And when the Fed says they are determined to prevent further disinflation, even lousy currencies like the Euro will rally. Never underestimate the ability of a determined central bank to create inflation.

The great sugar rally continues. Very overbought and I wouldn't chase it here, but I'm still long and using a trailing stop.

The US dollar index is following the script I laid out a couple of weeks ago. A little oversold right now so you might get some kind of bounce, but 76 is the target.

Fundamentally there is no reason for the surge in the Yen. In addition, the BOJ finally seems to have had a revelation that their deflation is a monetary problem. At some point the yen will come down a lot. YCS is one way to play that or you can short the futures or short FXY. When will it happen? Hard to say but it feels close.

High yield bonds don't look as toppy as other markets, but I don't see spreads getting any closer. I am looking for an exit.

I've been pushing Peru for a long time now, but it might be time to take some short term profits. Very overbought and getting too much press attention.

As I've said before, the biggest beneficiary of easy Fed policy is Hong Kong. This chart should end that debate.

Taiwan is also a major beneficiary of easy Fed policy especially now that investment from the mainland is allowed.

The housing market still has major problems but home builder stocks are actually acting pretty good. Is that an inverted head and shoulders I see?
