As it always is in times of crisis, we are seeing a flight to government bonds. Everything else appears too dicey, with mortgage applications at a nearly 8 year low, estimated food inflation for this year may be at a 28 year high, and home prices in high priced areas falling like a stone, even if volume is up a bit.

In energy and currency, the dollar is up a bit, as is oil, though neither are up significantly, and gasoline is down for the 34th straight day, and it’s now down about 10% from the peak.
