Bill, next year, CPI will begin to compare apples to apples...that alone will give it an upward bias. unless of course they tinker with it AGAIN. anyway, the global printathon suggests that inflation should revive markedly. so far it's mostly confined to paper assets and real estate, but that could change quickly.
only a stock market crash would dramatically reduce the likelihood of inflation flaring up, due to the massive amount of credit in the system. a crash would lead to a deflationary collapse, but i trust the world's governments will try to print their way out of that. it's really a tough call, but i'm pretty sure SOMETHING will get out of hand...the economic imbalances that have piled up are just too big and too many by now. only so many balls can be juggled at the same time...

regards,
