Yes, and I am a gold bug too -g- The blue line in that graph is stats without the latest revision: shadowstats.com The Yellow line is the revision Bernanke wants to implement now to lower the stats even further. Lies about inflation are a symptom of a country falling into chronic inflation/hyperinflation. M3 in that first graph is the measure of broad money supply growth, which also accounts for real inflation. Mysteriously, that measure was discontinued by the Fed on March, 23, 2006. 11% is extremely high growth. shadowstats.com The third graph (blue line) is real inflation statistics without all revisions. According to that graph, US inflation is now around 10%, which is in serious "chronic inflation" zone. The bond yields at 5% are, of course, much lower. The second graph is real GDP growth, taking inflation into account.
