From Haim: mish, the PPI when published will show a substantial rise this will scare the markets and force the FED to raise rates. From Mish Dont be absurd. Really. Focus on jobs not the PPI. A boom CAN NOT LAST without jobs. Furthermore China is SLOWING. That takes time to work thru. Finally, energy prices are like a TAX. Very unproductive, quite recessionary. Mish

PPI will cause Fed to reduce monetary expansion which will slow the economy even more this course is most consistent with their deluded notion that the US Economy is indeed in expansion I suppose if a fat slob grows a third buttock, he is expanding !!! the Fed is caught between a rock and a hard place the intervening space is getting tighter by the week no way out next up... take your pick which Fed action will be their next mistake? - raise FedFunds target rate - reduce monetary expansion thru monetization - increase bank reserve ratios - end bullying of foreign central banks I would hate to be Greenspasm now if he had any brains, he would issue a statement about plans by the Fed and Trez to move to a gold-backed dollar later in the decade / jim
