<<"Don't believe in DEFLATION folks? When it happens, everyone on this board better be investing in Mish's fund.">>>> I have an open mind on this..... I suggest we post items or things that are going down or deflating in price on the board here....... ........kind of like a "reality check" to see if deflation actually exists in the real world?? Of course feel free to post things that are going up or inflating in price..... I'll start by saying my homeowner insurance is way up this year.....my car insurance is up. My property taxes are way up. My utility bills are up. Gasoline and food costs are way up. Price deflation(??)....maybe(?) my house value has gone down? C'mon you guys ...help me out here. There must be some deflation somewhere out there. Let's take a realistic look at this!

A precursor of an event does not equal the event.

I agree.Mish got it right.There go commodities and the developing world.Sold all my EWZ yesterday.Brazil will do better than most as their interest rates will go down and finacials and real estate will do OK.Problem is commodities will fall and Real will fall 20-30%.When it is time to get back in Brazil BBD and UBB will be a better bet than EWZ
