In an important way, January 2010 is little different than January 2009. A liquidity induced rally in the stock market along with trillions of  dollars borrowed and spent hoping to restart a stalled economy has come and gone.

The recovery is tentative at best because its not a recovery at all, it's a lull in the storm, a storm that is still coming. 2009 was like a volcano into which water was poured. That it didn't erupt is taken as a sign that it will not, a desperate bet at best.

This is far more a financial crisis. We are on the verge of a great shift and the collapse of the financial system is only one of many to come. Ecological disasters are on the way. The large earthquakes off the coast of California and in Haiti are precursors of more.

Extraordinary times are ahead.

Good luck,

Darryl Robert Schoon
