Has there ever been a time when a country at war has experienced deflation/depression during the war?? I thought war was inflationary. We are at war apparently, and will be so for a long time. In fact the war will likely be expanded. Doesn't this mean we should look out for a long long inflationary period? How would this affect stocks? Also, foreigners holding our increasingly lower value dollars may wish to buy up American assets including real estate and companies/stocks that actually have assets/resources (buildings, machines, actual products, coal/dirt/wood etc.) You know, trade paper dollars for real stuff. Can Bernanke hold interest rates where they are for now and just pump in the mega billions via the electronic printing press like he did a week ago and do it quietly?? Where on the Fed Reserve of NY web site can one find how many billions of dollars they "print" and pump into the system? It would be nice to keep track of it.
