Heinz, I'd like to follow up on our discussion this morning. What makes you think that a deflationary crack-up lies ahead? Personal savings is at an all-time low. Also, net household investment in corporate equity has been negative since 1996. Savings deposits have been declining since late 1998 and now retail money assets are declining - for the first time since the last recession in the early 90s. I am perplexed as to how one might evaluate the U.S. economy. Americans (I hate the term 'consumer') are behaving as they did during periods of high inflation, as if the real time value of money were in fact negative.
