<< Investors spooked by inflation >>

Wall Street should’ve considered that before supporting Biden’s candidacy. They KNEW he’d be printing dollars by the trillions.

Gas lines, hyperinflation on the horizon, we’re a joke in the international community...

Biden did in 100 days what it took Jimmy Carter to do in 4 years.

[Uncle Miltie]

I price things for a living.

We started our planning for hyperinflation about 2 weeks ago, after quite substantial increases already in January.

Unexpected....except by the millions of Trump voter who said this would happen.

Yep. Frankly, this is why I bought 20 chickens last summer. This is why it was imperative we complete our shop building and get electricity to it. etc.

This is why a lot of us have been preparing for it in incremental ways before the china flu and in big ways after the ludicrous response. The writing is very much on the wall and has been, really, for over a year.

If investors believe inflation is coming or getting worse where are they moving their ‘money’ to?

Do they fear a less valuable dollar? (then they wouldn’t want to hold cash).

Is there a greater fear of a fed interest rate hike in response?

We need to spend more time and focus on climate initiatives and make sure our law enforcement is used against political enemies, not actual terrorists

That part that is kinda scary is this: On economist said that it will take longer to come than a lot of people predict, but once it gets here it will unfold with unbelievable speed. This comes to mind:

Sometimes I wonder if Trump didn’t want to win this one because he didn’t want to be in charge when it hit the fan.

When does Slow Joe put on a sweater and mumble about malaise?

[be-baw]

I know that CPI is Consumer Price Index. What do MoM and YoY stand for?

[j.havenfarm]

Joe’s solution: Spend more money

[9YearLurker]

4.2% my foot.
