Yep, I hear it from friends and family that I complain to about the markets. "Why don't you just get OUT?" Well, ya can't. You have to hold something, even if it's cash. And there is a credible scenario under which cash gets destroyed. I guess the real equivalent of "just get out" would be extreme diversification - bet half on the inflationary scenario and half on the deflationary scenario. If it explodes either direction, you win. I'd like to think that it's a slow enough process that I can see the trend appearing. Right now, deflation still appears to rule the day, hence my focus on shorting stocks. If anybody ever sees ANYTHING that makes it appear that inflation is showing up, please let me know, but all I see is the fuel, with no spark. `BC
