One thing i wonder, will the Feds still maintain that inflation is nonexistent if oil goes to 150 ?

It is important to understand that the price of oil has nothing to do with inflation. (If you prefer, very little to do with inflation).

There was reckless and mammoth printing by the FED in the mid to late 90's and oil fell as did gold. Oil fell although there was real mammoth inflation.

Now oil is rising because of peak oil even though the FED for a year of so has laid off the gas.

Supply disruptions and peak oil are NOT inflation.
