Where is the deflationary spiral??

Quote from Traden4Alpha:

This chart is JUNK! First, the use of a linear scale intentionally misleads. Redo this chart with a logarithmic scale and you will see that the 1913-1920 period was the worst inflationary period in the data set. And that the deflationary spiral of the Great Depression lags the stock market crash by a year. Second, the chart doesn't even show the period of concern, which starts in somewhere in between mid-2007 to mid-2008. Third, the chart doesn't even measure the right variable for assessing deflation which would be asset prices more so than consumer prices.

The core CPI hasn;t dipped even recently..lol
 
So I'm right..no deflation, but no inflation either. Perfect economic equilibrium. Hopefully, inflation will begin to rise again, but only modestly.

What do you mean? The monthly CPI declined in Oct, Nov and Dec 2008 ( http://www.bls.gov/news.release/cpi.nr0.htm ). The Dec 2008 deflation of CPI was the worst since 1954.

But the bigger issue is all the declines in asset prices such as houses and equities which induce the "don't buy now in case it drops further" mentality of deflation.
