A new inflationary era might be on the way, and if it is, markets have got things completely wrong, says jmackin2

Investors are convinced that inflation will remain subdued, even as central banks and governments make unprecedented stimulus commonplace. They are assuming the same thing will happen now as happened after 2009, when easy money failed to push up consumer prices.

But politics has changed significantly in the past decade, and, especially in Europe, governments have found a new way to create money without central-bank help. A new inflationary era might be on the way, and if it is, the markets have got it completely wrong.

jmackin2 I’m not quite sure how Bureau of Labor stats CPI is so low. Food has def gone up (published). But airline travel and household goods (not rly up) makes me wonder. Are they adjusting for fewer long-distance flights/the actual bidding price of toilet paper/paper towels/etc?

jmackin2 Sell stonks Buy Bitcorn

jmackin2 Markets didn't have things completely wrong... they were never an indicator of any economy.. they're are casinos. It's the media that have got things wrong for assuming the markets are economic indicators.

jmackin2 It’s already here

jmackin2 The trillions in debt being created to prop the market works out only if future dollars are cheap. The first treasury auction that doesn’t sell out the increasing risk, artificially low return bills will be the sign.

jmackin2 when the chinese withdraw from swift, that's when you'll get inflation.

jmackin2 Very interesting to see if inflation will come, but at least it will not come within a few months, i think

jmackin2 So far Fed monetary inflation is only inflating asset markets. If it starts inflating consumer prices, we're doomed.

jmackin2 Lol, deflation is more likely than inflation in the short-term.

jmackin2 Dnt doubt

jmackin2 didn’t rent, healthcare, school already inflate?

jmackin2 Something bad might happen, and if it does, it means that the indicators are 100% wrong!

jmackin2 The correction will be worse then ever in history.

jmackin2 Lol
