PLease explain to us all how inflation is going to usher in the bull market you speak of AG has already explained how inflation is crucial for the economy. This is contrary to what is the norm right now but was not always the case. During the later 1950’s inflation boded well for stocks. This market has been played with or manipulated so much that no one has a clue where the balance of deflationary or inflationary powers lies. The FED in trying to make it better has made it worse. Also this manipulation has disallowed the market to know where the appropriate rate of interest should be. The lemmings follow the FED lead as usual. As soon as the FED saw us heading toward depression junk status they started to artificially pump. This is why gold has reacted the way it has and why rates have continued down through similar targeting. This also hurt pricing power on all companies including technology. IT spend got killed due to this manipulation. Now because of the FED inflation is something that cannot be stopped but must happen. Stock prices will also rise due to the higher returns/profits. Eventually the FED will have to raise rates. When this happens which could be one – five years, then I will reassess whether or not I am still bullish. Ron Dior
