Maybe HeliBen is going to use the cover provided by hot-money repatriation from emerging markets to the dollar to drive toward ZIRP. Why not - worked so well for Japan...<s> `BC

they need closer to 2% to have any impact it's becoming obvious. By then people will be spooked and will stop spending. Maybe that's why some are thinking price deflation might be coming, not out of fundamentals but price cutting for (vendor) survival. This has nothing to do with monetary inflation which is beyond being out of control. I wonder if Bernanke's plan is to cause excess supply of dollars to evaporate by letting the markets crash. Don't know that much about it but if that's ridiculous someone please explain why so I can get that crazy idea out of my head.
