ashraf is iranian, so has a slight bias on news events, but don't take it out of context Rhiwad :)
JUST when the markets see to be correcting themselves, i read this....http://bit.ly/interestraterisetelegraph
wheat has had a 50% increase this year and thats having a knock on effect at Greggs! (no more doubling up on my usual order of cheese and bacon turnovers & apple danishs')
more seriously infalation has raised its head! after all the talk of deflation things seem to be spinning round quickly on this one too. Dry goods may well be dropping in price but the relentless increases in commodities and grains has to be paid for at the end point, we all have to eat right?
Q. Could some of the current uplift in usd x's be more long players realising that interest rates for the rest of the world may have to rise to dampen inflation , leaving the usa happily stimulating away, fearful of a debt laiden mortgage market into further repo's? if so 1.62-1.68 suddenly doesnt seem so unachievable. thought s anyone??

Israel cannot attack Iran...Iran is full of russian "business men" since Yeltzin , Mafia, Putin is godfather. Iran has the world's most advanced russian defense weaponry. Iran has exclusive access to russian GPS Glonass. Israel has zero chance against Iran.
Nevertheless if an attack failed then EUR will drop like a stone USD skyrockets as well as Gold and oil.

Yes indeed, gold would be a major safe haven, and oil would gain from the fear premium. Perhaps the CH would regain some momentum as well as a safe haven?

rrose, any rumours of such an attack would fire up EUR and GOLD, and damage USD

Weve had flashes about this back in summer 2008
