I don’t see it ..the fed is way to anti deflation.....never fight the fed What makes you thinks the Fed has any power to do anything about it...anymore than the central bank of Japan has? They've been seriously anti deflation for almost 15 years and still haven't been able to hit targets. I really ...

I'm just waiting for the deflationary story to return...the financial media is fixated on inflation...but the most knowledgeable names I have heard of late are in the deflationary crowd. Lacy Hunt and Jeff Snider come to mind but there are others. I wouldn't be surprised to see long bonds test previ...

We need to get a QE thread started but from what I understand it's not going to to anything for inflation....just like it didnt in Japan for the last 30 years. Deficit fueled fiscal stimulus might create short quick pops above trend before dropping back and leaving us further indebted. I'm not sure ...

if i had to structure the pp the way i see the odds , i would split the tlt budget in half and put the other half in ief . that would tone tlt down a bit since deflation does not have the same odds as inflation in my limited economic mind . It's amazing though how profoundly wrong the market has be...

In the inflation thread of the bonds topic I posted a very interesting analysis of QE. I seem to be running across quite a number of sound minds in the deflationary camp. One could argue that the asset inflation we have seen is truly a self fulfilling prophecy. It's amazing how well that narrative h...

Strong opening...yields are definitely signaling something

Nudging this back on topic..great interview and great insights into QE and Fed impotence

The concentration of wealth and power in the hands of the corporate class and the ways they abuse and eliminate labor, control government, and destroy the working and middle classes will be impossible to see, Yet grassroots organized workers programs that would exist outside the sphere of governmen...

They will be. Wait until next year.

So what are you waiting for???

I mean, I know these are red states with conservative politicians and all...that might be uncomfortable for a liberal like you...but still

Back to inflation... Hearing from two friends in Toronto area. Houses are over 1 million, and bidding wars. Lake cottages up north are way over 1 million, sometimes 2 million, and bidding wars. I just think this can't end well. It is crazy - I used Zillow, and according to their assessment, my home...

Just noticed it backs up to gerald ford conservation center and gardens....that might be a bit uncomfortable for a liberal like yourself...

All value is subjective as individuals. Bitcoin is trying to be money, so its perceived money-like properties give it monetary value for those looking for such value. Essentially, high price is the point of bitcoin as its trying to become money and the monetizing process is measured in $. Does it g...

We keep rehashing real estate over and over here but no one talks about the hundreds of places in this country where housing hasn't gotten stupid expensive. There are places all over america that are completely affordable. Is there a reason why these places are being ignored? I keep hearing about t...

the pp shows up 1.50% or 40,500 because my equities carried over their gains

So the portfolio as a whole is up 1.5%?

I wasn't aware there was a lyme vaccine...will have to look into that. I wonder if it exists for dogs as well

Let me add...what do you think covid is doing when it invades your cells? It's also injecting it's genetic code into them.

* code developed in a chinese lab

Are you getting your information from Natural News?

I have listened to quite a bit of discussion on mRNA vaccines and this whole "gene alteration" fear is nonsense and a fundamental misunderstanding of how this vaccine tech works.

Just considering the number of vaccines I've had so far...pretty incredible

Polio, measles, mumps, rubella, tetanus, hep A, hep B, tuberculosis, varicella, whooping cough, various flus, smallpox,typhoid...and now covid....

I'm sure I'm leaving some off.

I can feel myself coming online as it alters and reconstructs my dna to become more compliant to my lizard overlords.

Does this level of tinfoil hattery exist in other countries, or is this a uniquely american trait?

Got my first shot today. Pfizer one. So far nothing...not even sore arm. Been reading on how this vaccine developed. The tech behind it is pretty incredible.

Start yer own bob vila thread, guys and gals! Seriously!

So entire portfolio about flat for year then...as gains in stocks offset by losses in bonds. Seems like everything functioning fine....

The later stages of a bubble test ones willpower more than anything else. Up more than 7% in first quarter....we are definitely closing in on euphoria.
