Falling asset prices, eh? You may want to check the title of this thread. As for QE, the notion that it is not inflationary is a contradiction in terms. Have a look at when QE was first announced in the US (and indeed the UK) and then have a look at a chart of stock and commodities prices.

I laugh at the notion of deflation here in the UK. Our beloved Bank of England has just embarked on a money printing spree to the tune of £75 billion. Prices as measured by the govt's own index are rising at 5.5% pa. In reality, it's more like 7-8% a year. Anyone who thinks there is going to be...

What deflation?

I'm in no hurry to sell :cool: . Still, i hear number of redundancies from the City are climbing, which tends to put a brake on property price appreciation here. Also, if the financial transactions tax proposed in Europe, but fiercely resisted by us, comes to pass, then prices here would...

Isn't that one of the issues, that since your insurance or Medicare is going to pay, there is a strong incentive for health care providers to recommend unnecessary treatments and drugs?

Hmmm, his over priced products are liked by a lot of people though, who were and are still prepared to pay the "over priced" price to own them. And Jobs is dead, so he isn't laughing. When you die, you die, you don't laugh at anybody afterwards.
