abundant information: globalization's irony
In this day and age, we see ironic things like a stock trader in the United States worried about pigs being stolen in China.
There was "pignapping" in China, Kosovo declared its independence and the U.S. government is working on putting more money in the pockets of overspending Americans. News like this and more is readily available via the internet. Sometimes the funniest headline can be considered as a relevant concern for a trader.
Take for example the "pignapping." Silly as it seems, the surrounding circumstances of the devastating winter in China and the falling supplies of pork can cause concern. The chinese are known to have a ravenous appetite for pork, some even use it synonymously with the general word, "meat". Depserate acts like a pignapping can give us an idea of how bad its getting and contribute to other factors to justify a conclusion that inflation in China is getting to be a real problem.
