Good one Spain, let the evil smokers take the pain. Here is a better idea... since Spain is one siesta away from a coma, come around 2pm why don’t you go around waking everyone up so they can do a decent days work. .
Tyler, inflation is really out of control in China right now, and ZH should run more stories on the topic. For the first time since the 2008 blowup, the PBOC is really panicked.
There is a very slight line between high inflation and hyperinflation - once it's crossed, there is no turning back.
