I suppose this will also pressure grain commodities and resource commodities. Both, being harmful to the prairie provinces and the people living here.

It does make you wonder how much longer governments and central bankers can keep the wheels on the wagon. I remember the 500 point per day stock market drops of Sept 2008. Once it starts to go, it goes fast.

Its like catching a sharp falling sword.

Hold it by its tip and let it fall vertically.

Try catching the handle.

Once you've missed the handle where are you going to grab it... the longer it falls the faster it moves. Fast moving sharp blade...

It's like a falling grain market... pretty hard getting a bid in a fast falling market...no one knows how far it will fall and wants to buy too early if there is more downside available.

Let it fall to the ground... Then everyone wants to pick it up!
