Guys: Where is this touted "deflation" 4 years and running on this thread: Lets see: Natural gas up 70% Gasoline up 70% Food going up Electricity going up Medical Pricing and Insurance Going up Interest rates going up Cell phone & communication even Entertainment stagnant to increasing College tuition and education going up Transportation costs (ie shipping etc) all higher . . Oh wait I forgot electronics are going down . . Whoopee affects a whopping 5% or less of most peoples budget . . . . Lets face it near term its inflation or stagflation. either way, the dollar buys less not more . . . The blah blah arguements about the deflationary aspects of the internet have greatly overestimated its productivity. . This ongoing debate reminds me of stopped watch. Eventually it has the right time, but you lose a lot in the interim. . . That said, I am in a quandary as to how to profit from the existing and upcoming inflationary cycle . . . Any thoughts other then shorting the long bond which my mortgage effectively does . . . .
