If you thought that zero rates and quantitative easing were a bad dream that we can all forget, you may be in for a surprise. It is again becoming clear that deflation remains the overarching structural threat to the world economy.
A few brave analysts are already starting to flag a return to emergency QE as soon as next year, convinced that the US Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank have over-tightened and set in motion a deepening credit crunch.

The cost of buying insurance against a U.S. government default has shot to its highest level in more than a decade, in an early sign of market concerns about the political impasse in Washington over the debt ceiling.
Amid a stalemate between the White House and congressional Republicans on raising the federal borrowing limit, the price of five-year credit default swaps -- the most widely traded form of debt insurance -- reached its highest since 2012 this month.

Increasing numbers of national governments are abandoning the U.S. sphere of influence. Opportunities from trade with Asia compare favourably with rising currency and banking risks in a dollar-centric world.
Against an imploding banking system in long-established financial markets, China's renminbi looks like a safe haven. Thanks to a savings-driven economy, China's consumer price inflation remained very low, when those of the western alliance soared.
