I might add that I've been thinking about this for a couple of days and I wouldn't be at all surprised if the movement in the stock market today basically reflects the same questions from investors. Yesterday the Dow Jones Industrial Average came within striking distance of its historical high of six years ago. It didn't do too well today. I'm wondering how long it will be before we're hearing that old refrain: "the fundamentals are sound?"

Perhaps I should restate my question. I'm actually wondering to what extent these substantial commodity price movements might be foreshadowing dramatic events in financial markets more generally.

Does anyone have any non-glib thoughts on this? Not that I don't appreciate humour. It's just that I can't tell over the internets if the laughter is hearty or nervous.
