Also ist "Inflation tatsächlich well contained" ??

Ist "Inflation not a problem"
?

Ich denke, Inflation ist zur Zeit noch kein Problem, zu mindestens nicht so Im Bewußtsein der Anleger, könnte aber sein daß das sich demnächst ändert.

Meinungen ? Gute CPI/PPI Charts? Gute Analysen?

Wer kann was qualifiziertes dazu sagen und "how do i make money of it" ?

From Pinches and Paradox
to Bear Raids and Goldilocks

So there you have it folks, aging computers being blamed for PPI not being reported in a timely fashion on numerous occasions throughout `04 and apparently the fix for the problem rested in the procurement of new penpad computers for the folks who tabulate CPI?

What I see occurring here right before our eyes amounts to brazen ‘economic revisionism’ or the reworking of benchmark yardsticks of historic value. I would suggest that economic revisionism has been elevated to a ‘high art form’ at the Fed, Treasury and the BLS. These people practice their craft ever so incrementally and with cunning – beginning with seasonal adjustments to reporting numbers, then factoring in substitution, hedonic and quality adjustments and finally – once all the lines delineating reality are sufficiently blurred – they simply move the uprights back 25 yards whilst telling the blindfolded place kicker he has a simple ’chip shot’ from the 20-yard line.

None of this happens by accident. I would contend this is all part and parcel of a decaying fiat monetary system whose perpetuation mandates usurping inflation by its very definition. There is no conundrum on interest rates. Long term interest rates have been engineered down and remain low to induce credit expansion and consumption expenditure – period. Without it, the fiat system dies. Couple unnaturally cheap credit with a globalist mentality and you end up with exactly what we have achieved – zero savings and investment, plenty of outsourcing, dislocations and asset bubbles, a hollowed out manufacturing base and debt burdened and compromised middle class.
In recent weeks, such luminaries as Warren Buffett, Robert Rubin, Paul Volcker and Stephen Roach have all – to varying degrees – fired warning shots humming a similar tune.



Interest rates, inflation and the price of gold are co-related and interdependent. This is why I write about gold and the suppression of its price. A rising gold price would make a mockery of nascent claims that inflation is low.
It would also expose many of these false claims as deceptions. Unfortunately and shamefully, monetary officials prefer to conduct their carnie act, violating all of us, cloaked in double speak and secrecy behind drawn curtains.

This ‘creeping repositioning’ of the CPI [outlined above] relative to the PPI has the same aroma as the recent recalibration of the CRB Index. What I do know for a fact is the BLS has been pumping out reports for a number of years suggesting inflation is tame or non existent.
Empirically, I used to fill the gas tank of my car for less than 40 bucks two years ago and today it costs a cool 50. And I live in Canada – a country whose currency has risen appreciably against the U.S. dollar – oil’s settlement currency. I don’t really want to go off on a rant about the increased cost of food, insurance, tuition, cable tv, property tax, new homes, professional fees, prescription drugs and anything else associated with health care.
Amazingly, the bulk of pundits and monetary officials getting airplay in the main stream media insist we’re living in a ‘Goldilocks’ economy.

"For the week ended July 4, M-3, the broad US money supply, declined by $13 billion.
That ends the news. No, wait, there`s more -- core inflation (food and energy) rose just 0.1% last month. The government`s inflation statistics have become the laughing stock of the economic world, not that anyone gives a damn about the government`s statistics anymore."(Richard Russell )
