La fracture (le retour)

Presented with little comment, but while there are numerous reasons for elevated oil prices (from short-term supply disruptions, middle-east tensions, and emerging-market demand) it appears something broke in Q1 2009 between a proxy for world trade (or indeed for ship-building mal-investment in hope-driven excesses continuing) and the cost of fulfilling that demand.

 After 25 years of credit-driven Keynesian (monetary-to-fiscal-policy reach-around) planning, it would appear it is different this time as the potential for infinite supply of fiat currency clashes with the ‘finite’ supply of hard assets (crude oil in this case)…

 Much as we question who gained from Draghi’s first year of action in Europe, we suggest this chart clarifies who did not benefit from Bernanke’s experimentation…
