Fed Inflation Barometer Tumbles To Lowest Since 2008

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Despite The Fed's Jim Bullard proclaiming last week that inflation expectations had rebounded (by which we assumed he meant the Dow), 5-year forward 5-year inflation expectations just dropped in the US to the lowest since 2008. The rest of the world is no better. In spite of promised and delivered policies Japanese and European inflation expectations are also near multi-year (if not all-time) lows... which must mean only one thing - we need moar money printing.

Inflation expectations falling everywhere... (the 5Y5Y fwd inflation breakevens are often cited as The Fed's preferred market indication of inflation expectations)

 

So it must the Dow that Bullard is watching...

No. It doesn't mean anyone needs to print anymore money. This is a public opinion survey. The mass mind has spoken. it is always wrong. Always. hedge accordingly. The Inlfation Numbers will be part of every evening news cast by this time next year; as t hey were in 1977.  The present is not t he past and the future is not the present. The attention span of modern citizens is amazing; Next year you can laugh at me if I'm wrong.

Damned deflation.  I hate it when my dollars start buying more stuff.

I really wish gas prices would go back up.  I love paying more to get to work, so I can make more money, so I can pay more to get to work, so I can make more money, so I can pay more to get to work, so I can make more money, so I can pay more to get to work.

I know right?  I went to the store yesterday and I got half a carts worth of groceries for a mere $200.  They are practically giving stuff away!

The only "deflation" taking place in USSA is that of living standards of 95% of the population.

They're going to force people into debt just to buy toilet paper.

Well waddya know, broke people can't afford to pay more for shit. Much of it they don't need anyway... Banker nightmare, the proles are broke, burned out and devoid of hope. Not the type of folks you can rely on to maintain your rentier debtor state.

Just like the schoolyard bully ( that was me once but with mitigating circumstances ) the more shit you allow him to get away with the more frightening the assaults become.

Start pulling cash from TBTJ banks.   3-5% is a good target.   Let them feel the squeeze for a change...  FRB is inherently vulnerable and these crooks need to be reminded that they too can be called.

Inflation going down but Gold going up ... things could get real interesting. If Gold shows that it can weather deflation when QEx starts we will see Gold approach it's true value.

By removing everything from the items in the 'inflation basket,' we can reach zero inflation!

Make it so, Minion.
