In the long run it is far easier to pay down Fed debt by hyper inflating(since debt instruments are mostly fixed rated). Growth is a concern yes,but it will only be abated by aleviating the budget deficit in the longer run by inflating the economy at incremental rates. Todays debt levels will inevitably look pale to tomorrows inflationary growth. The Fed will cut back(slash budgets-pity the next President) as well the corporate croons and the consumer will have no choice but to play along and suffer the most;just like the mid to late '70's. Stocks are cooked! Get Short or sell and or buy bonds in tier steps and hedge with commodities if so inclined. But who really knows... bloomberg.com and if that is not enough... bloomberg.com
