Its abscence since 1980 has allowed bad policy to continue far longer than it should in Japan, US, and emerging markets. This goes well with my post at http://timelyportfolio.blogspot.com. With the change, yen gets clobbered also. inflation changes everything, and most likely represents the seed of destruction for poor monetary and fiscal policy.

Another varient on this theme concerns China. The threat of revolt or revolution in China could also change markets around the world. The US is going to come out of this a loser. Our financial stability may be rocked to its core. This could be the most profound comment upon the events in Egypt I have read. Another varient on this theme concerns China.
