DEFLATION. November stats confirm primary trend has pivoted.

<On Nov. 1, the Bureau of Economic Analysis at the Department of Commerce released third-quarter
personal consumption expenditure data — a more sophisticated version of the consumer price index —
and for the first time since 1954, it fell…0.4% on an annualized basis. Prices actually went down.

Then last Thursday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics at the Department of Labor released October import
prices — down 2.4%.

Then last Friday, the same folks released the October producer price index — down 1.6%, the largest
drop in history.>

The above article also shows many pundits were years TOO early with their deflation warnings. Key with any major trend change is to recognize it as soon AFTER it begins as possible. Timing, timing, timing.....

The current ST victory celebration is providing good entry and add opportunities in 8 - 8.75% yielding LT medium grade fixed income securities. I'm a little conservative for junk.<g>
