I like Trader Mark's stuff a lot, and deflation could be the risk near-term. But I think it will continue to serve as an excuse for central bankers to inflate/devalue/ease. Eventually we'll hit a point where inflation does start, but the economy will probably still suck. Will they stop easing? I don't think so. Raising taxes and slashing spending would cause riots. Who knows, this run could last another year, maybe 3-4? But those fundamentals always show their ugly face eventually... Thanks for the link, good stuff Shishir.

And just the result of that imbalance results in inflation as they by definition over-react to deflationary pressures.
