    Liquidity = Liquidation = World Reserve Currency

    The inevitable second crash has begun, expect markets to freeze soon as the Politicians and Central Banks discuss bail outs in order to protect the buyers of Bonds

    Without a functioning Bond market the jig is up

    Cash sitting in peoples accounts will be the easy target, either via Inflation or direct "Taxation" all depending which country you live in

    The big traders of the world are selling/shorting everything and AUD is just another market on their screens - no different to orange juice

    KRudd's move back to the top spot might do some interesting movements for the FOREX. Only time will tell...
