The deflationary forces aren't spurring the economy, right now they are spurring hard assets. It's fun when the "inflation" is in stocks and housing. Not so fun when it's in one's gas tank.

The deflationary forces began in earnest in 1998 and since then we ebb and flow between inflation and deflation, all the while getting poorer.

At some point the gig will be up for good. I suspect when the Fed has lost a handle on the yield curve. 2's/10's are pretty wide right now, ensuring a nice sub-par commodities driven expansion <g>.

Banks won't be lending anytime soon as they just began increasing standards last fall.

We can call it inflation, deflation, stagflation...who cares?

Just own gold...gold stocks for now.
