    Can't see where inflation let alone hyperinflation is going to come from. Wages are being forced lower, more globalisation to cheap countries, immigration will ensure continued fall in pay.

    All the funny money is simply mopping up the massive right downs at the banks on their gambling debts.

    The future is hyper deflation of pay combined with hyper inflation of assets (property and stock markets).

      Nothing is certain. I still like silver whichever way it goes.
      I'm a smug bastard.

        The threat depends on how central banks react to deflationary pressures in the credit supply; what they're currently doing isn't working as they had expected.

          And where does the money that made up that unpaid debt (which the funny ones mops up) go, and continue (due to the funny money sponsoring such behaviour) to go?

          "simply mopping up the massive write-downs" is ignoring half of the equation.

                  Funny, but it actually does have some good articles on there along with the crap. Better signal to noise ratio than most websites and magazines commenting on this stuff.

                    How unlike zero hedge to be pessimistic.

                    The Fed will start firing those helicopters soon.

                      Schiff can be a bit over the top, but when all the Fed can do is spin one or two particular reports, ignoring all the rest showing problems in the economy, I can't really blame him.
