Beware Deflation Ahead (Part 2)
Deflation Ahead! No... We are not nuts. Most people are yelling and screaming about inflation. So why are we yelling about deflation? Here's the scoop. We have received our share of hate mail over the past few weeks since we came out with the claim that we may experience deflation by year end. Most of the messages were angry that we changed our mind. Yet, not one person has refuted our claim with any solid argument. Its important to understand this point. Inflation and deflation can exist at the same time. The only difference is your point of view and what you are measuring. However once you understand why we are saying deflation could happen by year end, it will all make sense. Join us this week where we further discuss our thesis on deflation. Its Valentine's day... Send us you love... send us your hate... Just send us something with your thoughts.
