Ron,
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.

Still not getting it. Inflation will cause higher real interest rates. Won't that raise the cost of doing business- raising capital, buying raw materials etc. How will companies be able to get higher returns/profits in that environment if the consumer who is already strapped with high debt is forced to pay higher interest rates. I just don't see how pricing power would improve
