PERFECT STORM IN THE ECONOMY

Weathermen look at the convergence of climatic conditions (wind, precipitation, etc) to forecast storms. Around the equator, there is the intertropical convergence zone. What we have today is an inter-economic convergence zone covering the whole world: the subprime crisis, rising oil & food prices, the global economy at a standstill, unemployment. An economic Perfect Storm is in the horizon.
What are you doing (what can you do) to weather the economic Perfect Storm?
