Recent tensions with Iran have pushed up oil above $100 a barrel, and commentators warn of much bigger price increases to come. If oil does go [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=moneyland.time.com&#038;blog=7993914&#038;post=29800&#038;subd=timecheapskate&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you asked most investors about 2011, they would probably tell you that it was a year of extreme economic uncertainty, marked by fears of recession and a currency crisis in Europe. Risks were high and stock prices were volatile. That’s perfectly true if you look at day-to-day swings. But look at the year in [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=moneyland.time.com&#038;blog=7993914&#038;post=29394&#038;subd=timecheapskate&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

As a result, rating agencies have warned that the U.S. credit rating is [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=moneyland.time.com&#038;blog=7993914&#038;post=29036&#038;subd=timecheapskate&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Certainly, they were consistently late in identifying imminent defaults and bankruptcies a few years ago, during the banking and mortgage-lending crisis. Yet European countries – especially France – are obsessing about possible downgrades for their credit ratings.
