Some globalist salivating for QE or someone with a legitimate premise?

Deflation in the US is pretty uncommon. That tends to be Great Depression type of stuff. Way to go Brandon.

BS

We can’t create paper money at the breakneck speed we are doing on top of nearly incalculable debt and get deflation.

Every other country that has devalued their currency like this has had hyper inflation. It is utter hubris to believe the US is somehow immune to the laws of economics which rule everyone else.

I think the only way we get deflation is a genuine collapse and defaulting on government debt.

Interest rates are not nearly high enough. One thing I’ll give credit to the Russians on is raising rates to 16% to tamp down inflation.

Inflation is going to reignite.

5%
5% is not high when considering the inflation rate.

The Fed is all about stopping Trump.

Maybe. Things never remain static but we tend to think they will.

Savers and prudence should be rewarded. Inflation is the game of the rat race. Deflation would be a welcome goal to achieve. Tech and other advancements is a deflationary part of the market. That is countered by the massive government spending and backstops. The price of goods and services shouldn't be going up year after year.

Deflation is a thing of the past. Now that money is simply digital credits, it can be “printed” and distributed immediately to keep inflation going forever.

Deflation is too few dollars chasing too many goods.
