Here's the five step process that seems to be repeating over and over again to Global Instability:
1.Boom
2.Stock market crash
3.Economic crisis
4.Currency wars
5.Trade wars
6.War

That description fits 1929-1945, 1999-2003, and 2005-today. So far, we're at stage 5 - trade wars. The American's latest salvo has been to slap enormous tariffs on Swedish and South Korean made washing machines.

As for the controversial step 6, could there really be war? To answer that, you have to ponder just how the six steps follow on from each other.
