Wayne, You are right, except that we are not experiencing 10.8% annual deflation, any more than we were experiencing the 13.2% annual inflation that was reported in February. I do feel that we are heading in the direction of deflation, and that the (so far non-) recession will eventually show up in the numbers. But we're not there yet. The core rate was up at a comfortable .2%.

Gee, and Greenspan printing out 9% more cash over the past year is obviously deflationary, right?

federalreserve.gov

Just like those idiots on the message boards that try to put a bullish spin on a secondary offering that "they are increasing the float for institutions to pick up more shares".. total and absolute HOGWASH.

Anytime a company prints out more shares, they are reducing your stake in that company. Anytime the government prints out more cash, they are reducing the power of your money.

(sorry for the aggressive tone of this message Wayne, nothing against you personally, just that I'm rather tired of hearing CPI and PPI statistics which resemble a total 'fictionary' universe).
