    This is bound to impact on all IO producers.

    China's deflation fears increase as CPI pace slows
    http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/business/story/0,28124,24785509-5017997,00.html

    Quoting:

    "The latest data came a day after China revealed exports fell for the first time in more than seven years in November while imports dropped sharply.

    The worse-than-expected trade figures came after other data yesterday pointed to the potential for deflation and a housing bust in the world's fourth-largest economy."

    A "Housing Bust" will negatively impact the demand for IO & the price of IO come april '09. Could we be looking at a worse case scenario of 50+% reduction in the price of IO?

    Just some food for thought.

    Regards,
    Pandelis
