Hi Joan,

I think you are correct. Up till now, with such high employment, we should have been experiencing inflationary pressures. But, as has been pointed out eleswhere, we have been fortunate enough to be "importing deflation from asia". Problem is, water seeks it's own level. We will reach a global equlibrium on inflation/deflation and let us hope that balance is just at the "disinflation", not deflation point. I am concerned that this "rosey" scenario will not be the case.

Steve

Joan,

"My recollection of history is deflation spreads. The markets may not drive ours but the economics may."

Yeah I agree with that... like all the spice companies now are getting their spices at lower cost because of the devaluation of the currencies!

Ooops, I guess I wasn't supposed to look at THAT side of the equation!

Regards,

Bill
