What deflation?

Quote from businessstaxes:

market is a manipulated scam

it's more rigged than penny pinksheet stock.

they had to print euros monet to lend to Greek.

she bought junk bonds pushed by her broker.

worthless junk bonds cdo which were levered is what bankrupted the banks.

goldman sachs crime syndicate was pushing that sh##t to the public. these guys are worse than heroin pushers.

You certainly don't belong on a trading forum.
 
In spite of a few depressed sectors (housing, automobiles, banking --whatever) the U.S. is currently experiencing around 4% inflation based on the CPI. (For the real numbers see shadowstats.com --John Williams website)..

We have recently, and briefly, experienced inflation approaching 8% and are around 4% at present. Real unemployment based on the old way of computing this figure is running a little over 20%.

Considering that we are in the midst of a severe recession, I find this rather startling (not the unemployment figure, but the CPI!)

Volcker says he is not worried about deflation, but is concerned that the Fed may be sowing the seeds for future inflation. I have to agree. Those folks buying gold @ $1300 must certainly agree!
