Only have just a moment....but wanted to chime in here......
 
IF NO RAPTURE in 2012
 
US Dollar:
No Dollar collapse......I said this 1 year ago and before, as well.
Not even a BASKET OF CURRENCIES to replace the US Dollar.
When the world RUNS for safety...they still run to the US Dollar.
US Dollar INCREASED in value relative to the Euro in 2011, due to Europe's problems.
(I mostly watch the value of the US Dollar to the euro)
 
US Stock Market
CONTINUED VOLATILITY...
by 12/31/2012.....?????  UP? DOWN?  I won't make that call....just MORE Volatilty.
I'll let all the other talking heads make that call....they certainly got it WRONG in 2012
However....the current strength of the US stock market puzzles me.
It would be truly INCREDIBLE if the US stock market pushed UP, toward all time highs.
 
WHAT.......all the problems of the past year have gone away?????   I don't think so.....
Thus....as the old problems come back to haunt us, greater VOLATILITY should be certain.
 
Europe
Unless  someone thinks they are on the verge of FIXING their huge problems, (I don't) continued problems.
 
Oh, and Interest Rates....
Continued LOW rates.....you can't raise rates in this economy, or you will KILL any chance of a recovery....been saying that for the last 5 years.  So far, still true.
 
 
IF THE RAPTURE HAPPENS.....BY 9/17/2012...
 
ALL BETS ARE OFF:
 
US Dollar:  Collapses......or, incredibly just might strenghten...as the world's "only dependable" currency?  Naw........too many people would be GONE.
 
US MARKETS...and GLOBAL Markets....   Total collapse
 
ALL THE DOMINOES ARE LINED UP.......unless we are WRONG about the nearness of the hour for the Rapture...... the problems of the world are certainly GREATER now than a year ago...and NOTHING has been fixed....NOTHING!!
 
TICK TOCK.......I think all of the problems in 2011 will come back to be even BIGGER Problems in 2012.....  I've lost my optimism that man can fix the current problems...
You could actually have a STOCK MARKET RALLY heading into, and up to, the Rapture..maybe.
 

And, and, and....
 
ISRAEL (or the US) just HAS TO GO AFTER IRAN.......IN 2012.....  YES?
 
TICK TOCK
YFIC,
Randy
 
PS....GO FIGURE.....the US stock market is up over 200 points on the first day of the trading year for 2012!!!!!!!!  GO FIGURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Running fast on this write up........have a great New year!  It is an amazing time to be a Christian and to be watching Bible prophesy being revealed before our eyes...year after year!!!!!
