LK,
"have you seen the yield curve today? That's a market signal for the Fed to ease."
Yes, but the Fed is still full of hearty inflation fighters!

I can't say I understand why, except that the last battle is always freshest in mind, and none of us (except tech investors, of course) have much experience with deflation. But to my undoubtedly naive mind, at least, 5% deflation is worse--much worse--than 5%--or even 10%--inflation. Harder to stop, and the cure is inflationary anyway.
