Why anyone who has even the slightest grasp of basic mathematics would be concerned with a 9% inflation that followed an 80% deflation, is beyond my comprehension. Let's see- You start out with 100K in assets.. they deflate to 20K in 2 yrs.... then inflate to 21.8K in the 3rd yr. Yes, I'm really concerned about that inflation in the 3rd year. ROTFL GDP still positive I see. Let the EOM bull trap commence!

>> considering that Technicolor went from $88.50 to .63 cents or that RCA went from parabolic heights to Internet lows or New York Central went from $237.00 to $9.00 or even that ultra blue chip Dupont crashed from $58 to $5.00...Homestake had a pretty nice positive return. Timeframes are from 1929 to 1932 for the above examples. << true. mostly because homestake hadn't performed nearly as well as those other companies during the 20's. we see the same story today. sectors that have performed poorly in recent years are outperforming the high-fliers of the late 90's. even so, homestake was pretty much flat from mid-1929 to mid-1931.
