hi Heinz,

so in simple terms is it sort of as though the stock market contraction of last year precludes any chance of hyperinflation?

we speak of al and his 'printing presses' here on this thread. is it actually though that most of the new money is 'electronic' and is simply consumed by the various markets, leaving only debt on the books?

in other words, is all of this new money going into those black holes, so there is no way it will ever reach the proverbial wheelbarrows for buying bread?

now if the stock market had actually inflated last year and if it were still doing that on an ongoing basis, would the chance for hyperinflation still be there? to me it seems as though the deflation in assets is precluding hyperinflation in other areas.

i'm trying to compress the main of your detailed reply into a simple idea. perhaps i am missing the point.

fwiw
andy
