'His point is not hard to get: debt collapse = decrease of money supply =deflation. It seems the reality of global economy is more complicated than that. I read his blogs, of course. However, it is hard to agree that debt collapse will necessarily cause dollar appreciation, especially with high degree of borrowing from foreigners. It is also not easy for me to eat T-bond rally, since the US government is in debt up to its ears. The debt crisis will just spread to US government paper, like everything else. It's not immune from the slump' Yeah I had to go back and reread Ravi Batra many times the past few years to make sure there was nothing I missed.. You summed it up well.. The story going forward might be how our main trading partners react, how their economies and housing bubbles hold up to the weakening clownbuck and the misallocation of capital by our government.. Everyone in a suit on the boob tube says 70's stagflation can't return but these are the same folks who said don't worry supbrime is contained 18 months ago..
