30 Years of Inflation Coming, But "Deflation Scare" Not Over Yet, Cycle Maven Says

Intuitive improvisation is the essense of genius

Sounds terribly true

At least he has the currencies right for sure. If we would look back at the results oc currency debasements over the last few thousand years, the results are always the same. The manipulors play for a while but the day of reckoning always comes. The wise man said, "The definition of stupidity is when something has been tried before, and it is tried again, hoping for a different result". Have we tried again? Uncle Davie

Skeptical reasoning as 30 yrs is long time !

Short term deflation followed by long term inflation presents a potentially wonderful opportunity for those not weighed down by debt and thus able to act quickly and with conviction.

Heck, I just read a couple articles over the weekend where economists were predicting the recovering beginning to show its strength 4Q2009 and more in 1Q2010. Of course, they really could not produce evidence as to why; they could not explain how mortgage rates were high; they could not explain why unemployment is going to exceed 10% by year end; they could not explain how more foreclosures are rising; they could not explain why .... Golly, they couldn't explain anything other than the economy was going to recover..... hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

IMF is sitting on tons of gold so be careful with holding it

He sure is at the other end of the spectrum on the dollar vs Jim Sinclair. My bet is on Sinclair.

Crude oil may be the international "currency" of choice for the future. Use dips to horde.

the man is rite on! support your town.......shop around!

Deflation would be a good thing. Prices need to come back down to affordable levels. People can't afford $5 gas or million dollar beach houses anymore. $1 a gallon gas sounds more like reality. They should stop trying to prop up prices and let them fall for a change. That would help the average person. Back in 1930, the farmers set up roadblocks to cut off the supply of crops in an attempt to keep prices up. Today, it's being done again. It wasn't a good idea then and it isn't one now.

One of the Yahoo economic headlines this morning states that oil is falling today because faith in the reviving economy is fading. The pity is that Wall Street now presents wild speculation as part of a thriving economy.

A lot of the people arguing that the economy is going to recover are people whose own jobs depend on the economy recovering soon: politicians, economists, stock brokers, insurance executives, CEO's of leading companies.... Wishful thinking is guiding their vision. I don't see inflation being the problem. The Fed is throwing a huge amount of money into the black hole of deflation. What happens to matter when it gets thrown into a black hole. It disintegrates. We are going to see all asset classes (except perhaps gold and silver) decline in value all over the world. Once the deflation starts, the only thing that can stop it is....time. The black hole will consume matter for ever until the clock goes off (2019 by my reckoning), then it will transform into a white hole and begin spitting matter out again. We're all going to have to wait. Re-expansion is a long way off.

Suzy says...There is only so much gold in the world, you can't cut a tree and make more gold. BUT, the Chinese, Japanese, Germans, Australians, British, Spanish, GCC countries, etc...Have been printing money out of thin air....Nothing backing all this money except your faith. If we all have $100 dollar bills, the shop keeper will raise the price to $100.

Deflation, followed by Inflation. Yeah, no kidding! Basic principle of fluctuation. 30 years of inflation? Based on what? Home prices? Homes are more affordable now than before, so no sense there. And with people able to afford homes more easily, no need to increase workers' pay, so no need to increase consumer prices ... and then if social medicine becomes reality, we will definitely see some interesting 'accounting practices' occur for a while there, but still no reason for inflation. So I can only guess the reasoning behind the inflation forecast, is the basic fluctuation principle ... no genius insight needed for that!
