Stagflation is a very challenging combination of conditions, and although quite rare, represents such a challenging environment that fears of it and discussion of it nonetheless often crop up.

Tue, 7 Apr 2009 George Soros, legendary currency trader and chairman of Soros Fund Management, warns about the return of stagflation in the near future when the Federal Reserve is forced to raise interest rates prematurely. "The moment this fear of deflation turns into a fear of inflation, you'll find interest rates rise in the long end which is going to choke off the recovery," Soros says. "If we are successful [in preventing the total collapse of the economy], we are heading from the prospect of deflation to stagflation."

Follow us on TWITTER: twitter.com Like us on FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com Facing severe domestic inflation and an overheating economy, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP ) has tightened money supply and decelerated economic growth. However, continual recession in the eurozone and in the US has hardly hit China's export industry. In 2012, to what situation will China's economy move forward? Will it achieve a soft landing? The issues arouse public concerns. Due to weak exports and soaring production costs, numerous business failures of small and medium enterprises have emerged in China. Surviving companies now face a year-end plight, such as loan repayment, salary payment, paying off debts to suppliers. As The Voice of America pointed out, difficult loaning, increased production costs, all hit China's small and medium businesses hard. Some of them might find it difficult to get through the coming Chinese New Year. China's export faces hardship owing to the sharp drop in external demand. As the most important driver for domestic demand, China's property industry is currently in a recession, too. According to the UK's Financial Times Chinese edition reports, China's tidal wave of cut housing prices has moved forward to second-tier and third-tier cities, from first-tier cities. In Erdos city, Inner Mongolia, housing prices plunged by 50%-70%, with massive numbers of houses unoccupied. The city has become a "ghost town". In 2012, will China's economy achieve a soft landing <b>...</b>

Follow us on TWITTER: twitter.com Like us on FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com China's manufacturing is shrinking now. According to the latest Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) announced by HSBC, China's manufacturing activities fell to its lowest point in 32 months. Specifically, export orders appeared to be decreasing as well, which is an apparent signal for the shrinkage. Experts pointed out that the manufacturing sector is the pillar industry of China, thus its shrinkage is a critical alarm to the whole country's economy. The Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) is a globally-used indicator of macroeconomics. On Nov 23, HSBC announced a preview of China's November PMI. The index appeared to fall from last month's 51 to 48, which is its lowest point since March in 2009. What's more, 48 is already in the interval indicating shrinking manufacturing. PMI is a composite indicator reflecting manufacturing activity, which is calculated by several indicators for new orders, production, employment, stocks and logistics. A number over 50 indicates a growing manufacturing activity, otherwise a declining one. Economics professor at The City College of New York, Chen Zhifei, told NTDTV that China's manufacturing was still growing last year with increasing exports; however, in the recent three months, export orders continuously dropped and the manufacturing quickly turned to a shrinking trend, which made him believe that China is undertaking an economic hard landing.

How To Go To Heaven: www.jesus-is-savior.com triplecrisis.com The Risks of 21st Century Stagflation February 2, 2010 Well before the global financial crisis finally broke in September 2008, most people in developing countries were already reeling under the effects of dramatic volatility in global food and fuel markets. From late 2006, prices of most primary commodities first increased very rapidly, then collapsed even more sharply from their peaks in May-June 2008. This was not due to real economic forces, but rather financial activity, specifically the involvement of investors in index funds. Commodities emerged as an attractive investment avenue for financial investors from around 2006, when the US housing market showed the initial signs of its ultimate collapse. This was aided by financial deregulation that allowed purely financial agents to enter such markets without requirements of holding physical commodities. This generated a bubble, beginning in futures markets that transmitted to spot markets as well. From mid-2008 commodity prices started falling as index investors started to withdraw, accentuated by the global recession. But the fall proved to be quite short-lived, as prices started rising again from early 2009, even before there was any real evidence of global output recovery. The price increase between Dec 2008 and Dec 2009 has been 16% for all food items as a group, 96% for metals and as much as 110% for oil. Once again, this increase does not reflect real <b>...</b>

Stagflation - when the economy is stagnant and inflation is growing

www.NewWaveSlave.com 3-31-11 David Murrin, author of "Breaking the Code of History" talks about the stagflation that is present in the UK and the West. Murrin speaks of gold as not only a good alternative, but the best alternative to the fiat currencies that are being overly produced by Western countries. David Murrin predicts gold to go much higher and China to lead the way as the dominant country in the future as the Dollar continues its decline and loses reserve currency status. I personally find David Murrin fascinating and I believe his approach is exactly correct. I hope to find more (new) interviews and post them as soon as possible.

This is because velocity being stable implies that there wasn't a move in aggregate demand. More examples of supply shocks: en.wikipedia.org

Growing up on a small farm in rural Minnesota, Renée Haugerud learned early on about commodities prices and how to hedge them. Based on an illustrious career in the world's leading commodities trading centers, in 1997 she founded Galtere Ltd., a commodity-focused global macro registered investment advisor with roughly $1 billion in assets under management today. The flagship Galtere International Master Fund boasts a 12.5% annualized return, net of fees, since inception in 1999. Galtere is a unique global macro fund with a strong focus on real assets and commodity fundamentals which have been found to influence other asset classes. In this Opalesque.TV interview, Renée gives her investment outlook for the next decade where she believes commodities will outperform other strategies during a period of "inverse stagflation" or "reverse stagflation". While the period of 1978-1982 lead to stagflation, ushering in a 30 year cycle of paper and financial outperformance, Renée identifies 2007-2011 as the beginning of a period where tangible asset will consistently beat paper products for an extended period.

The markets opened sharply lower this morning on initial weakness in oil, Jobless Claims and PPI data. Jobless Claims jumped unexpectedly and PPI data continues to show inflation is surging. The worst case scenario for the Federal Reserve is stagflation, which may be on the horizon. After the markets sold early, they roared back with a vengeance as oil and all commodities caught a major bid. Oil higher is actually good for the stock market and is explained in the video. The Dollar is getting pounded again. Take the one week free trial to the Research Center and Intra Day Stock Chat. Make money with the pros.

How To Go To Heaven: www.jesus-is-savior.com pajamasmedia.com April 1, 2011 Even I know when too much is too much. Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke? Not so much: The Federal Reserve's emergency programs in response to the financial crisis were successful in helping the economy and now the central bank is at risk of overdoing it, said Dallas Fed President Richard W. Fisher. The central bank "opened the floodgates" and "it worked," the regional bank chief, who votes on monetary policy this year, said during a speech today in Dallas. "We re- liquefied the economy. In my opinion, we might have done too much." Fisher, 62, reiterated a point he's made in the past week that the Fed may be going too far, even as he defended the central bank's initial decisions. But there's talk at the Fed at doing even more more — in the form of yet another round of quantitative easing. Or as we used to call it: running the printing presses nonstop. Here's the word from IBT: Douglas Borthwick of Connecticut-based Faros Trading believes the housing double dip will "translate into a double dip on the overall US economy, further rolling forward any stimulus-exit plans set by the Fed, and setting the stage for an announcement of QE3 in July." "Jobs and Housing remain the focus for the Fed, and both areas continue to face severe difficulties," said Borthwick. Try as Bernanke might, the housing market just won't reinflate. What is inflating are the prices on things consumers actually buy: US consumers face <b>...</b>

Why the heck do I have to turn to overseas news commentary to get an educated and well informed opinion (or in this case -fact) on current market situations. Stephen Long (Economic commentator) alludes that another large financial Company may have a fall-out. Lehman Bros is a possible and likely institution to implode, but perhaps Long was referring to INDYMAC bank which recently had a literal "Run On the Bank". It is amazing how little of the truly important information is revealed to the general public any how , On July 1st the LAtimes (Los Angeles Times) ran an article detailing the response of INDYMAC denying allegations that it is close to a collapse, but one needs to ask oneself "if they were -- would they admit it? ". Of course they would not, there - I answered it for you . here are the references.

Wed, 25 Jun 2008 NOTE: THIS IS A RETROSPECTIVE (HISTORICAL) POST Billionaire investor Warren Buffett voiced his concerns about "stagflation," or slowing in the US economy while inflation accelerates. "We're right in the middle of it right now,'' said Buffett, chairman of Omaha, Nebraska-based Berkshire Hathaway Inc., in an interview on Bloomberg Television during the commodities boom of 2008. "I think the `flation' part will heat up and I think the `stag' part will get worse.'' These two predictions were made by the Sage of Omaha about ten months ago. We should be glad only one of his two predictions ("the `stag' part will get worse") became reality - at least at the time this video was posted here, inflation has eased significantly from mid-2008 levels. Nonetheless, it is my conviction a second, more severe bout of inflation/stagflation is just lurking around the corner, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the other prediction. My apologies for the mediocre audio quality.

Tue, 5 May 2009 Andy Xie, former chief economist for Morgan Stanley in Asia, speaks with Martin Soong of Squawk Box about the consequences of massive money pumping by the Federal Reserve and central banks of other major economies. "We're seeing signs of inflation... I think next year, central banks will be forced into raising rates, even though the [global] economies will still be sluggish. But they will raise interest rates slowly, because they're terrified of pushing down the economies, so we will be stuck with inflation for a few more years. The most likely scenario for the world over the next few years is stagflation", warns the renowned economist.

Il ne faut pas se voiler la face, l'inflation est de retour. Mais cette inflation est accompagnée d'une croissance faible. Stagnation et inflation, cela n'est pas sans rappeler une situation que les jeunes générations ne connaissent pas : la stagflation. Certes, c'est l'envolée des prix de l'énergie qui pousse actuellement l'inflation vers le haut. Cela se voit parfaitement quand on superpose l'évolution des prix des produits pétroliers au reste, reste représenté ici sur le graphique par l'indice sous-jacent. Le sous-jacent c'est le vrai marqueur des pressions internes sur les prix. Cette configuration ne parait finalement pas si extraordinaire. Elle s'est déjà produite en 2008, comme vous pouvez le constater. Cela n'a pas pour autant débouché sur une hausse générale des prix. Pourquoi alors sommes-nous si inquiets à Xerfi sur le risque inflationniste ? Pourquoi anticiper une hausse générale des prix alors que rien de tel ne s'est produit lors de la dernière envolée du cours du baril ? www.xerfi.fr www.xerfi.fr
