Stagflation Dilemna

[ByLoSellHi]

A slowing economy domestically, coupled with inflationary pressures on globally consumed commodities as well as some increase in labor costs that slowing productivity won't be able to resolve.

Stagflation. The very real threat of it looms large right now.

I'd love 14% treasuries if the stock market is going to be flat or decline.

I'm all in!

He built his academic career on publishing a prominent thesis about the origins of The Great Depression, and the deflationary period that followed.
