hyperinflation" has been running throughout the past while. ROFLMAO. Were this so, we'd be seeing massive evidence of it, worldwide.. creeps and signposts. There's been ZERO. And you know the MSM like I know the MSM, they had nada to report on the markets; and so they focused on the nth dead soldier. Blah.

I'll tell ya what's hyperinflated: The liberal MSM.

Interesting you should bring up exports. I read this today.

The latest data from the Port of Long Beach, Calif., indicate that U.S. exports remain very strong. Outbound containers were up 21% vs. a year ago in February, to 109,963. Interestingly, inbound containers were up just 0.9% vs. a year ago, perhaps pointing to improvement in the U.S. trade picture in the coming months. While that would be welcome news, a slowdown in U.S. imports would signal a slowdown in consumer spending, so these data bear watching. More likely, however, the data reflect a slowdown in activity related to the Chinese New Year.

The size of containers reported by the POLB ranges from 20 feet to 50 feet long. The POLB is the second busiest port in the U.S. and one of the world's largest seaports. More than $100 billion worth of cargo moves through the port each year.
